Dr Diamond 407 Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 I am considering teaching myself how to code, as it is a big advantage for work, even if my current job doesnt require me to be able too. Which programming language(s) would you advise that I try to get to grips with first ? GazzaGarratt 1 Chookes said:I absoloutely prefer it this way. You have overall more control. You can finish one guy off first, or all ten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which programming language(s) would you advise that I try to get to grips with first ? Depends in what you need it for. Maybe try HTML to begin with? If you're going to be looking at lots of data, then maybe SQL is,better for you.Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyberninja2601 1,103 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 I would agree that it depends. People on my team do HTLM, Python, tcl, C++ depending on the project. Most of them are rather similar, once you learn one, they others come easily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazzaGarratt 10,888 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Have you tried CodeAcadmemy online? I started this a few years back and not made much progress but it's still is a great place that is free but you can also see instant results to what you code. If it's free, theres no harm in starting there Adam @Dr Diamond 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't come across this but then how would I know if it's wrong?! Shame as its free, any others that's better Rachel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leonvegas 3 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Rather than the balls deep approach lol, it's often better to start on a platform these days. Here's a link to ours, I think it's all free: https://www.ibm.com/cloud/get-started Then after you're up and running, do a bit of design thinking, come up with a fantastic idea https://www.ibm.com/design/thinking/ And then go balls deep in python or whatever to get bits to do what you want However if it's for work, and the IT projects are sizeable then it's probably better to skim actual coding, and focus on the design thinking /agile creation and devops delivery (The making it happen side) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
