Coding is normally done on the desktop, as the keyboard provides special keys. The keyboard of android phones is usually limited in this respect.

Is coding possible smart phones at all ?

    Sure it’s possible. It’s also possible to cut an acre of grassland with scissors. Both are terrible ideas.

      Never heard that. What’s all this modern nonsense? Traditionally you have to use a nail clipper!

      This reminds me of a research project I did in university (I studied ecology).
      The goal was to find out how much food geese need during migration.
      You can’t weigh them before and after they feed.
      So we went to a meadow they always frequent on their migration path.
      And then we used a ruler to measure the length of every single blade of grass, before and after they fed.

      We also collected what they left behind.
      Like coding on a phone, it was fowl shit.

      Honestly, I’m not sure it is. The scissors might get dull and stop being able to cut before you finish. (Grasses often incorporate silica into their structure to grind down the teeth of animals that try to eat it and thus discourage them from eating too much.)

          Lawn mowers rely more on speed than sharpness. Even an extremely worn lawnmower blade will still cut grass if you give it enough RPM. They also have a lot more mass to be worn away than a pair of scissors.
