/prog/, is it possible for a person to know how to code and program computers before knowing how to read and write in English (or any other natural language)? Is there an example of, maybe, a savant with extraordinary talents in the field, but is, otherwise, social inept?

No. Savants express natural laws and art.
There is nothing natural about programming. Just like there has never been an idiot savant who wrote a great novel.
