in #devjr-s20w118 days ago (edited)

In today's world programming is very essential skill for us. It can power most of the modern infrastructure. Programming languages can form the foundation of innovation from our daily used app to many advanced work. If we learn programming, we can gain the ability to interact with machines. We can also develop a mindset of problem-solving, critical thinking, and creativity. So I want to thank @alejos7ven to organize this course in SEC season 20 which is named "Basic programming course" and today i am participating on the first lesson.

Describe in your own words an algorithm of some activity you do daily.

As a student, I have to go to my university daily and this is my one of the daily activity. So now i am writing an algorithm for going to my university. The algorithm is given below,

Algorithm for going to my university:

  • Start
  • Wake up when the alarm rings.
  • Brush my teeth and wash my face.
  • Take a shower and get dressed.
  • Have my breakfast.
  • Pack my bag with necessary items.
  • Check the time.
  • Leave the house.
  • Head to the bus stop.
  • Take transportation to my university.
  • Arrive at my university.
  • Go to my classroom.
  • Start attending my classes.
  • End.
What is the importance of programming languages in the world? How do they help us?

Programming languages always play a vital role in the digitalization of the modern world. They allow us to create software, automate tasks, and solve complex problems across various fields. Here I am showing some importance of programming languages and they are given below,

Global Communication: Now a days the internet, social media, and cloud computing is very important for us and these things rely on programming. Programming languages make it possible to communicate globally for us. We can also share information instantly, and connect people from different parts of the world because of these programming languages.

Technological Advancements: These programming languages are the foundation of modern technology. The development of software, mobile applications, websites and artificial intelligence is possible because of these programming languages.

Automation: It can easily decrease human error and boost productivity. Programming languages are crucial for everything from data processing to automation and industrial manufacturing.

Job Opportunities : In our todays society There is a growing need for qualified programmers. Finance, healthcare, and entertainment sectors are made up of programming languages. Our programming skills can opens up several employment options and benefits the global economy for us.

A reliable computer or device is essential for writing and executing code. Then I have to chose a programming language which will be suited to my task, such as Java, Python, JavaScript, or C++ and depending on what I'm building, I have to choose. A tool like Visual Studio Code, Notepad++, PyCharm, or Eclipse can help me to write, manage, and test my code. These pre-built tools and functions can save my time and simplify the development, offering solutions that I can easily integrate into my projects. Having a clear understanding of the problem I can solve or the goal I am working for toward keeps me on track. Good logic and algorithm skills can help me to structure my code and ensure it functions effectively.

Beside these, I will also need access to official language documentation, libraries, and coding tutorials to look up syntax or troubleshoot issues. Tools like debuggers and testing frameworks can help me to ensure my code works as expected by finding and fixing errors. Internet access is also essential for researching, downloading libraries, and accessing the coding community or resources. I have to be patience and persistence because these are the key while facing challenges in code. A problem-solving mindset will help me to think critically and find solutions to issues as they arise.

Write your first "Hello world!" Using pseudo-code.

In this part, I am going to show you all the steps for my first "Hello world!" Using pseudo-code. The steps are given below,

Step 1: At first i opened my browser and went to this website

Hello dear friend...you have made a very beautiful entry and the most fascinating part for me was the pseudo-coding part. I drew from your inspiration even to create mine. Thanks and Weldone. I wish you the very best.
