It really shows his thought process in developing solutions to problems. The only other way is practice, and in particular practice with languages that offer functional features. Notice his use of lambdas, assignment of existing functions&amp;#x2F;constructors to more accurate names (Passport instead of dict, day 4), and higher order functions (quantify).&lt;p&gt;Those are things that really help in algorithmic code by increasing accuracy of the names of things to the application (almost creating a domain specific language).&lt;p&gt;[0] &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;norvig&amp;#x2F;paip-lisp&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;norvig&amp;#x2F;paip-lisp&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain><item><author>systemvoltage</author><text>How do you algorithmically code like this?
