Everybody learns natrual language, yet large number of people cannot learn programming language. It sounds like learning programming language is harder than learning natrual language. This is not intuitive to me. A lot of concept in natrual language are much more abstract and difficult to understand than the assignment concept. Even the leap from one apple, two apple to one, two is a much bigger conceptual leap. I see the story as a failure in education.
