Programming › Re: Certification Or Skill by Javanian: 7:54am On Jan 02, 2013

Fayimora: I still don't see a reason. I think it's pointless lol. Certifications are just exams.

IMHO

Are they any good? Well, yeah kinda. I believe they prove you know how to prepare for and pass exams. Do they show your level of proficiency? ABSOLUTELY NOT!

Yes I believe in proof too. Seeing is believing! Show me what you can do. The fact that an investment bank is hiring/interviewing you doesn't mean your games(be it 2D, 3D or even text based) are useless to them. What matters is how you approached the problem. Also, change! Has your knowledge of Software Development improved overtime? What about your analytical skills?

It doesn't seem obvious how you can extract such information from someone's code but trust me when I say it's one of the easiest ways to do it.

I don't in anyway doubt what you have said. I don't have any certification, why ? because i don't need one. It is the mentality that we they live with here. I have done final year projects for some 400L computer science students and sometimes i am like what did you spend your four years in the university doing if you can't come up with anything for your final year project most of them give a lot of flimsy excuses but one was bold enough to tell me he isn't interested in programming, all he wants is his degree certificate. I didn't blame him because in Nigeria he has a higher chance of getting a Job with his degree than you that has none even with all the skills in the world. This is not always true but it is true 7 out 10 times. This doesn't apply to this field alone it is a mentality most ~~idiots~~ people in this country live with.

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language used for describing the presentation semantics (the look and formatting) of a document written in a markup language. Its most common application is to style web pages written in HTML and XHTML. Again, CSS is NOT a Programming Language.

JavaScript

JavaScript is a scripting language commonly implemented as part of a web browser in order to create enhanced user interfaces and dynamic websites.

JavaScript is a prototype-based scripting language that is dynamic, weakly typed and has first-class functions. It uses syntax influenced by the language C. JavaScript copies many names and naming conventions from Java. JavaScript is NOT the-same thing as JAVA

It was developed by Microsoft within its .NET initiative. C# is intended to be a simple, modern, general-purpose, object-oriented programming language.

webdezzi: Python.
Python is a Rapid Application Development(RAD) language which lets you write complex software with less codes.
It is made juicier with the arrays of available modules that makes your programming life fun, easy and exciting.
As a developer, if you pick up python and dedicate say 2 weeks to learning it, You wont go back.

Python is not only addictive but also clean and organized. You can read through source codes written in python and you know what they do right a way.
the syntax design is near perfect as it lets you code without thinking of ending every line with semi-colons, no dollar signs, no var, Dim or the likes.
Python developers here can add theirs.

In addition to this

C++

C++ is a statically typed, free-form, multi-paradigm, compiled, general-purpose programming language. It is regarded as an intermediate-level language, as it comprises a combination of both high-level and low-level language features. C++ is one of the most popular programming languages and is implemented on a wide variety of hardware and operating system platforms. As an efficient compiler to native code, its application domains include systems software, application software, device drivers, embedded software, high-performance server and client applications, and entertainment software such as video games.

madelinekim: If you are new than you have to start to learn with php programming language.

You are killing the entire purpose of this thread. The aim of this thread is to present an array of languages for the users to choose from. I wonder why you reached the conclusion that a beginner has to start with PHP.

webdezzi: I still wonder why the powerful Actionscript is not listed.

Nice write up, would have liked it if you provided sources to online tutorials. I didn't list ActionScript not because it isn't a great language, infact it is the most flexible language i have seen but because most of the ActionScript tutorials online tend to assume that you have background knowledge of any other programming language (an O.O. language to be precise) and this write up is targeted at people who are looking for a language to start with..
