Programming and math start at opposite ends but will eventually meet in the middle,
they both deal with computation (modification through time).
Only math as a language originates from past assertions to model a determinant factor,
while programming deals with future assertions as to produce determinant factors.
Its alot easier to make arbitrary mistakes in the latter then the former.
Haha probably the most unintentionally funny and ironic comment I've read in awhile. Given more than 50% of software projects fail, which is worse than chance, I think it's safe to say the no one really understands software engineering either. Like math, they just get used to doing some things that seem to work better than others.
