How to start learning coding for the first time?

It does not matter whether you are a fresher or an experienced professional and if you have not done any programming before. Remember, that , we can learn at any age. There is no barrier to learnings. So, lets see what can we do to START our programming journey.

1. Keep telling your mind that you can DO it.
2. It’s important and essential in today’s time especially if you are a beginner or want to switch to a better career option.
3. Choose one programming language:
Java
C++
Python
JavaScript
4. Don’t run behind learning all the programming languages. Learn one but learn it well.
5. Understand basics of a programming language like (few are:)
variables
data types
strings
functions
6. Choose one programming editor. We used to use Eclipse and IntelliJ. Now, we have sublime, VS code editor etc. Mostly used and recommended because it supports mostly all the languages.
7. Learn version control management system for example: Git ,Github, Sourcetree etc.(for next level).
8. Now, open your laptop. start downloading the stuff, make a set-up and start coding.
