Edsger W. Dijkstra Quotes

A collection of quotes by Edsger W. Dijkstra.

Edsger W. Dijkstra (1930-2002) was a Dutch computer scientist, mathematician, and software engineer. He is well known for his significant contributions to the field of computer programming and his influential research in algorithm design. Dijkstra developed the shortest path algorithm (known as Dijkstra's algorithm) which laid the foundation for modern graph theory. He also heavily influenced the development of structured programming through his work on the influential programming language ALGOL 60. Dijkstra's contributions continue to shape the field of computer science, and he is widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in the history of computing.
