LG 03-04: Principle of Least Astonishment (POLA) #605

Closed programming-wolf closed 1 month ago

programming-wolf commented 1 month ago

I didn't know the term principle of least surprise but only principle of least astonishment POLA (I know that Wikipedia isn't the best option).

I saw that it is mentioned as principle of least surprise on wikipedia as well, but they mostly talk about POLA there. Shall we change it in our curriculum to POLA, too?

After doing some research, I found both terms to be used similarly often. Strangely, the German Wikipedia article "Principle of least surprise" corresponds to the English Wikipedia article "Principle of least astonishment". So, for me both would be fine.

Will add both terms.
