Should primary schools offer young children the opportunity to learn to code?
Argument
Yes, programming is easy to include as a teaching material in the first math exercises students are given at school. In fact, programming is logic, and this is a lot like math.
Answer
This is a weak argument. The argument may be true, but it is not a logical argument for learning to code. The fact that it is easy to implement is not a strong argument because it does not address the consequences.
