Re:The language brain matters more for learning programming ... by GoblinSlayer on Saturday May 03, 2025 @10:01AM (#43879089)
Overlap between programming and math is quite small, e.g. halting problem is solvable in programming (by flow analysis) but isn't solvable in math. Programming deals only with practical problems and can be completely guided by practical considerations, while math requires abstract outlandish skills - exact opposite. Why talk about math at all if it's already well known that programming is engineering?
