    Donald Knuth is one of the greatest and most impactful computer scientists and mathematicians ever. He is the recipient in 1974 of the Turing Award, considered the Nobel Prize of computing. He is the author of the multi-volume work, the magnum opus, The Art of Computer Programming. He made several key contributions to the rigorous analysis of the computational complexity of algorithms. He popularized asymptotic notation, that we all affectionately know as the big-O notation. He also created the TeX typesetting which most computer scientists, physicists, mathematicians, and scientists and engineers use to write technical papers and make them look beautiful.

    Even Legends get boring days too. What makes them Legends is that they push through it for the joy it will later bring everyone. Thank you Donald

    Knuth is one of the old school, heavy weights. His books have been a mainstay for me since my undergraduate days. The other ones being Numerical Recipes and The Art of Electronics. Nice to see you take the time to interview him.

    My key take away is that first writing of a program is on a piece of paper!

      He has a brain that requires 10 outputs (mouths). He’s a pinnacle mind in tech.

    Its interesting. I wonder when the computers started, I think internet was born in 1992 (as www), but I can´t figure how they started to do de hardware and the first software. As far as I know it started in 1960 by the US military. Anyway its like magic that this kind of machine works
