Imagine sitting there, talking to your computer, and trying to get the notations right.

If err unequal nil opening bracket, no no don't open the racket opening bracket... BRACKET, do you know what a bracket is No don't do a do while, delete delete. Don't delete everything... sigh

Well something like that, I imagine it being a very painful experience.




Maybe you could use little clicks and pops with your mouth to signify different characters. The computer could learn which one is which. That way instead of typing

"if (int i = 0; i < count; i++)"

you could say something like

"if beep int i click zero boop i bop count boop i pop pop zing"

This would achieve the same thing, but much faster and with less effort than typing.


If saying that is faster than typing it, you're really slow at typing.


Or debugging. Goodness. I can only imagine.
