>They often complain the syntax is unclear and requires paying attention to details. Attention to detail comes with the territory for programming roles. People who can't or don't want to pay attention to details are not fit to be programmers. We are working with precise binary digital machines, FFS. I sometimes find this attitude among students of my training courses - the misconception "computer, do what I mean, not what I say". Obviously such students don't do well in my course or in their career.
