architects take programming courses??

what apps have they written?

Eric Stevens
Would you like to consider that you have a narrow view of the application of the computer?

There is much more to it than 'apps'.

why does an architect need to know how to program?

they need to know how to use computers since design is now done on a computer, but they do not need to know how to write apps.

a few might have a sideline job though.

those producing the best work are using macs or windows systems because that's where the best tools are.

Written by programmers who take photographs? ... maybe by photographers who write programs?

or maybe photographers with an eye for art rather than technology.
