Rob Pike's 5 Rules of Programming
Rob Pike's 5 Rules of Programming
Rule 1. You can't tell where a program is going to spend its time. Bottlenecks occur in surprising places, so don't try to second guess and put in a speed hack until you've proven that's where the bottleneck is.
Rule 2. Measure. Don't tune for speed until you've measured, and even then don't unless one part of the code overwhelms the rest.
Rule 3. Fancy algorithms are slow when n is small, and n is usually small. Fancy algorithms have big constants. Until you know that n is frequently going to be big, don't get fancy. (Even if n does get big, use Rule 2 first.)
Rule 4. Fancy algorithms are buggier than simple ones, and they're much harder to implement. Use simple algorithms as well as simple data structures.
Rule 5. Data dominates. If you've chosen the right data structures and organized things well, the algorithms will almost always be self-evident. Data structures, not algorithms, are central to programming.
Pike's rules 1 and 2 restate Tony Hoare's famous maxim "Premature

Vim 'Indentation Hell': A Best Effort Guide

I love Vim. But it isn't perfect, unfortunately.
And one part that is particularly confusing when setting up for the first time is indentation.
This guide strives to cover what options are relevant, what they do, how they interact, and how to set them up for most popular indentation styles.

Meet The Cast

Vim has 5 options relating to (manual) indentation:
