[code_Whisperer]

Perhaps I am an anomaly, but for me the love of coding has to do with the creative cycle. The fact that I am creating something tangible, that other people can use and might even find interesting, and out of nothing more than my own thoughts is very exciting. It's probably the same reason why I enjoy finding/buying blank pads of paper and interesting notebooks, journals, great pens, etc. I experience the same feeling composing, performing and/or listening to music. In fact, I believe that coding and music (and math) have a lot in common, and many of the best coders I've ever known are also musicians themselves.
