Language skills are a stronger predictor of programming ability than math knowledge.

I could’ve told you this. I can do programming. It’s not something I enjoy, but it’s not impossible for me like math is. I’d never want to be a full-time developer because I despise debugging, but it’s a job I could do if I wanted to enough.

I could never even pass most math classes. Totally different things. Most programing is like talking to a computer. You just have to figure out what to tell it and it’ll do it. Math is like looking at a million things that look exactly identical and being expected to know somehow (magic? crystal ball?) how they relate or how the million things that are identical are secretly somehow different. No idea how people do the latter while the former is comparatively easy for me.
