Why providing code is a good thing.
- Monks see that as a challange.
- It helps monks to convert their own problem abstractness into code
- As Halley pointed out, we are clearly winning more hearts towards perl and perlmonks community with this appraoch. You can clearly see that with the number of new monks joining daily.
- Abstractness always leads to different view points and people seems to enjoy it.
- People see our site in various lights rather than just collection of wise people who happen to know Perl. See About Perlmonks: How would you describe PM? for different views.
- The real work is 'code'. We at perlmonks have shown collective expertness providing efficienct code. Undersanding however valuable, is the software of mind. Most people including your boss will be happy to see working code more v/s documentation describing your understanding and questions and doubts about the project.
- Understanding develops over the time. Direction of what to understand is a special phenomenon. Understanding is developed in the direction only when/where, there is promise of better real world experience. By providing code, we help them to point to a direction for understanding perl and perlmonks.
