    That'd be much more valuable :thumbsup: After cooking a few meals outside of my parents house, I quickly installed a fire-alarm. It has saved my arse quite some times. The text that "everyone should learn programming" is coming from some outdated dimwits from the teaching-industry that does not even know the difference between "operating" a computer and "programming" one. Schooling should be banned, and education reinstated.

      Many are suggesting that everyone learn computer programming, and that coding be a core component of our educational system. Here's a more measured approach.

      I can see teaching code as a good way to introduce logic, but then it would just be a tool as opposed to a goal in itself.

        Back in my day we didn't have debug points. We used printf and we liked it. :-\

          Kids nowadays never use punctuation. I'm guessing the semicolons rule out C#.

          that's a COLON to you!

          If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams
          You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun
          Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein

              You're right. Priorities are important.
