I suppose I mean compiling and running ... but somehow I still think that the notion
of compiling and running the code (in the next few minutes) makes me spend more time
thinking about what I'm writing, maybe subconciously I also know that it will save
time if I fix any problems now and not later.
Hmm, the psychology of programming.

Right.
