To give some context, I’m a developer myself and once I had a conversation with someone who has not “tasted” programming, but was wondering about passion and career. I was asked what I like about programming. My answer was that my interest in it came from writing small scripts when I was young to automate things.

Aside from being a career, I’m curious what got you into coding ?

    I loved math, so a friend of my mother said I could make the computer do maths for me.

    6 years later and I’m still amazed computers do what I tell them. And now that I work with this everyday, I’m even more amazed anything works at all.
