I’ve always flunked at math; and knowing how intertwined programming is with math, I’m skeptical of my ability to learn how to code. Can someone be too dumb to learn programming? If it helps, I’m mostly interested in learning Common Lisp.

    I think all three of the people replying to you are wrong. They all think you’re having trouble finding a project you want to work on. But I think you’re saying you struggle to understand how the logic of a program fits together into accomplishing anything.

    I think you should follow one of these lessons to produce some example code, and then use the debugger to watch it function line by line.
