Comprehension of computer code relies primarily on domain-general executive brain regions
Computer programming is a novel cognitive tool that has transformed modern society. What cognitive and neural mechanisms support this skill? Here, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging to investigate two candidate brain systems: The multiple demand (MD) system, typically recruited during mat...
