I'm definitely faster at typing than writing though — especially so when it comes to something like code that often requires in-place editing, shuffling statements around etc.
I do like to work with paper & pen but moreso for ideation, diagramming, or todo lists rather than more "structured" inputs.

Here is on old thread discussing it, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3802131 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3802131 The new iPad Calculator, is a more recent example of such ideas.
