      It really depends on the code! In the work I do, how well I understand the maths I’m trying to implement probably has the biggest impact, but it also depends on how well I know the programming language I’m using, and of course whether or not the programming language I’m using is any good at what I want it to do.

      I’d say on average once I have a piece of code finished it only takes a day or two to get it working right, but it’s hard to say for sure 🙂

      It’s the best feeling when it does work though!
