That's the key here. Variables/abstractions are grasped at the "formal operational" stage of cognitive development. A functional language with concrete elements( e.g table cells ) side steps this requirement. Reduce USEFUL APIs to concrete constructs and it'll be accessible to a lower common denominator.
- skeptical 15y agoYou guys are slowly walking away from the main stream concept of programming. Not that you're not right, but what's the point of the article then? So, using boolean syntax on google, is that programming too? I wouldn't say it isn't, but if we're talking about that than that already happened and the use of the word 'coding' becomes hilarious.
- da_dude4242 15y agoI'm not sure I agree with the article. I feel neutral. I'm talking about some sort of middle ground. A concrete subset of a more capable ontology. Imagine if we had a Smalltalk OS/platform and something like Scratch was a seamlessly integrated interface for example. http://scratch.mit.edu/ http://scratch.mit.edu/
