Best Answer

Because you are writing code that tells the computer what to do. The conception that mathematics is useful to programming is a debunked myth because I know a lot of people in my computer science program before I switched to something else who are terrible with math but are very good at essay writing and programming. In summary, the reader(which in this case is a computer) has to understand the code you write to it.

Is programming an art or an engineering discipline?

Highly likely an art than a science, most people get the misconception that you have to be good at math to be a good programmer, but it's not necessary. In fact, creativity will serve a programmer very well meaning that if you're great with languages and essays, then programming and coding should be easy for you. I did computer science once, and I highly regretted it because it was too much programming which required creativity which is something that I don't possess. ========== May I suggest that engineering is creatively applied science? Computer programming requires both creativity and an ability to think very logically and follow set rules. Because following those rules leans more towards engineering than art, I'd lean towards programming being more engineering than art.


Is computer programming interesting?

To programmers, yes. To non-programmers, not so much.


Is Python used for computer programming or software programming?

Computer programming is the process of making software. The expression software programming isn't much used, but would mean exactly the same.Python is a general purpose interpreted programming language. It is not suitable for highly optimised code, or for operating system programming, but a good choice for many other situations.


Is computer science all about programming?

Pretty much, but it also includes the design of computers (computer architecture). Also, programming varies widely and does not simply include making the applications/programs you use when you think of using a computer.


What majors suit you if you are good at math but bad at accounting finance and computer programming?

Is being good at math and economics but weak in computer programming going to cause problems in physics chemistry and engineering?

Not as much as weakness in science - no good being an expert at programming if you don't understand what it is you are trying to make the computer calculate. I'd be mroe worried about the relevance or not of economics!
