The main problem is that goto statement is the only instruction in all programming languages that can change the PC (Program Counter) register in the processor and this is not right

Why the need to Codeless languages like PWCT?Great I agree with you the point is I'm not saying that programmers are only CS graduates I mean if anyone wants to be a programmer he must know of things like 'Data Structures' and 'Algorithms', Am I wrong? without these two important fields he just write a messy code that executes what is required by any means. Not matter how he learn these, but he has to.

Why the need to Codeless languages like PWCT?I agree with this too much abstraction is too far away from code and this leads to someone who doesn't know what he coded.

Why the need to Codeless languages like PWCT?It is not fear I just want more respect to this field and There is a difference between frameworks and this Visual Programming I'm sure that visual programming cannot produce a large critical project or even a medium one and there are things that are taking time making a simple "Hello World" program took me double time of coding it

Why the need to Codeless languages like PWCT?it was written in SuperNova language which was invented by the same inventor of PWCT

Why the need to Codeless languages like PWCT?Bravo you analyzed it very well
-
Why the need to Codeless languages like PWCT?The point is "It will not help" it just make things worse by making people believe that programming is very easy and there is no need to study specific topics to do it. I don't mind people who are not CS graduates to be programmers, but they have to study the basic concepts of the field. It is not just like that.

Why the need to Codeless languages like PWCT?it is not as you got it I mean if someone is inventing an algorithm, he doesn't need to be a programmer I'm ok with that but imagine a programmer who doesn't know how to algorithm a programmer who doesn't know how to choose between different algorithms for the same problem you got my point?

Why the need to Codeless languages like PWCT?a code you didn't write is no code Consider Error Tracing as an example
-
Why the need to Codeless languages like PWCT?Ok you are right, but I believe that a programmer must have studied certain fields like 'Algorithms' and 'Data Structures' to be a good programmer Am I wrong?

Why the need to Codeless languages like PWCT?Introduction Before I begin, if you don't know what is PWCT it is abbreviation for (Programming Without Code Technology). A new programming language created by Mohamed El-Fayed to create applications without writing the code. It is one of the Visual Programming languages. Background Here is the link for more information: PWCT The Point The point is why we need something like this? What will be fun and entertaining about programming if we don't write code? In my opinion, our work (as programmers) have two fun parts (I mean fun for brain): Thinking for new algorithms and writing the code itself. Let's think a little bit. What is the purpose? As Mohammed said, it is to make everyday user create his own programs without previous knowledge of code. WHAT???????????????? And what will we do? Selling groceries??????? You know something? In Egypt, it's been more than 2 years now while we are trying to form our own union for Egyptian programmers. And for what? It is for protecting us from any other outsiders. I mean here in Egypt any graduate from Business college, Medicine, Pharmacy, Engineering and even people who didn't complete their education can take some courses in C# or Java and Halaloia they are programmers!!!!!!!!!!! I mean there is a big difference between a Computer Sciences graduate and those people. They don't study 'Data Structures', 'Algorithms', 'AI', .... etc. They just study how to code, how to deal with a database. If you had a look on their apps you will find that they use only the Arrays in all their work. They don't know that there are things like 'Stack', 'Queue', 'List', 'Dictionary', ...etc. But now? Here comes someone who says to them "Welcome all ignorant people. From today you ALL are programmers with PWCT". And what makes me angry, that there are a lot of people who are happy with this. If you check the reviews on the home page of PWCT website you will understand what I mean. They made an interview with him in SourceForge!!!!!!!!!! It cannot even be used for educational purposes. I mean a programmer must be educated and trained to write code from his first day, so he can love it. If he started with dragging actions from a GUI he will be lazy to deal with code. You can download the latest version and use it for only 5 minutes and I'm sure you will throw your laptop from the window. I need to know your opinion about this new technology that will make us NOTHING!!!!!
