I’m Not A Programmer But Programming Skills Are Still Extremely Useful

Mistaken Goal

I don’t work in IT, software development, or anything even closely related to those fields so I’m often surprised at how much programming I do in my daily work life. At times I write scripts or light programs (e.g., this set of Excel macros ), usually to save time and ensure accurate, well-documented, and reproducible results. More often, I directly use some of the skills of programming, especially flow control and abstraction, to make tasks easier, elegant, or possible.
