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), [JavaScript](javascript.md) or [Rust](rust.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. It is mostly done for money and/or creating an image for oneself. 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. [zen](zen.md) and the famous [Tao of Programming](tao.md) (yes, it's kind of a [joke](jokes.md) but it's rooted in the reality of a common hacker's mindset, programming can truly be kind of a [meditation](meditation.md) and pursuit of enlightenment, often leading one to asking deeper questions about the world). 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 taken to a high level 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 a [white](white.md) [man](man.md) is an advantage.

Many people say that learning programming opens your eyes in a certain new way (with some however claiming the contrary that programming will rather close your eyes), you then see the world like never before (but that's probably kind of true of almost all skills taken to a high level 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) and changes you somehow. **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 a [white](white.md) [man](man.md) is an advantage.
**Can you do programming without math?** Short answer: no. Long answer: no, you can't.
