Why the need to Codeless languages like PWCT?

You have totally misunderstood what I was trying to say! You are arguing with me when I agree with you!!!

That is basically what I was trying to say.

I simply meant to say that certain people are born with what I could only describe as hard coded interests that allow them to become better programmers than most
in·ter·est : The state of wanting to know or learn about something or someone. This interest will fuel there desire and drive them to learn more about it.

You certainly seem to be saying that they are "born" with an "interest" in something. Those are the words you used. Basically as long as you keep using the word "born" then I am going to keep disagreeing with you. Attributes that lead to programming are acquired after birth.

OK so this is getting ridiculous! I do however agree that "born" was not the right word to use. If someone with an interest in creating, problem solving, etc. discovered programming at the same time as another person who only started because they thought it would be a good way to make a lot of money IMO the person with the true desire of learning these things purely out of interest and not wealth would have a greater chance of being the better programmer. Discussing my comment to this extent is a huge waste of time for both of us! I suggest we get back to work. :)
