Abstract

In computer science classes you can observe that students are able to solve a problem – say sorting a list – but fail completely writing a programme that does the job. This barrier between intuitive solution and the finding and explication of an algorithm can be overcome, if the programmer learns to analyse her or his own intuitions connected to the task.
