Jesuspolice: I advice you connect to the outside world(youtube) for tutorials on every aspect of programming application.There is a saying that you won't be told everything.You will only be guided to find the secrets yourself...A code will only be boring to you if you don't know how to apply it to real life problems...Object orientation and instantiation is the basis of real life examples in programming..In java,you can convert a mathematical expression into a java source code to help you solve problems..You can use the scanner class to allow users input their queries in a calculator etc.You can use the import libraries in java,ticktock,loops,jpanel,button in java to create a game etc.Don't be in a rush.Go and learn the codes first before thinking of how to apply them in real life. Most developers don't have time to help smn.They can only guide you but 80% of the work must come from you. Good luck. 1 Like |

Jesuspolice:with an exception of FORTRAN, I think you need to elaborate more on what you mean by C# has no real life usefulness. if you are using Windows, some of the applications you're running are probably write in any .NET Language which C# is one of. am currently developing a web application with C# for my project in school and where i did my IT, C# is used to develop must of their applications and web projects for clients and is doing the job quite well. will love to hear from you about this matter. 2 Likes |

web development.. do you really want to learn web programmin? if yes, I have the solution to your answer.. 1. the truth is with the huge sum of money you are going to pay @NIIT, you won't still be fulfilled becos programing requires personal training and motivation. 2. truth, everyone says motivation, personal training but the place of a mentor can not be under estimated.. so to learn quick and fast, you also need a mentor 3. you also need programmers, people of like minds who want to learn same thing or doing same thing so you can share ideas while you both learn.. well you might think. I know I have told you the truth in good faith, but I have a solution... I am also a learner and have been into web for 2years now, I want to help you, help myself and others who r interested in a group of 5programmers where we will teach ourselves well, buy materials ourselves online and learn at a fast pace with losing huge sum of money to NIIT. pls whatsapp me on 2349033863912. note, am not collecting any money from you. must reside in Lagos |

I suggest checking out Stanford's Programming Methodology CS106A on YouTube. They teach in Java but it's a very good course and it will teach you the basics of programming. I started with that, moved onto Stanford's CS193P and 3 months later I am building my first iOS app. I'm actually vlogging about it daily on YouTube so you can check out my channel if you want to follow my progress.

I think everybody should start with SQL. It is very easy and you will need it in all the languages you will learn later. |
