I think if you do, teach it in a way that will be useful to people, and teach it to exercise general algorithmic thinking skills or encourage automation mindsets.

I first started coding programs on my school calculator to automate formulas and cheat go faster on tests. Actually, I probably learned all that math stuff better because of that.
