#157884 - Often fast but hard to multitask Responding to: ???'s previous message |
Index-finger writing can be very fast. The only bad part is that it is hard to perform the writing as a background process.
Being a touch-typist, I have the advantage that I can read documentation or look and talk with someone while typing, since I don't need to look at the keyboard or the monitor. It is also easier to visualise new source code a number of lines in advance, while I'm typing. Being able to handle the typing as a background process really makes it worth knowing touch-typing. Dvorak or Qwerty would probably not matter too much for a software developer, since so large percent of the key presses are "exotic" keys. |
