Well here is yet another programming methodology. “Artillery Programming” It is based on the premise of fire and adjust toward the target. Works great for small projects where the client has no idea of what they want or what can be done. You just “fire” something out there for them to comment on. (“rip up”) Then you take the comments and work toward the final product. The idea is that it is easier for the client to view something and tell you what is wrong than it is for them to tell you what they need.
