This research shows that aptitude for learning foreign languages is a stronger predictor of learning to program than basic maths knowledge.
"These results provide a novel framework for understanding programming aptitude, suggesting that the importance of numeracy may be overestimated in modern programming education environments."

@yabellini Cool, cool, cool. Génial. Geil.
@yabellini This is simultaneously obviously true and makes me irrationally angry that it's another thing that fucking Dijkstra was right about.
@yabellini math is also a language (many in fact) so don't party too soon.
