Everyday life skills?

Life is pain. Anyone who says any different is either selling something or the government.

Everyday life skills?

 

You don't have to be a genius to code... programming isn't so complicated... it's solving a problem and then creating an algorithm with that solution... basic everyday life skills... basic mathematical operations and some logical thinking... is all it takes to start!!

I agree. I can code and I am not a genius. I just think logically.

That video was very enlightening.  Makes me feel much less intimidated when successful people like Gabe Newell, Bill Gates, and Mark Zuckerberg say that you don't have to be a genius to learn this practice.  I think a lot of students, like myself, who take a chance with Computer Science at their local universities, get so stressed and intimidated by the amount of information that these curriculums throw at us.  Instead, we should be encouraging young minds to be creative and collaborative with others to write unique and interesting programs; not shove exceedingly difficult concepts down their throats and ask for regurgitated information.
