Hello there, my fellow programmers and aspiring , now let me ask you,

Why did you choose to become a programmer??


For me, i picked interest after watching the TV series Kyle XY and I've enjoyed the journey so far...

I choose it since I was in jss1 just because of the colour the notepad brings when coding then, but now I want to be an app and web developer.

but the journey is quite challenging because I only have a midrange phone.

I picked interest in it when I was young. I was really fascinated by games (mobile, console and so on). Which I know requires coding, but unfortunately for me, have not been able to develop any game till now. I'm more of mobile app and web development.

To build your imagination.

Cos in future communication will definitely be with computer and the best guy that can instruct the computer the best!

Movie Nikita, that tech guy nicknamed shadow walker!
Infact I took up the name

TBH, Nairaland front page topics are making sense these days, kudos to the mods

I have never been interested, maybe in future.

I be like programming o
Na im make me chose computer science

But when Uniben subject us to old programming language like Pascal and Fortran ehnnnnn
I swear i nor like that course again

I picked

I love programming

I want to start .. but I don't know where to start from

Making money

There is no money anymore in individual programming.

Me that can't copy and paste. No interest biko.

Though I have a soft spot for people in that field- I think they are trying.

If programming was a communicable disease, I would be an expert for all the programmers I have been close to.

It's basically all about solving problems which is = to Money.

Cos I wanted to be like Bill Gates ati Mark Zuckerberg

It's simply because of its mathematical concept. I will continue coding until I die and mine kids will take over from me . Although I started coding late at around 26 years and I'm 27 now

no comment

I love networking and as such... And I also Iove learning new things.

4. Immerse yourself in this daily for 8 months...Then apply for Andela's learner or volunteer programs next year April/May

5. If you don't get the opportunity to join Andela, there will be other doors that will open for you (One of the pros of been a programmer)

6. Give yourself this time next year, you will be a self taught programming guru (You need atleast 11 months of intense self learning to be ready to take on very tasking jobs)
