Programming is 11/12ths Thinking

What is really happening? You see the fingers flying over the keyboard; you don't see the hours spent in talking to users, discussing the problems with coworkers, doing research and thinking the problems through.Really good developers do 90% or more of the work before they ever touch the keyboard; really understanding the requirements and devising an appropriate solution.Code is just the residue of the work.
