Programming The Bigger Picture

Programming is required by designers to achieve things that need: variation, interaction, generation, repetition, calculation, and scalability.

Being able to understand theses principles will help me form my ideas into usable designs, could be used to create a platform to make the coding process easier.

My experience with code is that if you "think" that you can do something, eg. make a ball bounce off a table, then there is a way of doing it, it's a matter of breaking it into steps and tackling each step one by one, eg. ball starts at top, moves down at x speed, hits table, bounces up at y speed. What I need to figure out is what color the ball is, and what the tables made out of.
