What Does DWIM Stand For?
DWIM stands for Do What I Mean
DWIM, or "Do What I Mean," is a programming concept that aims to minimize user frustration by interpreting user input in a way that reflects their intended outcome, even if the input is not technically correct. This approach enhances user experience by allowing for more flexible interactions, where the system automatically adjusts commands or actions to align with the user's implicit intentions, thereby reducing the need for precise syntax.
