About Me

Hey! I'm Hrishikesh. I'm a student who beleive in slef learning than just attending boaring lectures.I love coding and I'm a self taught programmer and coding has changed my world. It's not just about apps,creating websites but learning to code gave me problem-solving skills and a way to communicate with others on a technical level.

Coding also taught me how to think in every day to day life problem. Its really great feeling to have when I solve the someone else's Problem with my coding skill. I can also develop websites and use my coding skills to get a better job.

I love reading books and I learned most of my coding through them, I also used SoloLearn app where they build my self-esteem and keep me motivated. Join me in this rewarding journey. You'll have fun, get help, and learn along the way!

Apart from the coding,I also love watching cricket and I'm a die hard fan of Rohit Sharma, The Hitman of Indian cricket. He is not just a swashbuckling cricketer but a absolute animal lover.He is also runnning the compaign to save the great Indian Rhinos. And that is why he inspires me all the time.

"Declare variables, not war"

Things you should know before getting started in the world of coding .

Let me tell you a story,

When I was in 1st year at BITS,Pilani,Dubai, I did not have the knowledge of single line of code, I used to get very frustrated and I just used to watch towards the board when I was in the class, that was the toughest time of life, I could not imagin myself that I'm a CS student and I'm just a dumb in coding, 'What the hell was that!!'. Where did I go wrong then? The answer is, I was actually waiting that somebody is gonna come and teach me , but my friends, you should know one thing, no-one teach you coding 100% even your university,they just teach you the syntax and pattern of coding but in fact the coding is far different than just syntax, trust me, only one person will help you and that is you. Coding is all about trial and error, it is all about failing and getting up, the more you fail, the more you will get to know. But I had a positive thing in my tank and that is, I was so passionated and curious about it, I always wanted to know the facts behind it, In short I had a hunger to learn it.

Observations from my story:

You will have to start by yourself, you can't be depend on your university all the time,no matter which university you are stuying in.
You are not supposed to be know everything,you just have to be determined. You can start from absolute scratch.
You cant get the Overnight success, you have to be patient while learning and you will learn tons of things in this journey so being specific is gonna difinately help you.

My General View About Coding

In this section, we are gonna have some questions and answers, So lets begin.

Q) What is the perfect age to start the coding ?

I would say you can absolutely start it at the age of 6, yesss!, If you are able to play the mobile games then you are definately able to program the computer. But unfortunately there are so much less schools that are teaching coding. Founders of Facebook, whatsapp, Twitter, Snapchat, Microsoft, Apple, Google and My idol 'Elon Musk' all were master in coding at the very young age.So learning coding in the highschool should not be a myth now.

Q) Who should learn the coding?

Everyone! Yeah! "Everyone in the country should learn coding because it teaches you how to think" and these are not my words,these are words of founder of Apple, 'Steve Jobs'.And I do completely agree with him. If you are a good coder then you will have that tremendous power of solving real world problems. And this is enough explaination to why should anyone be a coder?

Q)Which programming language should I start with ?

Well,There should not be any other languge than 'C' to start with, because it is mother of all programmimg language.Once you got the command over C, you can easily learn any other coding language. C gives you the perfect idea of what coding is all about. Moreover syntax of other languages are logically same. I can't tell you the greatness of C in just one paragraph, you can google it. But I would highly recommend C to be your first coding language.

List Of Books

Here I have given you the most famouse books in the world of coding,these books are way better than any instructor that's why I,personally consider them as my virtual instructor. I have mentioned their link to buy, if you don't wanna buy them and you are comfortable with reading on screen,I have also given the PDF link.
