Yeah, everybody does, which is part of reason #2. I spent most of my life allergic to math, but I love playing around in chess variants and languages, which are sets of instruction rules. When I was in college I had a programmer friend, and we collaborated on games. I came up with the ideas and he programmed the ideas. From my elaborate charts for the decision tree of the artificial intelligence game opponents, he said I would make a great programmer. Too bad I always found it too intimidating.
