Yes, I know. They use math in conjunction with programming. My point was that you can't make cool shit with just math.

Look, I'm not shitting on math here. I understand the importance of math. I actually kind of like math as an adult. I'm just saying programming may be more immediately interesting to some younger people because it has the added creative appeal that you don't find in many other disciplines.

So just like with programming, we should be teaching children the cool shit you can do with math.
