I suspect that most of what is coding (ie, logic) is pretty intuitive, and only obfuscated by environmental factors like learning syntax, obscure jargon, and especially learning to execute code in your head.
However, it's been a long time since I learned to code myself and my own learning experience is lost to the mists of time, so I'd really love to hear from people who are either learning right now or have recently learned how to program: what were/are the hard parts for you?
I'm not just asking out of curiosity - I'm trying to build a better programming paradigm (based on visual programming) and a key goal for me is to make building software more accessible to new entrants.
