If you are a progammer chances are good that you have heard something about Donald Knuth creator of the books The Art of Computer Progamming. InformIT.com has an interview with him. Andrew Binstock and Donald Knuth converse on the success of open source, the problem with multicore architecture, the disappointing lack of interest in literate programming, the menace of reusable code, and that urban legend about winning a programming contest with a single compilation.
