Why is it that hard to learn programming?
"Oh, programming is so hard!", many friends said like that to me. But, does programming are as hard as they think? The answer is No.
In my opinion, programmer are similar to the pianist. Because, we both work with hands, we both need the ' key ', we both create new things, we both make others happy (Programmer Use the pretty programs, pianist and the Nice song.)
I also know there is really some difficulty in studying programming.
1. Perseverance
When I read the code (just a simple ' Hello World ' program) at the first time, I had some trouble. If I give up on that time, I'll really be a loser. Luckily, I hold on to my dream. Now I can easily write many codes.
so we need perseverance!
2. Modesty
Every programmer'll has trouble in debugging. Sometime we need try many times, we often say "Oh, no! I think the program is perfect! Why does you give me a error! ", for this time, why don ' t you calm down and try to be modest? Then you'll find you wrong.
3. Open to new things
Programmers need study all the time. If he/she don ' t keep up with things, he/she'll be eliminated. But when I had learned the C programming language, and then I need study the python, I found so many difficulty. Because I fear to forget to C or mix them up.
So we must is open to new things, and don ' t fear to them,. If you want-get it well, do it. Nothing would stop you.
4.Use your program to prove yourself!
When your can program well, you'll be interested in programming more programs. But maybe someone would do don't recognise you, never give up, do yourself! Use your program to prove yourself!
This far, I has told all of the difficulty that I met in studying programming. I think the secret in learning programming is:perseverance, modesty, open to new things, use your programs to prove rself! If you know and get them over, you'll be the best one
