The document discusses the importance of programming skills for the future. It notes that most jobs will require some level of programming knowledge as technologies change rapidly. It provides tips for becoming an adept programmer, such as using the right tools, practicing often, and leveraging online resources. The document also contrasts amateur programmers, who may only code what they're told and not test their work, with professional programmers, who bring experience and focus on architecture. Finally, it lists some career opportunities for skilled programmers that utilize common languages like Python, Java, and C++.

industry WHY THE FUTURE NEEDS MORE PROGRAMMERS • The technology is changing so abruptly that its getting hard for majority of the population to catch up to it • Adaptation is the forte of human being • The best way to prepare for the future is to frequently update yourself in the present WHY THE FUTURE NEEDS MORE PROGRAMMERS • Researchers believe that jobs will change to dynamic skill requirement • Most jobs description will involve some kind of programming knowledge • Programming is a convergence of skills and knowledge from major fields HOW TO BE AN ADEPT PROGRAMMER
• Use the correct tools
(add logos of VS Code, JetBrains, Vim, Code blocks) • Know your tools(it’s better to practice first ) HOW TO BE AN ADEPT PROGRAMMER
• Internet is your friend
(add logos of StackOverflow, Geeksforgeeks, W3 Schools) • Practice makes perfect DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN AMATURE AND A PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMMER • Experienced programmers remember how long it took to overcome this personal assumption. • The first step is always to write quality software that fulfills the spec. Average programmers quit at that point and move on to the next thing. • Write the software to prove to yourself that the solution is possible. Others may not recognize that this is just proof of concept, but you do. • Working on personal programming projects has many advantages. It gives you a way to learn tools and technologies that aren’t available at your current job, but which make you more marketable for the next one. • Focus on the programming fundamentals, because the basics never change, pay more attention to architecture than to programming. Rechecking give no harm. • The professional programmer brings his or her full brain, experience, and creativity to the job. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN AMATURE AND A PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMMER • An amateur sometimes chooses only the fun parts. • They only code exactly what they are told. And there's nothing wrong with that reply in some cases. You have to use your own brain and do the given task to improve your programming skills, no matter if you go wrong. • That programmer will probably do a bit of testing on his or her own code. • An amateur programmer is likely to just code ahead on the next features rather than doing the more helpful--but to some, less desirable--work of helping test. • )The amateur can write code and not be concerned that no users are benefitting from that code until a tester catches up and tests it weeks later.
