As someone who isn't a computer science center graduate, is there any financial reward for me learning programming, if so, what are they?

To be honest, I really can't answer your question. I learned to program because I wanted to change the world somehow and it felt natural for to tow that part.

Yes there's financial reward if your good and are able to think smartly.

If mixed with other things such as a good personality, good communicator, avid reader and humble person, you can achieve amazing results.

Don't go in because you want financial reward, you go just cast.

When going into programming.. Forget about the financial aspect..

You can as well go start a business for now.. Cos all these thing's may take years before it starts to pay you off..

Not trying to discourage you tho.. If you know you have big motivation in that area.. Then go for it

There is potentially financial benefit in everything we do. Programming being one of them.

I just want to make a quick differentiation though. Programming and Computer Science are not the same thing. Sure there is a lot of programming in Computer Science, but there is also a lot of programming in Electrical Engineering.

More succinctly put, Computer Science is the study of Algorithmic Theory. Programming allows one to design and implement algorithms on a computer.

You can build apps, program hardware devices (embedded systems), design your own operating system, build robust webpages. What you do is up to you. I would say it's a worthwhile hobby to take up.

There is no financial reward if your motive is the financial gain, you will get frustrated and became a copy and paste programmer. However, if your motive is to learn programming from what variable is, how can you implement a conditional statement, zeal to fight Multa-Kombat with bugs, figure out how things works, write bad codes and learn how to write good one, sitting with your computer from morning till Night working on imaginary projects and not sample project from YouTube.

Then you are ready to smile to the bank in few years.

Hello,

This is a group on meetup.com for programming beginners.

You can check it out here: https://www.meetup.com/Learn-to-code-in-2018

If you are a newbie programmer, you should consider coming for the first meetup scheduled for the 24th of this month.

Regards.

Programming is financially rewarding but takes time, practice and persistence. I was once faced with the task of merging about 17,000 pairs of images into single images and was able to do it programmatically. The options are many in programming. Programming is the gateway to unlocking the power of computers as machine. I know a person who was tasked with merging close to a hundred thousand pairs of photos into single photos. He used manual method and choose editors.
