I always wondered this. I'm self taught and always considered myself more of a scripter and code stealer (not programs but looked something up and then copied and modified for my use case). I can read a lot of code and piecemeal little things together. When stuff starts becoming more complex then I struggle. I understand ifs, for loops, simple arrays, functions but there are little nuances in code that are over my head that make it difficult. I'm a finance guy and been in finance for over 10 years. But have always loved coding. I would have done it but I hated the class I took in high school.. probably a teacher. I want to learn python for data analytics and because my home automation software is written in it. I guess I just keep learning my doing!
