Should You learn Programming?
I would highly recommend it! For the past month, I’ve been reading on how to program in php. I’m not just talking about developing a site in PHP. I’m talking about developing php code that performs task. Learning as much as I have so far has allowed me to develop my first custom database website by using PHP and MYSQL. At first I was having a lot of problems understanding the code to have my site retrieve the data from the mysql database with php but eventually I started to understand. Seeing that I am a more visual learner I needed to test out different codes instead of just reading it or having someone tell me it. I would read it then try it!
If I didn’t decide to learn how to program in php, I can honestly say, “it would set me back in my success as an Internet Publisher”. If I knew what I know now, I would have begun learning how to program in the beginning. It makes the process of adding content and developing larger websites so much easier. The funny part is I’ve just scratched the surface of the programming and loving it already.
If you want to start learning about programming, begin with the basics even though it might seem over whelming. After a couple of weeks the code will begin making sense.
