I started off with BASIC which lends itself to a "top-down" approach, but these days I tend towards the XP style.
Because of my job, I can't hang around and wait for the juices to flow, I have a job to do and it needs to be done now! As a result, I tend to try and tackle the task in small sections, get the first bit working and then add the next. Sometimes it can be hard work, other times it comes easy.
While I know that this isn't exactly the XP formula, it's as close as I'm going to get.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
