FOOD FOR THOUGHT

If your boss pays you N30,000 per month,
Assuming you decided to save all without touching a dime, it will take you 36 months to make N1million (Did I hear you say 3years?)Absolutely!

On the other hand, if you can convince an organisation like Dangote Group To print and supply 5000 umbrellas to them (to be used as souvenirs) and you make just N200 profit per umbrella, in just one day you must have made N1million

What about becoming a billionaire? That's where it gets crazy!

OK, now let's increase your pay to N1,000,000 per month and you decide to save all without touching a dime. In a year, you will have saved N12million. It will take about 84 years before you can make N1billion. (Please subtract your current age).

On the other hand, Nigeria has a population of about 200 million people. If you can supply salt to just 12million, once in a month and you make just N200 from each person supplied, in one year, you must have made N2.9billion. This shows that to become rich, you have to stop talking to bosses for a job and start talking to clients/prospects

You have to stop thinking inside the box and even stop thinking outside the box...

Yes... the box is still a limitation...

You have no idea what your mind is capable of, do you?

This is what you have to do...

SET YOUR MIND FREE AND THINK LIKE THERE IS NO BOX

The possibilities are endless.

Would have been better if you'd gotten yourself informed,rather than this your public display of ignorance.
Of the 4 service chiefs,2 are from the Northeast.
The Ministers of Defense and Interior are both from the Northwest.The CDS and VP from the Southwest,while only the CNS from the 'South-south'.Leaving the Southeast and North-central from the equation. Senators of the middlebelt extraction may be cool with their lot,those of the Southeast are not.

Start with JavaScript.
I would advice you not to just learn how to code with it but know what is happening behind the scene.
Look for this course: JavaScript: Understanding the Weird Parts

adeoyeyemi:


Where do u reside? I am in Lag, i have the offline W3school website on my system to share with you. It is a large folder though.

Zsatan:
No need for PDFs..

Just use online materials. If you need help ask many will r willing to assist you. Learn es6 don't learn old school js.


Sorry my phone + nairaland changed some words. And I didn't proof read my comment before posting. Just saw it now.

revontuli:
You did a fine job explaining it bro

Zsatan:


Well let me give you a detailed introspect as to why most people here suggested php before JavaScript.


1. JavaScript is Hard( ( not trying to discourage you ).

When I mean JavaScript is hard I mean it's not so easy.because it's a loose language without types. Now the issue of types is not a problem cause php , python are also templating language without types. However what makes JavaScript hard is that there are multiple ways to do one thing... And you can hardly know which of the ways is recent or old.

For every year JavaScript releases a new version of the language and they do not declare incompatibility with older versions. It gets to a state where by things became so verbose untamed and everybody programmed anyhow and still achieve results, but these codes or orograms were/are half baked. A lot of changes were /are happening yet the community do not follow up with the pace at which it happens. Example it will interest you to know that as we speak there is JavaScript Es2018 but the major public still use Eat ( I am been lenient).

Oh no let me not even be fair, let me go harder 90% of scripts in January are coded with old patterns Es5. Many disparity lead to many useless tools like webpack and likes.. This is also my we have various JavaScript derivatives. I.e Typescript, dart, flow etc.
Note most big companies use Typescript cause it's type safe and nicknamed the future js. It is full javasript but this time stricter in compliance and type safe also you get to learn core programming concepts like Traits, classes not (the aldutereated just prototype call), geneics, type static etc. This will make your migration to other languages so easy. Most language are moving to strict typing. Php7 added this, JavaScript also have this with a declaration at header


2. Php to JavaScript or JavaScript to Phone
Nothing is impossible you might be able to go Just to PHp... However I am 95% sure that it won't be easy path unlike if you take the opposite direction (i.e php to js). In January you won't get much concept then you dive into frameworks and debugging might then be an issue and your headache starts to roll in.... A variable can be called from any freaking place. In php you will understand from ground up your flow , see modern tutorials and how you progress will be well structured. Also you did get recent up to date assistance when you need help as it's easy to get a phone programmer on the net. Same applies to Just it's easy getting one. But the quality of programmer begs the question.


3. Marketability

Hmmmm truth be told... If you learn Just and you can code well you did be able to kill 2 beds with a single stone. I.e be able to program front end a d also back end well. However this will not be the case with PHP.... With php you will code only server side. Not bad though...


4. Nigeria Market
I can't say about this, maybe other developers can put a word or 2.


5. Server Understanding.
Learning JavaScript/node will give you a good understanding of the computer + server + port forwarding hosting and setting up a server. This is where php falls behind. It's not bad though and it's bad. Every php newbee just upload to cpanel script and know nothing about server management , load balancing. Oh let me not go far, they know few things about command line. Thanks to composer but php is not still there yet in my opinion.

Server management and understanding though can be learnt on the side. Just how determined you are.... Also get a tutor ( not necessarily physical but like watch YouTube videos) reading J's alone and practicing wont be easy especially if this is your first programming language.

Always ask questions. You can check quora, stack overflow, Reddit. Lots of smart peeps are ready to give you a helping hand.


If you are at this paragraph you might be confused as I didn't give you a path to follow..... I only gave you pro and cons.... I am biased also towards php cause it was my second language from python for over 6years before I dived into JavaScript/typescript and then out to go...

Ehmmmmmmmm take javascripts... You kill 2 bed with one stone.. front end and backend + command line usage and likes...

Thanks.

ONE THING I DON'T REALLY UNDERSTAND ABOUT SCIENCE AND SCIENTISTS IS HOW THEY FOUND OUT THE AGE OF THINGS THEY DISCOVER,

HOW DID THEY KNOW THAT THE SKELETON IS UP TO 6000 YEARS AND NOT 300 YEARS, HOW DO THEY GET THE AGE?!
HOW DID THEY KNOW THE EARTH IS 4.5BILLION+ YEARS?

I LOVE SCIENCE WITH ALL MY HEART

There is something about lawyers that piss me off. Even law students when I was in school feel like they've made it when we all know that most of them will end up to be hungry charge and bail lawyers in a kangaroo court, so much pride...

I once had this lawyer friend that felt he is doing me a favour being in my life, I actually bulshit him, dafuq is wrong these folks?

Very good but AJ needs to improve tremendously if he want to keep those belts

youngds:

You can't compare both, depending on what you want to do with the knowledge I think php would serve you better or Node js but javascript functionality can be over looked in web. Adios

Marry this fat fool at your own peril .

The day you disrespect my mom will signal your end of days .

I will not only Unlove you , I will make sure you're seriously dealt with after which you will apologise to my mom for your misconduct.

My mom is a calm and loving woman , she no dey pass her boundary .
If she gets angry at you , thats because you've done something terribly wrong .


No man should condone a disrespectful house wife/girlfriend.

Please where did you hear the highlighted?
A simple Google Search will clear most of your doubts and educate you better about web development and javascript

How do you guys come up with these names?
