    And similarly, i could read code in a language I dont know, understand what it does and how it works even if I don’t know the syntax well enough to write it myself

      Yeah, exactly. At least any fairly modern language. I don’t think I could just pick up assembly and read it without the class I took. Heck, I don’t think I could read it anymore now that it’s been several years since that class.
