I teach computer science at Montana State University. I am the father of three sons who all know I am a computer programmer and one of whom, at least, has expressed interest in the field. I love computer programming and try to communicate that love to my sons, the students in my classes and anyone else who will listen.
A question I am increasingly getting from relatives, friends and students is:
Given AI, should I still consider becoming a computer programmer?
My response to this is: “Yes, and…”


im 100% on elementary logic as it has very braod value across domain. Some majors in my college had reqs that was math or computer science which makes sense to me. I do feel that before people learn coding in general the initial classes should introduce flowcharting as well.
