SEE WHAT BILL CLINTON AND OTHER SAY ABOUT PROGRAMMING

PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON

At a time when people are saying "I WANT A GOOD JOB- I GOT OUT OF COLLEGE AND I COULDN'T FIND ONE", every single year in America, there is a standing demand for  120,000 people who are training in computer Science.

BILL GATES 

CHAIRMAN-MICROSOFT

Learning to write programs streches your mind and helps you to think better, creates a way about doing things that i think is helpful in all domain.             

CHRIS BOSH

(wrote code in high school)

NBA-ALL STAR_MIAMI HEAT

Coding is very important when you think about the future, where everything is going. With more phones and tablets and computers being made, and more people having access to everything and information being shared. I think its very important to be able to learn the language of coding and programming.

MARCO RUBIO

SENATOR-FLORIDA

Computer programmers are in great demand by American businesses, across the tech sector, banking, entertainment, you name it. These are some of the highest paying Jobs, but there are not enough graduates to fill these opportunities

MARK ELLIOT ZUCKERBERG

FOUNDER _ FACEBOOK

Our policy at Facebook is literally to hire as many talented engineers as we can find. There just aren't enough people who are trained and have these skills today. 

RANDY WEINGARTEN

PRESIDENT- AMERICAN FEDERATION OF TEACHERS

Computers have and will continue to change our world, and programmers will continue to be essential, but I know first by studying FORTRAN, that many of us get intimidated by it and we shouldn't be. Computer Programming has become far more accessible to teach and learn , and our country needs more students to learn it.

"THERE IS NO LIMIT TO WHAT YOU CAN THINK, THERE IS NO LIMIT TO WHAT YOUR THOUGHTS CAN PRODUCE, THERE IS NO LIMIT TO HOW MUCH YOUR MIND'S PRODUCTS CAN AFFECT LIVES (+VELY), THERE'S NO LIMIT TO WHICH THOSE LIVES CAN CHANGE OUR WORLD.

REFLECTIONS

I dropped this post on my Facebook account few days ago, I'll love to share it with my blog readers. Its still about my mentor. It's not meant to imply that this blog is all about my mentor, but what will I do to surprise my someone who played a v.important role in my life(mentor) ? Just like MT N's current Christmas question, my answer to it is TELL HIS STORY TO THE WORLD. That's just what I'm doing. Also, the idea of telling his story to the world is not from  MTN, it's my IDEA! I was overwhelmed to discover that promo. I'll probably vote him in.

HERE WE GO:

Reading through our previous chat motivates me, although he rarely replies my WHATSAPP chat, but as busy and tight as his schedule may be, he makes out time to say "Hi Daniek", and then spells it right, Hi Daniel(typographical error tho)lol. Presenting my line of codes full of bugs (i should rather say, "presenting bugs to him>> because nothing seemed to work right") and unfinished work scares the spongy stuff in my chest and it accelerates faster. On observing the anxiety on my face, he gently says, let's see what Daniel has here.

while (daniel expects heartwarming comments){
       he checks out the code;
       comments;
       daniel gets dissapointed in himself and is challenged to make it look better next time;
}

He will emphatically say>> "This is logic error" (I never knew what that meant, i just read about it recently). Thank God!!!! It was not Syntax Error.(because i knew what syntax error is). Even if he did explain, i never understood what logic eror meant, and the day i did, i recalled what he said in one of our meetings *I QUOTE*

 "99% OF WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN PROGRAMMING IS NOT FROM WHAT I TELL YOU, IT'S WHAT YOU LEARN AND DISCOVER ON YOUR OWN".
                                                                                                     

 If you intend to program it should be something you need to know, and do not forget if you are reading this, I should be you mentor because you saw it here:::on my blog.|just kidding|. As warped as it may seem, meeting someone like him is more that inspiring, LIKE I SAID, 10 lines of his story swept me off my feet.

Until he mentioned that his hobbies include arguments and his unwillingness to submit to someone Else's knowledge as a result of a perfect certainty of what he knows, I would have insisted he's a phlegm. His words were "I love to argue out what I know, else I'll rather keep mute". At that point I discovered he's choleric. Stern at my act of laze in not being able to write simple loops to get works done, and my flimsy excuses for such occurrence. As much as I thought I had excuses, ten lines of his story. swept me off my feet. Most surprising was how he got his first computer 213mb Ram, (cant recall the hdd size).
