Computer programming (often shortened to programming or coding) is the process of designing, writing, testing, debugging / troubleshooting, and maintaining the source code of computer programs. This source code is written in a programming language. The code may be a modification of an existing source or something completely new. The purpose of programming is to create a program that exhibits a certain desired behaviour (customization). The process of writing source code often requires expertise in many different subjects, including knowledge of the application domain, specialized algorithms and formal logic.

What programming languages should a vocational student be taught?
Q. This is a general (business/computer) program offered 9-12 (three to four year requirement). Students are learning basic computer features (IC3 certifications), Microsoft Office (MCAS certifications). I need to offer these students a year of programming. What do you think would be beneficial to help them get a taste from programming. These students will not have any prior computer programming knowledge. I do not want to scare them. Plus remember this is an inclusive classroom.

A. Since this general computer program deals with business then you might want to consider teaching your students something like HTML, Visual Basic, Java and etc. HTML is used in creating web pages and so your students might find it interesting and practical to create their own web pages and upload it to a web server Visual Basic is a special version of the easy-to-use BASIC programming language and is a complete software development tool that makes the creation of sophisticated Windows programs quick, easy, and fun. Visual Basic is a good beginning computer programming course for many reasons...for example your students can create Visual Basic applications to store and manage information in a database So I also think Visual Basic would… [cont.]

What programming language should i start with?
Q. Ok, so i'm 15 years old. Ive tried programming in the past, and it was very hard for me. It struck my mind that i might have started out with the wrong kind of programming. Should i start with C++ ? Java? If so , where should i learn it? Any book recommendations? Online free courses? The type of programming i was hoping to do was something that would make me a bit of money, in case i ever needed it. What kind of programs would i have to code to do this? Thanks for your time.

Can you start programming in college and end up majoring computer science?
Q. From what I hear, most CS majors started programming while they were very young. This is kind of discouraging to someone who wants to start programming or is interested in the field. What are your thoughts on this?
Asked by Thy D - Sun Sep 6 23:23:47 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Well, I was one of those types who started programming young - in my case, when I was in high school (but this was back in the 80s when computers were more expensive - if it had been 10 years later I probably would have started in junior high or grade school). Anyway, all I can tell you is, it doesn't matter if you did programming when you were young or not - what matters is whether you can understand it and learn it when you *do* start to study it - and starting sooner is always better than later.

Computer programming (often simply programming or coding) is the craft of writing a set of commands or instructions that can later be compiled and/or interpreted and then inherently transformed to an executable that an electronic machine can execute or "run".

In one case a member of the Upper, and in the other a member of the Lower House put this question. I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.
