Computer
programming (often shortened to programming or
coding)
is the process of writing, testing,
debugging/troubleshooting, and
maintaining the source
code of computer programs. This source code is
written in a programming language. Some common
languages include Visual
Basic, C++, Java, Python, C# and others. The code may be a modification
of an existing source or something completely new. The purpose of
programming is to create a program that exhibits a certain desired
behavior. The process of programming requires three major parts
including the of planning (and development algorithms), coding and
debugging. A good
programmer spends about 45% of the time of
programming in planning and developing algorithms, 10% in coding and
the remaining time in testing and debugging. The process of writing
source codes requires expertise in many different subjects, including
knowledge of the application domain, specialized
algorithm, and formal
logic.
Programs can be described as an art, a craft or an engineering
discipline. Good programming is generally considered to be the measured
application of all three, with the goal of producing an efficient and
maintainable software solution. The discipline differs from many other
technical professions in that programmers generally do not need to be
licensed or pass any standardized certification tests in order to call
themselves "programmers" or even "software engineers".
To be a good programmer you must take you must first of be well equiped
in the field of planning and developing algorithms then go on to learn
a suitable programming language, start programming and I tell you are a
programmer.
