Pfft... In protest, I won't even bother to write a retort to this unsubstantiated claim.

- silkodyssey 17y agoI think the assertion has some merit in as far as writing allows us to communicate our thoughts with a higher level of precision. It's relatively easy to have a vague idea about something but it's a different matter to explain it with well reasoned arguments. With programming it is the same. It is sometimes easy to conceptualize the steps required to solve a particular problem or implement a particular algorithm but when the time comes to translate it to program code it can be more difficult as we have to think about all the little details.
