How Can I Become A Programmer? A Lady Without Any Programin Software Knowledge? by Beey3026(f): 5:27pm On Dec 27, 2021
I guess been a female in tech world both hardware and software could be difficult, in some cases.

I don't have any degree or any higher institution qualifications, but I can read and write. Nobody is perfect,

I have never been to any computer learning center before but I don't know how I develop love for tech and programing.

I can operate and do almost most online activities.
I can use software and even solve most of some difficult problem in computer etc.

I want to become a programmer.
My question is as someone without any knowledge of Corel draw, Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft office or word. Or any graphical knowledge of most common computer softwares.

Is it possible for me to become a programmer ?
Where do I start from?
And I don't have any pc.
What is your advice for me?
Which programming language can I start studying?

Which websites or book can make me become a successful lady programmer?

First you have to start behaving like a computer. What I mean is be logical in most things you do. You will appreciate this when you get to the "if, else, while" part of your programming class

I also a newbie sha but if you want to start with python you can go to py4e.com and you can download a PDF on python programming language and you can also download the full course video on youtube. Just search for python for everybody on youtube, it's a 13 hour video by Charles Severence. Then you can also start learning on freecodecamp, w3school etc.
wow you're an angel thank you for the help.

Experiment first, then decide. Get a laptop and try out freecodecamp.org and Mozilla developer network. You need at least 3-6 months of constant practice.

Programming requires a certain way of thinking, stone cold dedication & ability to keep abreast of current knowledge trends. If you see its something you can handle, put your mind to it, everyone started from somewhere. Someone posted on nl how a 65year old man picked up python to complete a project.

A mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge.

George RR Martin.

You need to read like 5 good programming books.

Start with x for dummies, then yyy for absolute beginners, then zzz for beginners.

This will take you 10 weeks. Read the books twice.

Then, you need to know 'why' you want to code. For quick money? For a career? Hobby? Business?

After the books, go see silicon Valley series to get an idea of startups and how much time programming will eat and how much it'll transform your lifestyle.

Have an adventure!

Boss, Happy New year.

@OP Hug this comment tightly. By the time you're through with the above you would know if programming is what you want to dive into or not.
