hurr programming

Name: Anonymous 2009-03-12 21:22

So I just found out I have an IQ of 73

I still want to learn programming though, should I even bother? I keep thinking I won't be as good as I should be at it.

What do you think /prog/?
I need answers only an anonymous board can provide.

Intelligence indicates capacity for learning more than anything else. It's the product of how much you can remember (both long and short term), how quickly you can commit these things to memory, and for how long you can maintain the memories.

For example, someone who cannot remember something for more than 10 seconds will appear to be stupid. Someone who cannot commit something to memory without 50 hours of being exposed to the same content will appear to be stupid. Someone who can only remember 5 things well will appear to be stupid.

Logic is a way of thinking and has nothing to do with your capacity for learning. Someone who is not logical at all can still be intelligent (e.g. women). Someone who is logical is not necessarily intelligent at all, they simply think in a certain way.
