Discovered: Oct 16, 2022 11:08 Brent Victor from 2012: Learnable Programming <– QUOTE: Programming is a way of thinking, not a rote skill. Learning about "for" loops is not learning to program, any more than learning about pencils is learning to draw.
People understand what they can see. If a programmer cannot see what a program is doing, she can't understand it.
