Today I will share some of my coding experience so that many people get some idea about how to start coding. But before starting our conversation further let's try to understand what does coding means. Coding is very much related to the communication between two people. Communication is one way of expressing your thoughts, views, expression to another person. It is the medium that allows you to interact with family members, friends, relatives, society, and your loved ones. In the same way, coding is the medium of interacting with computers. As to communicate we need some language like Hindi, English, Urdu, Punjabi e.t.c, in the same way, to interact with our computer we need a language. The most popular computer language are java, c++, c, c#, python e.t.c.

4.Do not get frustrated by Bugs
If you are getting a lot of errors while compiling then you are on the right track. Do not get panic and frustrated instead again revisit your code and find out where you have made mistakes. If you are not able to debug the code, you can use online resources and can take the help of your faculties and friends. Try to invest more and more time in debugging and it will increase your logical thinking and prepare you for more complex code ahead.
