Coding
Coding
Coding, also known as computer programming, is the process of designing, writing, testing, and maintaining the instructions that a computer follows to perform a specific task or solve a problem. These instructions, written in a programming language, are used to create software, apps, websites, and other digital products.
Coding provides hands-on experience on:
- 1. Web development: Building websites, web applications, and mobile applications.
- 2. Mobile app development: Creating apps for Android and iOS devices.
- 3. Game development: Designing and building video games.
- 4. Artificial intelligence and machine learning: Developing intelligent systems that can learn and adapt.
BENEFITS OF CODING
- 1. Improved problem-solving skills and critical thinking.
- 2. Logical thinking: Coders use logical reasoning and algorithms to write efficient code.
- 3. Creativity and innovation: Coding enables developers to express their creativity and bring new ideas to life.
- 4. Career opportunities: Knowing how to code can lead to exciting career opportunities in tech.
- 5. Personal growth: Learning to code can be a rewarding and challenging experience.
