CNN's John Defterios asks computer scientists to share their thoughts on distributed systems. In particular, they talk about TLA+, a programming language that lets you think outside the box of code. The Turing award-winning scientist also talks about his favorite algorithm and how it can be taught without hours of work.
Leslie Lamport is a computer scientist & mathematician who won ACM’s Turing Award in 2013 for his fundamental contributions to the theory and practice of distributed and concurrent systems. He also created LaTeX and TLA+, a high-level language for “writing down the ideas that go into the program before you do any coding.”
