OOP was too easy in java for me but multithreading na one kind demon be that and it's something that you can't skip. it very important when developing desktop software and web applications.
The issue with oop is that it makes your code very neat and less buggy. I advised beginners to start with vb or c# so as to understand the concept of oop

Python - Classes, Encapsulation, Polymorphism, Refractory. The entirety of OOP sha

If you know these and can explain it to layman, you're very good.

Easiest way to understand Java multithreading is tutorial on w3schools, just Google it.

We that deal with further maths and physics,,,, I don't think computer programming is as difficult as those...
I laugh in Syntax error.
Coding is as difficult as Maths or Physics. Don’t be fooled.
Coding has been glamourized hence why people tend to go into it more than Math or Physics or Chemistry.
When those fields have their own Andela equivalent, you will now see people trooping into the field.

If you want to be a rugged coder, forget two of them... Learn HTML and CSS as much as you can.

CSS might seem confusing at first but as you master it, its like difference between motor mechanic and ordinary motor driver.

Good topic..
Mine is global and local variable. Still confusing till date.

Not also feeling the numpy, matplotlib etc syntax... I just feel it is just too complicated for no just cause.

And why so many programming languages? It is so confusing. Almost like having different English languages... I don't just get it. Why not stick to one language that can address all needs?
I swear matplotlib simple die

Omo no be yam for me that time, I spent 4months reading Java how to program by Deitel Deitel wrapping my head around oop concept, once I got rid of what's holding me down trust me, I ain't turning back.
But trust me its worth the effort
how is your journey in programming? I want to learn it too.. Thanks..

99.99% of the comments so far are barely scratching the surface of programming. like 10% of programming

Nobody mentioned skull-cracking algos and (data structures) like
dijktra's algorithm, lee's algorithm, shortest path in a maze,
BFS and DFS, kruskal and kadane etc . . lol

Mine is OOP in PHP, I started learning with Procedural and got a good grasp of it and finally settled with it only for the youtuber (Daniel Krossing a.k.a MMTuts) to bring out another series for OOP, for Pete's sake,I was confused AF. I relayed my issue with a guy on a programmers'/coding forum and he advised me to stick to the one I understand best but from the little I have heard, most interviewers deal with OOP when it comes to employing because it is much more secure, easier to split with colleagues and makes your code neat.

Another issue is I'm currently battling with and denying myself is JavaScript; I abandoned it before I started, and switched to JQuery.

Trying to be a "full stacker" ain't easy mehn. But I won't give up on JS just yet
