That's probably because most people can't code algorithms in one shot either.

What if there was a text based debugger and you had it generate a bunch of test cases then had it iterate and try different version of the algorithms. from what I've seen it's not too bad at coming up with code changes based on errors and descriptions of the problem its running into.

this was pretty interesting.

I was thinking the same thing. Because it is good at tweaking based on further responses. You can iterate using unit tests. Very interesting
