There is a growing number of people with interest in developing software and websites, but what is it that drives you to learn how to code?

The Ability to solve real life Problems..

The Ability to wow your audience with what your code can do..

The Ineveitability of Midnight Brain-storming sessions..

The Tendency to take long walks when your Codes bug yu down..

The Ability to think Outta the Box..

The Ability to use Unpopular Alphabets (Hyphens, colons, semicolons, asterisks, commas, question marks, curly|Squared Braces)..

The Ability to change the World...

Programming is the Way of Life of a Geek..

It's a constant learning experience and seeing the end result when your program is translated from source code to machine code and having it run and do amazing things is just the biggest satisfaction that one can have. When you build something from scratch like a mobile app, desktop app, a game, etc. and you see it come to life realizing that you used a programming language like Java, C++, Swift, C, Ruby, Python, etc. It's just such a rewarding experience.

Solving a big problem by breaking it into smaller units and solving them .... implementing the divide and conquer approach.

Developing a UI (web or desktop/mobile app) that has a clean and simple interface but underneath has posses fast and efficient processing power.

To fully architect a system with an efficient algorithm and a comprehensive design plan which can then be implemented in any suitable programming language of a coder's choice.

smileyI see programming as creating a whole new different world. It's so awesome when you see typed codes translate to an actual new world. #just saying. It makes me feel like a god.

For me, it is simply poetry. And do you know what I've just done? I've just used a level of abstraction in that sentence - 'poetry'.
I love Science generally and I never run out of sweet adventures in Science.

Solving a problem that has been taunting me...and making mouth in my head after solving it (who you be cheesy)

Finding bugs in open source programs

Seeing other senior devs and my mates appreciate my code

Helping others....especially on stackoverflow

Finally being called a programmer....it's just cool n awesome
