A programming language helps us practically solve a problem.
For mathematical logical minded engineers which of course every good engineer
should be, a programming language helps you codify a solution and solve a real
problem.
But most of the problems that I have solved in networking and crypto has not
involved any programming at all.
It is only based on domain knowledge, reading RFCs, browsing and
understanding the
domain and through real life testing and thinking.
Programming is a good way to start but what is necessary is thinking and domain
knowledge to know where to apply what knowledge.
