Though some problems are "easier" to solve with clever solutions. There is definitely a learning curve at the start. It could be more difficult, but <a href="http://compsci.ca/blog/on-entering-the-computer-science-field-with-no-programming-background/" title="on entering the computer science field with no programming background" rel="nofollow">not impossible</a> to catch up from little experience. Though the entire field requires a lot of personal practice and commitment, so having interest in computer science is crucial. You don’t have to be clever to write code, it’s all quite programmatic.

I've been to BHAM uni and study java programming and I failed. Well, part of that I didn't get any help and then I lost interest in programming. With so many snobish and impertinents students I couldn't get help at all. At one point one of the lecturer and personal tutor said to me that I am too stupid. The questions are: To learn programming, do you have to be clever? Is it because my 5th language stayed in way of understanding the dam programming? Is it because I never been exposed to computer programming? Thanks Hey guys
