Either before learning it or while learning it.how are things after u learnt it??
if any newbie is facing anything similar to that,so we can learn from it.

Please share

When i learnt it things were not as advanced and easy as now; now there is codeacademy.com; stackoverflow; so you should have no problem learning and yeah i faced depression learning while being broke;no light; bad laptop. But the only thing that kept me going was passion.

yea.thats one thing,no light,no money

it made me hate the country to some point; but now there are inverters,batteries really the fact you're Nigerian its going to be harder compared to any other dev in any country but not impossible. I wish you all the best. Also try not be under the influence it impairs coding and all. Been there drunk that; coding and drinking don't mix.

Actually School does during my Aptech and time at University recently i lost interest in coding for a while because i had massive reports imagine writing 10,000 words for strategic ,2000 words for project mgt, it took my attention away and this can be serious esp if your course is not Comp Sci. it really does affect big time

You are absolutely right like me I study physics at unilag but I love programming and I was learning c# programming but I have not touched programming for almost two years because of the hectic schedule and no time for oneself and this can be frustrating as at a point the passion left me.
Sometimes being a Nigerian can be annoying.imagine having passion and ideas but the system does not support you.
In abroad I would have gone very far.its just so sad but I am working on resuming as I am getting the passion back.hopefully I can work something out.
