Someone once tried to convince me that his product/tool/system was better
than
everybody else's.  His argument was: "With my system, no programming is
required,
you just give the computer its instructions".

Surely, you did have to do "something". That something (no matter what it is)
*is* programming. It might be in a different language, different form,
whatever,
but it is programming nevertheless.
