I actually found programming easy. I started taking CS classes because they were a simple way to boost my GPA. When all words are cryptic, programming can be extremely well-suited.

Coding mistakes come from a lack of attention and tooling, not from innate skill. Being willing to take the time to proofread, use a spellchecker and write unit tests is important for anyone, regardless of learning disabilities.
