What are programming and programming language?
Programming is the way through which we (Human) gives instructions to the computer what to do. The computer doesn’t understand the natural language. So we need to give that instruction in such a language which computer can understand. So those languages which computer understand to do something for us are called Programming languages.
PASSION FOR PROGRAMMING.
Become a programmer if you have the passion for programming
I have seen a lot of people who want to learn to programme just because they read somewhere that programmers earn a lot of money. If you’re that kind of person then programming is not for you. Programming needs passion. You need to have passionate about programming. No doubt programmers earn a lot of money but they have the passion for programming.
IMPROVE YOUR PROGRAMMING LOGIC.
Programming is not just type something but programming is an art. You have to create something creative, something new which have no existence. So always people just take a programming language start learning and they think that they are learning to the programme but actually, they are learning the language of the computer. A programming language is a source through which we can communicate with the computer.
First of all learn Data Structure, Discrete mathematics. This will improve you logical level. Choose any simple language you want which I will discuss below.
CHOOSING A PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE.
If you think you are passionate and you love programming then choosing a programming language at the beginning is really difficult. Everyone thinks that which programming language should I learn and which language will suit me.
If you’re a beginner then choose the easy and simple language which you learn easily. You can change your programming language later on. Stick with one language and learn it deeply. Don’t jump from one language to another. There are two most popular languages on the list which you can take as a starting language. The most two popular languages are Ruby and Python. This both languages are objected oriented and have readable syntax.
PRACTICE, PRACTICE, AND PRACTICE.
There is a famous saying that “Practice makes a man perfect”. I think this quote is just for programmers. You can’t be a good programmer without practice. First, read some tutorials, learn something new and then start practice. The only source to learn to programme is “Practice”.
GRASP THE FUNDAMENTALS FOR LONG TERM BENEFITS.
While learning programming you need to focus on the basics first. Grasp the basics of programming. Don’t say that I already know this. Practice it and solve problems as much as possible. The basic concepts of all the programming language are the same. This not much difference. The difference is only in syntax which is not so big deal to learn. Programming is basically not to learn a language like PHP, C++ or Java but programming means problem-solving capability.
