Software is eating the world. I can't put it better than the article, “Coding is the new literacy: Like the ability to read, what was once optional will soon be a basic requirement.” I can speak to my field: in the sciences, coding is ubiquitous across disciplines. Used in theory and experiment. Some have called it the 'third pillar of scientific inquiry'. I can imagine coding will repace or at least become a useful skill in many more industries, such as medicine, law, business, even truck driving.
