Re: I Want To Learn Programming. Which Language Should I Start With? by AmaLearner(m): 8:48pm On Mar 13, 2015 |
I do not have a desktop or a palmtop or anything "-top" just my phone. But i discovered (with the help of great people, am grateful to) an app (Java Sdk mobile.jar) that can execute java programs. I began with J2ME, still a learner. Please can this in anyway help me program a microcontroller that serves as the brain of a home-based robot ? Please |

AmaLearner:I don't think so because my first project with microcontrollers (arduino board) was coded using arduino software. |

Hello there, in response to your original post i think if you want to learn programming go for c#. here's why: C# can be used for developing apps for a lot of platforms and if you're going to stay relevant as a programmer you need to be able to develop applications and software that will run on the web, mobile devices and computers. the best languages that offer this ability to program for many platforms are c# and java. however...the trend in technology now is beautiful user interfaces. c# allows you to create beautiful user interfaces for web development, mobile development and normal windows development. so i'd suggest c# and if you do plan on getting started....there are free and comprehensive resources on this site (from free ebooks to free articles) : http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/beginners/ if you have any other questions please feel free to ask. 1 Like |

Can someone from Negeria help us? A kind bitcoin platform (called bits take) has a section on their website which is only accessible to Negeria people. Can someone test this for us? (we do not Negeria). For this, an account on bitstake.info must be created with an email address and user name and password, it takes 1 minute). If you are logged in, you can then indicate whether you have access to the page area which is called "trading platform"? On forum: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=920272.1820 we seek negerian people who can confirm something. |

well to get grasp of programming(understand the way a language is structured), you need to understand that starting small is necessary. Don't be in a hurry to impress with app developments and what not. You will get there soon enough. As your question says..I want to learn programming; I'd suggest these steps: 1. Start with Python. Its no co-incidence where almost all schools and sites now teach newbies with python. Its a fairly easy language and if you are consistent in learning, solving problems (a lot of them available online) and acquiring more concepts along the way, you will be good in no time. 2. to achieve step 1, I always suggest a gentle introduction. Hence i'd say you should give www.codeacademy.com a try and finish their python series. codeacademy to me is the ultimate newbie site for a very friendly introduction to programming. 3. now you blood should be getting hot to do some geek stuffs .However, codeacademy make things so simple you wouldn't realise it now.Also the concepts on the site are very basic and just what a newbie will need 4. At this point, I would want you to aquire a new concept codeacademy never introduced to you. So i'd say you should head straight to www.pythonchallenge.com. You should be able to breeze through the first puzzle but the second one will through you off a bit. Don't be a Hero, go online and check for the solution and you will discover the new-concept.. (regular expressions) 5. don't just run-away after seeing the solution. Learn this concept through videos on youtube. Doing this, you begin to aquire ideas that will take you away from novice to intermediate 6. After you've introduced yourself to regular expressions.Leave the python challenge for now because it assumes you know quite much from then. (don't waste precious knowledge time cracking your brain) 7. change to www.checkio.org. go on and solve the game puzzles as far as you can. 8. If you get stuck anywhere look for the solution online and if you find more new concept in the process, Google it, and learn about them.Also practice with such concept till you feel a bit better about them. Try as much as possible to be original with your solutions on checkio and publish them. There is no one way to solving a programming problem. The way each one of us structure our thoughts are different. We only get more concise as we advance 9. keep practicing (you will see that once you pick up another language to learn, they are fairly same stuffs but just with difference in syntax) 10. Also try reading up on how you can apply what you are learning or simply pick up a new language to learn what people advised you to learn based on what you would love to achieve or a project you want to do. 11. Python only makes the learning process very easy for you 12. Google also has an online python-learning series if you would love to check them out. 13. Also join this site, codewars.com. You will have to solve one or two puzzles to be allowed on the site but they are fairly simple stuffs 14. Go Ahead, Be a geek...Go into webapp tingy as guys advised. Cheers 7 Likes 1 Share |
