What is coding

Without it, we’d have none of the most popular technology we’ve come to rely on such as
Facebook, our smartphones, the browser we choose to view our favorite blogs, or even the
blogs themselves. It all runs on code.
How coding works
The capabilities of a computer are guided by on and off switches, or transistors. Binary code
represents these on and off transistors as the digits 1 and 0. An infinite number of combinations
of these codes make your computer work. In order to make binary code manageable, computer
programming languages were formed. These languages each serve different purposes, but they
all allow programmers to translate important commands into binary code.
Is learning to code difficult
The easiest coding languages only involve a few hundred terms and rules to remember. That’s
a tiny sliver in comparison to learning a spoken foreign language. Once the easier languages
are mastered, it’s relatively simple to learn other ways to code. Many programming languages
use similar methods to code and debug computer applications.
