Best Answer

High-level programming languages separate the programmer from the machine to such a degree that it is not necessary to understand how binary computers work in order to program them, thus the need to be good at mathematics is greatly reduced. This makes it possible to write good code with just an elementary understanding of mathematics. However, writing efficient code is another matter altogether. Being able to bash out quick and dirty solutions does not a good programmer make.

Why is it that some people who are good at math but bad at essays are also bad at programming in terms of writing code?

I highly doubt that you can generalize that. In other words, I doubt that all people, or most people who are good at math will be bad at programming.


Why is it that some people who are good at math have trouble with programming in terms of writing code?

Perhaps because 2 entirely different skill-sets are required?


Is it true that if you are not good at computer programming in terms of writing code you will not do well in computer hardware engineering?

No


Can you still be an engineer if you are not good at computer programming in terms of writing code?

Yes. If you are professionaly trained for both terms of engineering, there is a possibility that you can.


Why is it that I'm good at math but bad at writing and programming in terms of writing code for every programming language?

That's because different people have different skills, and preferences. However, don't decide too early that you are "bad at ... programming"; you may just have set yourself a "mental block". In other words, you might still learn it, once you get over your negative attitude about your own abilities.


Why is it that some people who are good at math have difficulty with computer programming in terms of writing code?

Perhaps you are new at it. However, if you are good at math, then that seems to indicate that you are good at abstract reasoning; so you can still learn it.


How is computer programming in terms of writing code related to writing a paper?

It is quite unrelated. About the only similarity is that you use your keyboard. Instead of writing prose, in computer programming you have to write very precise instructions; if you commit some error, the program will not run properly. It might go into an infinite loop, for example, meaning that you need to interrupt the program forcefully.

Does a mechanical engineer need to know programming in terms of writing your own code?

If he intends to write his own code then it stands to reason he would need to know how to program.


Is it true that if you are good at math but bad at programming in terms of writing code in every programming language you will fail engineering?

You don't really need much computer programming for most engineering courses - except those where you specifically concentrate on computer science. And I don't see any reason why you should fail at OTHER, unrelated, subjects, just because you are bad at writing code. Finally, I think you shouldn't be afraid of writing code - you can still learn it.
