I teached myself Basic on our C64 when I was 11 with a manual my father had. A year later we had a few hours of introduction to programming in our math class. When I read the first very abstract lesson, I thought: My god, this so hard, it’s so difficult to understand. But when I saw the code examples on the next page I had to laugh, because they very incredibly simple. It’s just the way the math book talked about them was too abstract for me. I then got for the First Time the idea: Could it be that all the other math I have problems with could be much easier if it was explained differently to me?
