Describes a primitive programming style, one in which the programmer
relies on the computer's processing power instead of using his or her own
intelligence to simplify the problem, often ignoring problems of scale
and applying naive methods suited to small problems directly to large ones.
The term can also be used in reference to programming style: brute-force
programs are written in a heavyhanded, tedious way, full of repetition
and devoid of any elegance or useful abstraction.
