I concluded that option c was the best answer here. I chose it because the argument relies on an assumption that teaching programming to school children will necessarily and sufficiently enhance their ability to effectively use computers. Option c highlights an incongruity between observed information and this idea.

But doesn't option A state that only people who know how to use computers effectively can program effectively? So, Doesn't it mean that trying to teach students how to program before letting them be more effective at the use of computers is futile?
