OP I think there’s a lot of science behind a computer, from mathematics to physics at its highest levels. But some aspects of my activity, programming, might be considered more as an art than as a science. It’s like this schoolmate everyone had that could draw almost any cartoon or a teacher’s caricature without any painting studies.
I’ve met with quite a few colleagues that, with only a minimal background, could solve any computing problem quickly and elegantly. I even have worked with people that could take pieces of other people code and, without understanding the way it worked, combine them to make a different program.
I must admit that my programming abilities rely more on a natural gift than on hours of deep study.
Juan Maria.
