Perhaps because 2 entirely different skill-sets are required?
I highly doubt that you can generalize that. In other words, I doubt that all people, or most people who are good at math will be bad at programming.
No
Yes. If you are professionaly trained for both terms of engineering, there is a possibility that you can.
I believe this is because math is just getting answers, where as in coputer programming you have to apply the answers in the right place in order for it to work. In other words, you may be able to do a mathamatical equation, but you might not know where in the script to insert it. It's basically applying usless information in a place to make it usefull.
That's because different people have different skills, and preferences. However, don't decide too early that you are "bad at ... programming"; you may just have set yourself a "mental block". In other words, you might still learn it, once you get over your negative attitude about your own abilities.
Perhaps you are new at it. However, if you are good at math, then that seems to indicate that you are good at abstract reasoning; so you can still learn it.
It is quite unrelated. About the only similarity is that you use your keyboard. Instead of writing prose, in computer programming you have to write very precise instructions; if you commit some error, the program will not run properly. It might go into an infinite loop, for example, meaning that you need to interrupt the program forcefully.
If he intends to write his own code then it stands to reason he would need to know how to program.
You don't really need much computer programming for most engineering courses - except those where you specifically concentrate on computer science. And I don't see any reason why you should fail at OTHER, unrelated, subjects, just because you are bad at writing code. Finally, I think you shouldn't be afraid of writing code - you can still learn it.
wht is dignity in terms of technical writing?
wht is dignity in terms of technical writing?
Writing is fluid, yet structured, unpredictable yet follows a pattern. Depending on what major or program you are doing in university, it's a good idea to work on your writing skills. For example, if you are studying engineering and planning to be an engineer, then writing isn't important, only math is, but for other programs such as the humanities, social sciences and some of the sciences like biology, ecology and taxonomy, you will need to know how to write papers. Math on the other hand is done only once and it has a right or wrong answer which makes it predictable, easy to understand and fun to learn and practice. However, computer science is also writing intensive because in programming, you have to write code that the computer can understand, although it's similar to math in terms of the variables, understanding math will not help you at all with programming because like writing a paper, you have to have a fluid train of thought(I had people in my math class who know nothing about math but when they program, their code works perfectly).
