It's like the educational equivalent of a gateway drug. Some of the electives I took like programming really encouraged it and that's what kept me interested even afterwards with subpar instructors.

    I think at a certain point, you should be able to drop math as a subject and take programming instead. There's no shortage of math concepts in programming that still require understanding of underlying concepts, but I can easily say if I had that option in school, I'd have learned way more in a programming class than I ever did in math.
