First Steps Into The World Of IT

Here, we shall cover these three aspects in a very general approach to ensure a simple and easy comprehension of these topics so that all that come across this post can get a better and not so technical understanding of this three topics covered. Before we start, know that this three are related to the web and its development. There are many languages, etc but this three generally are the basics which are widely used and is common. HTML HTML which stands for Hypertext Mark-up Language and is a system language. HTML basically is your foundation for your website. It is the structure given to it and is quite straight forward with its tags and format making it simple and easy yet fun to use which is a must if you creating a website as without HTML utilized into your electronic page, it is as if a man walking with no skeleton within him so that should give you an idea of how crucial HTML is but also at the same time, very easy to implement. At first, perhap...

What Is HTML? HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language which is the standardized system for tagging text to view font, graphics, colour and hyperlinks on electronic pages found on the internet as shown when you google it. Basically in simpler terms, all the sites that you visit and all the information within those pages are provided through using HTML. Most people believe that HTML is a programming language which is wrong as it is a markup language. HTML is one of the easiest things to learn in my opinion and I think everyone should try to learn it as it is easily accessible to all and is actually quite fun. There are many tools available for creating HTML pages but if you just have a simple text editor, such notepad, you can make an HTML page with ease. Here is a little exercise you can try out to create your first simple HTML page with the basic tags to get you started. Follow the steps below: 1.        Start up you...

Below, I have listed some aspects which I believe every programmer should include in his journey through the life of a programmer. At times, you may feel a bit lost and in need of some standards or directions and so I came up with this that I have found beneficial along the way. 1.     Understand Problems This is a must for every programmer out there and is a crucial stepping stone to becoming a good programmer and is one of the basic concepts that needs to be developed in order to be able to be a programmer. Programming is essentially solving problems so you should obtain this skill as then you would be faced with a hard road ahead. 2.     Learn To Plan Generally when starting off learning how to program, you tend to get so excited that you don’t really plan but just go straight into coding and end up in a web of confusion with no guidelines and structure. It is as if you deriving to somewhere you have never been before with no way...

It is always a must in our everyday lives at this point in time to be clued up with technology and all the advancements that the world is making towards a better future. This also for most can be a bit overwhelming and seem like so much to take in at times. I am sure there are some who tend to get a bit lazy and don’t want to spend their time reading constantly or are so busy with our everyday routines that we don’t seem to have the time for it. I will admit that I too at times are guilty of this and become lazy and this is normal and understandable as we are human at the end of the day. Keeping updated is important though and we need to make the time for it as technology is always moving and advancing and you learn so much by getting informed. Maybe even an hour a day just to sit and relax while reading the news. There are many resources to get updated with technology and you do what suites you best. Resources comes in many forms now days as you get ...

Single VS Multiple Languages I came across many queries when it comes to the question from new developers on whether it is better to learn multiple languages or to stick to one language. There is no wrong or right answer here but both ways has pros and cons. SINGLE LANGUAGE This should generally be your first step by mastering a single language as this would give you a specialty as well as make it much easier to grasp concepts of other languages more effectively. A single language when given the proper attention and focus can be used to accomplish so much and this would give you an edge on other developers in this language as you would become the guy to refer to in queries to this language making you somewhat of an expert in the acquired language. It is good to have that language to specialize in as you can help develop others in the skills you have gained through your experience in the language. Through this specialization, it would be easier to get ...

Should you learn more than one language at a time? How much can you get out of this strategy and would this benefit you? All this may come to mind when learning programming and it can be a huge factor in your learning experience. I know some are just enthusiastic and want to get the most out of this or feel that you backwards in your knowledge base and want to keep up with the rest that seem to be way more ahead of you so you try to cram as much as you can on different languages. Just on the get go, I can tell you that this is a really really bad idea. This technique or style will most probably get you nowhere other than confused, overwhelmed and exhausted. Maybe there are some special individuals who have the capacity to be able to undertake this task with ease and that is absolutely amazing and great for them but for most of us, this could crush us completely and you’d end up wanting to give up due to the enormous amount of information you would have to take in. ...

Maybe you’re a doctor, a chef, a home decorator, a musician or perhaps just never really done anything you had a passion for most of your life and one day you discovered programming or always knew about it but never had the time to pursue it. There can be many factors but in each scenario, time has become a factor, you’re not 17 anymore, so can you still learn how to code, how to become a programmer, is there a possibility of you getting into the programming profession? These are questions that most people who are interested in programming but feel perhaps they are too old and not going to be able to catch up starting off at such a late age. If you look at the situation from this point of view, it can be really intimidating and frightening which stops most people from taking that step to increasing their knowledge and learning this amazing skill. The good news is no, no one is too old to learn how to be a programmer and I believe every person who puts their mind and ef...
