Programming is important for the future, where every day it takes more boom in the daily life of each one of us, it is something that we can not avoid. The great impulse towards a not too distant future where everything will be computerized and behind that big lines of codes.
But a large number of people will ask themselves; ¿But will it be easy to learn to program? everything is made easy for us if we dedicate enough time to learn something, and as the saying goes "it's never too late to learn".
Although programming is a language that can be difficult to understand, many experts in the field say that in the not too distant future, knowing computer code, its operation, etc., will be a skill that everyone should have, regardless of their profession or office ¿Will this be true?
We have to be clear that programming as a strategic point is to adapt ideas, curiosities and concerns in lines of codes that will allow you to have a concrete result of what you have achieved.
We live in a world of full technology, but behind these objects there is a lot of code. Then leave us a question do we want to be a consumer or software creators? If you want to write code you can fragment a big problem into small problems that will make your job easier.
There is no established age to learn to write codes and know how to start coding. However it would be very helpful, in schools to teach children to have a structural thinking for the construction of software, then there comes the big question. ¿Is programming important for the future?
This will be a great step towards a very different future, where the vast majority can simplify their problems. Then let's start doing something different and from which you will acquire a new way of seeing things. ¿Will you take the first step?
Here I will leave you some of the thoughts of one of the great programmers
"Learning to program extends your mind and helps you think better, creates a way of thinking about things that I think is useful in all fields"
-Bill Gates-
"Everyone in this country (EU) must learn to program a computer because (that) teaches you to think"
-Steve Jobs-
Here I will place some of the applications to be able to take the first steps in programming
Hopscotch: With this application children will learn the basics in programming, while having fun in a dynamic and entertaining way. It should be noted that this software is designed only for iPad.
Scratch: This application is suitable for children 8 years and older. It was created by MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology). For the purpose of children, they master visual programming language and learn to code.
Code Monster: It is a space where children, youth and adults learn programming, robotics and computers while they create robots, video games and other devices. With this nice created monster the programming will go from being complicated to being magical.
