Can kids under 10 be possibly taught coding, without even mentioning the word syntax to them ??🤔🤔🤔

more programming than coding

What's the distinction?

Good question!

"Programming and coding are closely related but not the same. Programming is the process that covers problem-solving, designing, building, and maintaining software, while coding is the step of writing the actual instructions in a programming language. Both are important and work together to create complete software solutions." - Geeksforgeeks
