5. "I'm one of the culprits who created this problem. I used to write those programs
back in the 1960s and 1970s, and was proud of the fact that I was able to squeeze a few
elements of space out of my program by not having to put a 19. Back then, it was very
important. We used to spend a lot of time running through various mathematical exercises
before we started to write our programs so that they could be very clearly delimited with
respect to space and the use of capacity. It never entered our minds that those programs
would have lasted for more than a few years. As a consequence, they are very poorly
documented. If I were to go back and look at some of the programs I wrote 30 years ago, I
would have one terribly difficult time working my way through step-by-step."
