We are all Geeks, Discuss your ideas by Corussa1(op):
As easy as it is i can write a program to calculate the distance of planets just by using some Few formulas from physics and quantum physics. There's no idea that you can't program you just need the right ingredients

As funny as that may sound, it is totally achievable. After joining Andela, I have come to accept the fact that all social problems can be modeled into computer algorithms through algorithmic thinking. I have seen our Senior developers do it at a hackathon. I was amazed.

Do you believe that the number of people that are likely to cancel their hotel bookings can be predicted for up top 80% accuracy with computer algorithms? It was done at a hackathon and the result came true. The things you mentioned are just human behaviour, which given enough data can be modeled and predicted.

PS: Let's not derail the thread. DM me if you need to discuss this.
