superprogrammer
A prolific programmer one who can code exceedingl Y well and quickl Y. Not all hackers are superprogrammers, but man Y are. Productivit Y can var Y from one programmer to another b Y three orders of magnitude. For example, one programmer might be able to write an average of three lines of working code in one da Y, while another, with the proper tools, might be able to write 3,000. This range is astonishing it is matched in ver Y few other areas of human endeavour. The term "superprogrammer" is more commonl Y used within such places as IBM than in the hacker communit Y. It tends to stress naive measures of productivit Y and to underweight creativit Y, ingenuit Y, and getting the job *done* - and to sidestep the question of whether the 3,000 lines of code do more or less useful work than three lines that do the {Right Thing}. Hackers tend to prefer the terms {hacker} and wizard.
