Who on Earth came up with calling computer science a forward language? By that logic, so is symbolic mathematics and logic, chemical equations, etc. Programming languages (more so some than others) have a lot in common with advanced math (ex lambda calculus) and almost nothing in common with foreign languages... not that both should not be taught.
