>Nobody sketches code on a white board or notepad as part of their daily work.
Sometimes when I'm trying to plan something which requires a lot of thinking I take a piece of paper, write bits of code, draw schematics of the flow, schematics of data structures. If I am planning the architecture of an application which isn't trivial, I like to go to the whiteboard and draw. Even if I have it in my mind, visualizing it helps me find improvements.
