Yeah, I'd be pretty wary of a dev who needed clarification on DAGs...
They probably know what it is, but it's a bad point if they're trying to paint DAGs as esoteric CS stuff for the average programmer. I needed to use a topological sort for work coding 2 weeks ago, and any time you're using a build system, even as simple as Make, you're using DAGs. Acting like it's a tough concept makes me wonder why I should accept the rest of the argument.
Can't say I have a strong feeling about Gradle though 🤷♀️
Agreed. Why would a person need to look it up when the name literally describes it. Directed? Means connections are in a single direction. Acyclic? A-cyclic = non-cyclical, doesn't have cycles. Graph is... well a graph.
Which part does the author think an average programmer should struggle with?
