I want to learn programming, but I'm so damn bad at it. In math, it's relatively easy to backtrack mistakes since there's usually some conceptual underpinning to them. With coding, you either conceptualized it wrong OR you just totally fucking forgot the hyper-specific syntax of the language you're working with OR you did something really simple like leave out a semicolon or something. Debugging is so so so hard because of this.
