Congratulations to her for learning the basics, but I find it annoying that this article seems to consider "knowing how to code" as a binary variable, either you know it or you don't. What she really did is learn to add a basic website feature in Python, which is cool but not comparable to a lot of other real "coding" going on out there.

After that there's degrees of capability, but before learning to write software in any language there's a period of "duhhhh i don't get it" and at a certain point people get a "oh! i get it". For some that's very quick, for others it takes forever. Once they're past that stage then it's a matter of improving skill and building a style and repertoire of techniques.
