+    Laws of Computer Programming:
+            1. Any given program, when running, is obsolete.
+            2. Any given program costs more and takes longer.
+            3. If a program is useful, it will have to be changed.
+            4. If a program is useless, it will have to be documented.
+            5. Any given program will expand to fill all available memory.
+            6. The value of a program is proportional the weight of its output.
+            7. Program complexity grows until it exceeds the capability of
+                    the programmer who must maintain it.
