Hi all, I want to go into programming. Please I need advice on how to start and also what extra attributes do you think can be of benefits to me. I need your reply. Thanks Guys.

good to know people are willing to go into programming. It's really fun because instead of being just a computer user, u also give the computer commands/instructions to follow.

Dont really have much for you but my advice is for you to be determined and focused,
Always have in mind what you want to do and come up with very good structure.

You always have to be inquisitive about emerging technologies.
And start with one of the recent programming languages available as there are thousands of them out there, but anyone can serve for you to have the whole idea.

you can as well visit the following links I beleive they'll help you through your research

Or just search for programming tools on google

Best of luck
