So true! For this reason the Transport Data Science module I lead focusses on applications, taking the initiative (you choose the topic you apply the science to and datasets), and empirical exploration. Written for early programmers but equally applicable now

@robinlovelace but you do need to also have a solid knowledge of math and logical reasoning and preferably physics! In the case of Turing he was apparently also very good in biology / evolution theory. Personally for me programming is just formalisation of workflows and math / geometry. Then, yes there is also the art of programming i.e. making same workflow run faster, more robust, code being better organized...
