I found this really useful. Quite often when I'm working on problems I tend to get an idea from reading the brief and begin experimenting straight away. By doing this I learn a lot about various tools and techniques however this process usually ends with me banging my head against the wall for many hours only to have to completely refactor my solution, if not abandon it entirely.

The simple way in which you have explained the problem-solving approach is very helpful.

Thanks!

This is such a detailed guide! I've always struggled with Coding Incrementally and going for code first approach. This guide gave me deep insight on how the thinking process should be to solve a problem efficiently. Thanks a lot! ♥

Excellent! This reminds me of an old book, can't remember its name now. But it is key to make a pause and solve the problem before actually coding the solution.
