How to learn coding from scratch?





With the resources present on the Internet, it is very easy to get started with programming. If you have a laptop/desktop and a reliable Internet connection, you can start your coding journey right now. Follow this roadmap to begin without any confusion.😖😖😖😖😖


Object Oriented Programming Language( OOP )


 Start your coding journey with an OOP Language such as C++. Learn the nitty gritties of it and master the important libraries such as STL. For a detailed strategy to learn C++, check this article. It is equally important to solve different programming problems. This tests if you can actually convert an algorithm into working code. Hackerrank is a good source for covering the basics and solving challenging problems.


Mastering Data Structures and Algorithms


 You should develop the ability to tackle different programming questions by implementing the correct algorithm. This is also crucial for software developer roles, as every company tests the knowledge of algorithms and data structures. Competitive programming websites such as Codechef, Codeforces are some of the recommended sources to begin with.

Building Software

 Start developing your own applications. Simple projects such as web scrapers, document searchers are a good starting point. Learn Python which can be used for developing several web applications. You can also start learning android and web development. You can also build your own portfolio after this.

Specialized Skills

 Try to gain skills which can be leveraged massively. Start with Machine Learning from Andrew Ng’s Coursera course. Join Kaggle and participate in their contests so that you can understand the implementation of ML in the real world. Often the practical use of different ML algorithms is more essential than understanding the theory fully. You can also explore areas such as Cryptography, Network Security depending on your interests.

Let’s dig into the Comparison and Benefits of MEAN Stack Vs MERN Stack!

Gone are the times when web application development was done using JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. Now, the developers use a ‘stack’ of technologies to provide you with a seamless website or application. You don’t know what a stack is or their different types? Don’t worry! We got you! Apart from discussing MEAN stack vs MERN stack in this blog, we will be talking about the basics too! What is a stack? A “Stack” is a combination of programming languages, technologies or even software products. Development stacks are further divided into two categories – Technology stack & application stack. Our topic of discussion today, Mean vs Mern, falls under the category of technology stacks. Apart from these two, another popular technology stack is full-stack. Before we get down to Mean stack vs Mern stack comparison, let’s discuss in brief about Full-stack Vs Mean stack. What is MERN Stack? Just like Mean Stack, Mern Stack is a combination of technologies. Mern Sta...

Python vs Java: Which is best?

Java vs. Python Java and Python have many similarities. Both languages have strong cross-platform support and extensive standard libraries. They both treat (nearly) everything as objects. Both languages compile to bytecode, but Python is (usually) compiled at runtime. They are both members of the Algol family, although Python deviates further from C/C++ than Java does.The community has centered on Python 3. Meanwhile, Oracle’s new release model for Java created a lot of fear, uncertainty, and doubt in the software community. Even though the announcement provided a free (as in beer) option and a clear upgrade path, confusion continues to reign. Several platforms providers, such as Red Hat and Amazon, have stepped in to support OpenJDK. But the once unified Java community is more fragmented than Python ever was. Let’s take a closer look at the similarities and differences between Java vs. Python. Speed In terms of speed, Java is faster than Python as it is a compil...
