Why should you learn to write programs?
Writing programs (or programming) is a very creative
and rewarding activity. You can write programs for
many reasons, ranging from making your living to solving
a difficult data analysis problem to having fun to helping
someone else solve a problem. This book assumes that

you know how to program you will figure out what you want
to do with your newfound skills.
