Code is both math and language. - Deliberate literature practice involves as much (or more) reading as it does writing. Tangentially, code review is an important way to both learn how other people express ideas in other ways, and to learn new features and tricks to express yourself in a given language. - Deliberate practice in mathematics begins with rote memorization, and later with repeated application of algorithms. So practice could first involve typing common algorithms, including brackets and other grammar, until they (e.g. a FOR loop) can be typed from memory. Or possibly automating this step, and practicing using the automation. Later practice could involve repeated application of algorithms - possibly algorithms of your own making.
