Why some people here insist that programming/coding is an art form?
No, despite how much you'd like to be and see it happening, it is not and will not be.

Being a programmer is not going to get you there if thats what you need.
I dont really understand the mindset, I think that is because I am an engineer. Meaning by training, schooling, and occupation i did industrial and civil engineering for 10 years. I tend to take the software engineering literally, well more literally than most...
Its kind of the antithesis of being an artist to me. Still beauty in it.
as they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder but software development is an engineering discipline and won't be considered as an artistic medium not now not ever.
I can understand the philosophical dimension of software engineering but I am not even interested to entertain even for a second the concept of the art of writing software because it's just insane.
