“Our world is increasingly run by software and we need more diversity in the people who are building it. More importantly, writing software is about expression, creativity — and practical application,” Liukas told IBTimes UK.
In recent years, coding has exploded. To operate, every website, application, computer program, electric items, calculator, and even microwave relies on code. The number of coding jobs available- will also continue to grow so it is a good time to learn how to code for beginners. As there are plenty of free resources available, it will be helpful for you to learn new techniques and concepts related to coding. Do you want to learn how to code by yourself? If yes, let’s have a look at some points to teach yourself to code:
Over the next 10 years, it is estimated that there will be 1.4 million jobs in computer sciences and only around 400,000 graduates qualified to do them.
Have an honest conversation with yourself: Why do you want to learn to code?
Think about the main reason why you want to learn a programming language, it will just take about a few minutes. Do you want to learn to make a career? Is learning how to code simply something which interests you that you are going to be doing in your spare time? Do you want to create apps? Do you want to learn because your friends are learning? So, think about it.
It will help you determine which programming language you should learn including the time and money you require to learn a programming language. For example, if you want to make any app, you have to learn a different language like- Java, Kotlin, C#, etc.
2. Choose the right programming language
After figuring out why you want to learn a coding language. Now you have to figure out which language you want to learn. You have to figure out which language has more scope, and which interests you most. Different types of programming require different skills. As there is not any best language to learn. HTML and CSS are considered the easiest ones. These are useful for making websites. Also, for making the website more interactive, you will need to learn languages like- Javascript, PHP, SQL, Python. For app development, you need to learn- Java, Kotlin, C#.
If still, you are not able to decide from which programming language you start? Many professionals recommend learning C#, JavaScript, Python, as these languages have more career flexibility. So, just get started learning any language.
3. Watch some videos related to coding
You can find all kinds of videos related to coding. Before enrolling in any courses, watch some YouTube videos about coding. Online videos and video tutorials are great resources that can help you to solve complex concepts related to coding. So, you should prefer to learn from an online coding platform to learn different methods of coding.
4. Try out some online courses
If you want to have more command over any programming language, you can choose any available online courses, it might be a better option. However, many different online classes offer the same programming languages, and it can be hard to figure out which one is truly worth your time and money. Online coding courses are one of the best ways to learn a new programming language.
5. Find a mentor
You might be able to find some helpful online mentors through GitHub, or other developers at a local coding Meetup event or hackathon. If you will be stuck with any kind of complex concepts related to any coding, it will take just a few minutes for them to solve or explain any problems. So, it will be a good idea to find someone who can solve your coding problems.
6. Practice writing your programs
After having a basic knowledge of your chosen language, you will need to practice more and start creating programs and projects. The type of programs and which you will start practicing will depend upon your chosen language. Like- If you are learning how to code a website using HTML and CSS, you might choose to start building your website.
You will be surprised to see your progress once you start learning and practice writing more programs. You must have heard this phrase- Practice makes perfect! And practice will help you to become a successful programmer. Practice, practice, and more practice!
7. Join an Online Community
For newbies, it can be extremely difficult to learn to code on their own, and for that, you sometimes need any support. For instance, if you are learning any language, and you came across any problem related to syntax, and are not able to understand it well, joining an online chat board or coding forum will help you by giving you access to people who will be able to find a solution for your problems.
8. Keep Learning
Programming languages are like any other language, it requires regular practice if you want to become fluent in them. If you don’t practice, you will forget things. Therefore, make sure that you keep learning new things every day. Instead of using the same coding syntax and patterns for every program, start finding new ways and methods to code.
Learning how to code for beginners can be fun and super exciting. Learning how to code can provide you with valuable skills that will be helpful for your career growth. So, it will be good to learn a programming language. Are you going to learn coding from today?
Guido Van Rossum the Inventor of the computer language, “Python” ,when began implementing Python as a programming language back in the late 1980s at Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI) in the Netherlands came up with an interesting tale .
This had to do with why was the programming language named after a reptile, Guido back in those days always read the published scripts from “Monty Python’s Flying Circus”, a BBC comedy series from the 1970s.
Van Rossum thought he needed a name that was short, unique, and slightly mysterious, so, he decided to call the language, Python.
That is how a name of a reptile was given to a computer language. Unlike the name the language is not dangerous rather it is one of the easiest programming language and can be made further easy by learning basic coding.
Surprisingly today when young minds of 6 -7 years old kids can get a hold of it I am sure that even you, and I can, but let’s first know a bit about Python before we set forth to this enriching learning experience.
• Python is an interpreted, object-oriented, high-level programming language with dynamic semantics.
• Its high-level built in data structures, combined with dynamic typing and dynamic binding, make it very attractive for Rapid Application Development, as well as for use as a scripting, or glue language to connect existing components together.
• Python’s simple, easy to learn syntax emphasizes readability and therefore reduces the cost of program maintenance.
• Python supports modules and packages, which encourages program modularity and code reuse.
• The Python interpreter and the extensive standard library are available in source or binary form without charge for all major platforms, and can be freely distributed.
Often, programmers fall in love with Python because of the increased productivity it provides. Since there is no compilation step, the edit-test-debug cycle is incredibly fast.
Debugging Python programs is easy, a bug or bad input will never cause a segmentation fault. Instead, when the interpreter discovers an error, it raises an exception. When the program doesn’t catch the exception, the interpreter prints a stack trace.
A source level debugger allows inspection of local and global variables, evaluation of arbitrary expressions, setting breakpoints, stepping through the code a line at a time, and so on.
The debugger is written in Python itself, testifying to Python’s introspective power. On the other hand, often the quickest way to debug a program is to add few print statements to the source and the fast edit-test-debug cycle makes this simple approach very effective.
Keeping Python fun to use is an important goal of Python’s developers. It reflects in the language’s name, a tribute to the British comedy group Monty Python.
On occasions, they are playful approaches to tutorials and reference materials, such as referring to spam and eggs instead of the standard foo and bar.
Python is used by hundreds of thousands of programmers and is used in many places. Sometimes only Python code is used for a program, but most of the time it is used to do simple jobs while another programming language is used to do more complicated tasks.
Although has anyone ever wondered how small children can code and run commands on python. The answer to this lies in the amount of sources we have .If one wishes to learn and there are multiple ways that the young generation has been offered with.
Among the many sources to choose from, PurpleTutor an Ed-tech company can help the child fulfil his /her dreams .Becoming a programmer in the future will not seem only a dream .

I’m in a group of 4 for my capstone Comp Sci project and we had to come up with a group name. So, I made a short document introducing ourself since I like graphic design stuff, and when I sent my team members this title page as a demo to see how they like the design, one of them asked if our name could just be “team.name”
(Also, the four “lorem.ipsum”s are going to be replaced with our group members names, so they’ll read something like “C:\team.name\john.doe” and “C:\team.name\jane.doe” in the final document. Obviously I didn’t include anyone’s real name for privacy reasons.)
gn reader & programmer heeseung ━━ fluff ꕀ hcs, estabilished relationship (dating), modified repost ⌗ WARNiNGS pet names, kissing, mentions of doctors.
heeseung lets you sit on his lap while he reads and writes codes. he caresses your head softly with a hand — even if it takes away a bit of his capability to type — and the other edits characters and functions
occasionally, he spins his chair around to take a break, looping his arms around your waist. his lips travel from your shoulder to your neck, jaw, cheeks, and then lips, humming tiredly in satisfaction against them
since heeseung spends a lot of time in front of his bright computer screen, his eyesight eventually got bad. after visiting the ophthalmologist, he listened to your suggestions and got a new pair of thick-rimmed glasses, lenses so wide that his big eyes pop out even more
now, whenever you push up the frame that falls to the tip of his nose, he smiles shyly, a crimson tint coating his ears. his bambi-like eyes avert from yours and his fingers press the right button of his mouse repeatedly
heeseung also knows that he should call it a day when you carefully take them off his face
heeseung only knows bits of html and css, but if you're watching a boring online class he will appear by your side and snatch your laptop from your hands, giggling sweetly
despite your protests, he’s already opening the inspect window to change your teacher's name to something dumb like “poopy pants”
he modifies the whole call — from your classmates’ questions in the chat (that now are quoting a random brainrot joke) to the class name (which, at the moment, is named “world heestory”)
he does the most stupidly cheesy things for you without any shame
heeseung once created a python program under a minute and yelled “babe, come see what i did!” from his room. you thought he’d show you the game he’d been working on, but it was just a white page with “how much % of the day do you think about lee heeseung?” written in the middle.
you tried typing out numbers smaller than 10 to joke around with him, only for a message to pop up:
really? :( he thinks about you every moment of his day!
heeseung gazed up at you sadly from his chair as you attempted to write bigger numbers — but none of them made the warning disappear
only when you wrote an obnoxiously big number that a new message came on
:D he thinks about you this much, too! congrats, you got an unlimited free pass to get as many kisses and cuddles as you want!
unfortunately, you didn’t get to even read it since your boyfriend tackled you onto the bed, tickling your sides and murmuring in faux anger that you were an annoying little brat for teasing him
if you didn't know, you don’t need a powerful computer or laptop to start programming. however, heeseung has a huge setup with three monitors, a collection of custom keyboards with different keycaps and lubed switches, and the most insane white & clear computer case you’ve ever seen
and being his partner means that you’ll get a crazy setup too too
no matter if you use it every day or once in a blue moon, he’s ready to spend all his money on a setup as big as his for you
you want new headphones? you got it. a new cooler? consider it done. a computer monitor as long as your wall was released? it’ll be by your doorstep tomorrow morning
being his partner also means having to listen to his late-night complaints when a project of his doesn’t go as planned. ask him how was his day and you’ll get a sulky heeseung holding you close to his chest, ranting your ear off about how the program didn’t execute half the commands he programmed
he’ll pinch your waist or flick your forehead playfully if you laugh at him, not understanding a thing of what he’s saying
but if you actually just lay there and listen, or if you lovingly gaze down at him, heeseung starts to stammer and apologize for “rambling so much”
due to his fast typing, his hand joints got weaker too, leading to a constant quivering of his fingers
it started off pretty small, when you would notice heeseung’s fingers shaking to cradle your face (which you even mistook as nervousness). you bought him some stress balls and essential oils, so every night you could massage his hands
heeseung gets insanely bashful at the feeling of your fingers gliding across the planes of his palms
“you’re makin’ me too shy...” he mutters quietly under his breath, chewing on his bottom lip. “my hand is fine, i just need to hold you for a bit.”
heeseung changed his wifi password to your name, followed by “MyBaby” as soon as you started dating. he secretly hoped to have a small ode to you everywhere in his home
so due to that, even his third, vertical monitor had an 8-bit animation of you on different scenarios: gardens, mountains, coffee shops... you name it. heeseung secretely learned the basics of pixel art just to paint it himself
heeseung couldn’t be more proud when you printed your first “Hello World!” on your own. he showered you in praises, telling you how smart you were, even if you just typed out print("Hello World!")
he’s always making time for you into his packed agenda, going out on dates and grocery shopping when you’re running out of food. to him, you’re his biggest priority, and even if his schedule is eating him up, he finds a way to sneak some time for you during breaks
even if all of his projects went wrong, having you next to him was enough to make him the happiest man alive
babe i have the greatest idea, so… 2000’s ellie and reader. reader is just this girly, bitchy, always wearing juicy couture or the shortest skirts and thank tops, alwyas getting detention for her outfits girl and ellie is a nerdy, trouble maker, science obsessed, no one knows how but kinda popular nerd. you can go wherever you want with this but i imagined it that they are hiding around just to make out, because being gay and stuff, not that they are embarrassed but they don’t want the whole school to see them making out and they hide in a barth room and make out, some funny stuff, giggles and ykyk they are teenagers so it’s all super funny to them and messy, and they forget to lock the barth room stall and dina and jessie walk in on them. I have no idea but it’s so funny to me, the concept of this interaction..
i love your writing and i know you will do an amazing job💞💞
hello, hello?

is anyone home?
nerd!Ellie x popular!reader
warnings! making out
0.9k words!
Time ran slow here. The ticking on the wall was the only thing keeping you sane. You were stuck in detention. Not for skipping class or cursing at a teacher, no, you were in detention for the dumbest reason on the planet: dress code. You fidgeted with the sleeves of the sweatshirt that you had to put on from the lost and found, or else you would get another day's worth of detention.
The hour hand finally reached 4, and you were released. You quickly pull off the hoodie that smelled like it hadn’t been washed in a few days. And head down the hallway to the bathroom, your heels echoed through the corridor. The after-school programs were ending, so there were people still lingering throughout the halls, staying behind to work on their projects.
You make your way to the teacher's bathroom, a one-stall and lockable bathroom, usually closed off for students but open after hours. You reapply your lipstick, swiping off the excess on your upper and lower lip. Examining your false lashes, making sure none looked out of place. The front door to the bathroom swung open.
“Sorry,” The girl says, resting her skateboard on the trash can, just next to the door. “I didn’t know that anyone was in here.” You turn to look at the figure who just interrupted you. Once you finally make eye contact, it is none other than Ellie Williams.
“How long do you stare at your reflection?” Ellie continues, taking off her backpack that's decorated with space and science pins. You roll your eyes and refocus on the scratched mirror.
“Not as much as you stare at me,” You laugh at her. Ellie makes a mocking laugh, putting on a higher-pitched voice before opening the stall bathroom. You lean on the sink and pull out your phone. Looking at what people have posted online, checking myspace. You then open the camera app taking several selfies. Adjusting your tank top so it showed just the right amount of cleavage.
“Geez,” You move your phone out of your eyesight to focus on the brown haired girl in front of you. She was practically frozen in place, eyes locked in on you. You move over so that she could wash her hands.
“Did anybody see you come in after me,” You ask her, muffled by the sounds of the sink.
Ellie shakes her head while scrubbing her hands with soap. You let out a sigh of relief. You don’t mean to keep the two of you a secret. You’re just worried about what everyone else will think of you, not that it matters. You were private about your relationships before but this was different. You were lost in thought until the airdryer came on. You watch as Ellie’s hands move as she dries her ring clad hands.
“Now you’re the one staring,” Ellie smirks.
“Shut up,” You exclaim. She smiles at you as she walks closer. Her eyes are hungry as she comes forward. When she’s finally face to face with you, your lips instantly join together moving in sync.
“Missed you,” You admit, words barely getting out as your lips are connected with hers. You brace yourself as she pushes you up against the wall, gripping tightly against her flannel covered arms. Her hands hold on your bare hips, the bit of exposed skin where your tank top isn’t covering. You yelp as your body shivers at the cold metal of her rings.
Ellie snickers as she moves one of her hands closer to your ass. That only makes you want to kiss her harder. Her body pushes you up even more causing you to lift your feet off the ground and be supported by Ellie's body to keep you up. You let your tongue slowly slip into her mouth, lip gloss getting even more messy. You arch your back as she moves down your chin to that sweet spot under your ear. You feel her breath tickle the hairs down your neck. She inhales your sweet scent, glad you remembered to put perfume just under your ear. You sigh blissfully as your legs wrap around her waist, grinding up against her belt buckle, hitting just the right spot.
Ellie's moans were then interrupted by the click of the restroom door. Squinting at the fluorescent light coming through the hallway. Quickly you scramble off her and wipe off the smeared lipstick. Your body tenses up and goes hot. The whole school is going to find out. It wasn’t until your eyes adjusted to the lighting to see a familiar face. The laughs of a girl with messy tangled black hair, with a gleaming smile and a tall, muscular boy with the same smile plastered on his face, engulfed with each other. It was Ellie's friend, Dina, who you have english with. Nerdy girl, who’s also a part of the robotics club and track team. And Jesse, annoying jock who interrupts your history class to make the same obnoxious jokes. Two people who you wouldn’t expect to be together.
Dina’s flushed cheeks are highlighted by the bright bathroom light. “O-oh!,” she coughs. The four of you relax. It could’ve been worse, a teacher, the janitor, or one of your teammates from the cheer team. You drop your shoulders and smoothen out your skirt before Dina speaks again.
“We didn’t know anyone was in here,”
