From what I understand, "No code" input is almost fully declarative. Examples are Lotus 123, Oracle forms, Excel without macros. There are no loops, no dictionaries, classes are simple objects mapped to a database table. Functions are inbuilt and most you can do is to compose them. The premise of "No code" is that there will come a time where people will simply declare and compose what exists instead of creating some new code. Take from that what you will.
- otabdeveloper4 6y agoThe intuition that declarative programming fits the human brain much better is correct, but I'd hesitate to call this "no code". You're just moving towards a more mathematical code formalism.

So is pure functional programming, as well as idealized logic programming (actual Prolog falls short of this in important cases), and some forms of relational programming. > There are no loops Often there are via recursive/circular references, for which the platform often has bailout logic to prevent infinite loops. > no dictionaries, How is an Excel table different from a dictionary?
