Browsing dejanews I saw discussion of this problem, but didn't see the
reference I like the most. The discussion is mixed with the "kindness"
thread, so there are way to messages to check. So in case no one mentioned
it, and people are still interested - I'd recommend Wirth article which is
ONLINE.
To quote from the suggested reading page of my site (which is of course
highly recommended):
Program Development by Stepwise Refinement - N. Wirth
Wirth (the creator of Pascal) describes what we would now call
"top-down" development. He goes through an example program - for
solving the 8-Queens puzzle, and shows how to break the code down
into manageable pieces.
