Programming can be a bit challenging. I usually advise people that want to start coding to start with a project. This will help you focus you effort towards a goal. Programming is a very wide ecosystem and in every project you will need just a small part of the different components. For eg. If you want to develope a website that handles registration for events, you will need a database (mysql, postgres etc), front end (any language that can build the website and communicate with the database), and sql itself to query the database. Now these three can be very wide on their own but for this project, you can use a single table. For the website (front end), can be very wide but can be limited to two pages. One to fill the form, the other to read the data. Then you limit sql to crud. No need to get into complex queries like joining tables etc. When you get more comfortable and expand to more complex projects, you will still need to reference what part you actually need for that project. Also try to understand the concept of object oriented programming. Makes life a lot easier 8 Likes |

1) learn the basics 2)Practice 70% read 30% 3) Combine the basics to solve problems 4)Learn how to solve real-life problems 5)Think about how does computer solve that problem 6) Tackle it step by step 7) Ask questions, seek help 8.)Continue to learn and challenge yourself 9)Keep abreast of new technologies 10)Build as many applications as possible 11) Move with experienced developers(very important) 12) Get a job(Work experience) 8 Likes 2 Shares |

haha, i switched to blender and one can use it to make 3d animated movies or 2d animations, just that i am not an artist, but it's as useful as commercial software and its free, one can even do architectural designs on it, and i find it intuitive and more friendly than maya too. Some Free software's discourages one from even using commercial ones, but some free software's like blender have ways of getting income, that are friendly, and flexible. SegFault: |

, i said it can be fun, but when you have time restrictions or deadline for a project, it may not be fun, when your codes do not work as it should, i got to learn that, while trying to design a program, i had a bug, and my codes were not according to the "Separation of concern principles" The codes were interconnected, so it was hard for me to isolate parts of the codes, to detect where the error was coming from, so henceforth, i have to apply the separation of concern principle and reduce code inter dependability. Yes, Coding can be hard too, and can bring stress, but one has to keep learning and improving the way he or she goes about, and truly learning the underlying concepts behind it. So the ability to test, isolate codes and understand the Exceptions and errors generated and handle them is very necessary. Fidelismaria: 2 Likes 1 Share |
