As long as we're on this topic, I'm curious about the reasons for
physicists & engineers writing their own code, especially if they
are not also software professionals.  Seems like one would be better
off describing the task (solution method included) to a professional
programmer.  I have seen a lot of (non-software) professional time
burned up with very poor relative results.
