Have you been researching how to become a programmer and which programming language you should start with? Then this blog is for you.

You may already have used software, perhaps for word processing or spreadsheets, to solve problems. Now you are curious to learn how programmers write code.

Programming is the process of designing and building an executable computer program to accomplish a specific Computation result or to perform a particular task. Programming involves tasks such as analysis, generating algorithms, resource consumption, and the implementation of algorithms in a chosen programming language.

Programming Languages

The basics of programming are programming languages. Each programming language has a unique set of keywords and a special syntax for organizing program instruction. The total number of Computer languages to exist is approximately 9,000, though there are 50 that are the most popular in use

The top 5 In-demand programming languages to learn are:

  1. Python

Main Use Cases:

  • Data Science
  • Data Analytics
  • Artificial Intelligence, Deep Learning
  • Web Development

2)Java

Main Use Cases:

  • Enterprise Application Development
  • Android App Development
  • Big Data
  • Web Development

3)JavaScript

Main Use Cases:

  • Web Development
  • Backend Development
  • Mobile App Development
  • Serverless Computing
  • Browser Game Development

4) C#

Main Use Cases:

  • Server-Side programming
  • App development
  • Web Development
  • Game Development
  • Software for Windows Platform

5)C/C++

Main Use Cases:

  • System Programming
  • Game Development
  • IoT and Real-Time Systems

“Practice makes a man perfect

There are many websites where you can practice coding and become a master in a particular programming language, for example, hacker rank, hacker earth, code chef, etc.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step

Code-Run-Seek 3.0 is a virtual event consisting of 3 rounds. In the first round, participants will get 7–8 questions to solve them.

In the second round, the participants will be given four clues and they have to go through the websites and Instagram handle of IEEE-WIE and IEEE-IAS to find answers.

In the third round, a set of 2 new questions will be there to code through hacker rank with slight difficulty.

Start your programming journey with us! See you there!
