# Programming

Programming is the act and [art](art.md) of writing computer [programs](program.md); it involves creation of [algorithms](algorithm.md) and [data structures](data_structure.md) and implementing them in [programming languages](programming_language.md).

You may also encounter the term [coding](coding.md) which is used by [noob](noob.md) [wannabe programmers](soydev.md), so called "coders" or [code monkeys](code_monkey.md). "Coding" doesn't reach the quality of programming, it is done in baby handholding languages like [Python](python.md) and [JavaScript](javascript.md) by people with very shallow knowledge of technology and its context, barely qualified to turn on a computer (like [jewtubers](youtube.md)), who have flooded the computer industry since it became lucrative. What they do is not real programming. Do not try to imitate them.

At high level programming becomes [spiritual](spirituality.md). Check out e.g. the famous [Tao of Programming](tao.md) (yes, it's kind of a [joke](jokes.md) but it's based on reality, programming can truly be kind of a [meditation](meditation.md) and pursuit of enlightenment). Many people say that learning programming opens your eyes in a certain new way, you then see the world like never before (but that's probably kind of true of almost all skills so this may be a [shit](shit.md) statement). Others say too much programming cripples you mentally and gives you [autism](autism.md). Anyway it's [fun](fun.md). Programming requires a good knowledge of advanced [math](math.md). Also probably at least above average [IQ](iq.md), as well as below average social intelligence. Being [man](man.md) is an advantage.
