How to learn a new programming language?
Learning a programming language can be really challenging, if you new to this field. But don’t panic, here is some tipps and strategies to pick up a language quickly. Today I would like to help and motivate you to start your programming journey.
1)Learn basics of programming
Variables, if-else statement, while and for loop etc. These are some basic concepts of programming. Try to make sure you understood these concepts really good, because without strong fundamental knowledge you cannot write complex codes.
2)Learn Object Oriented Programming
Of course this doesn’t apply for all programming languages out there, but basic understanding of object oriented programming can be really powerful tool.
3)Learn some data structures and algorithms
Data structures like queues, stacks, trees and graphs are essential for advenced programming. Try to learn and understand these concepts, after that you can implement some algorithms with these data structures such as Dijkstra or sorting algorithms.
4)Combine the pieces in a software
It’s time to challenge your knowledge with a project. You can build a desktop applicaton or a website. Try to make sure you use the learned concepts, so you can experiment with them.
I hope I helped you at beginning of your programming journey with this brief article. I would be happy to see your constructive comments and questions.
