From Tim Stevenson
I rejoice at Niall Firth’s paean to the idea of teaching coding to kids (6 September, p 38). I recall that Arthur C. Clarke wrote: “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” In this age when magical thinking is still far too abundant, anything that demythologises the wonderful gadgets technology provides us with is to be welcomed with open arms.
