Coding is a familiar term to professionals especially software engineers. But is it an unfriendly term??..I dont want to make any wierd comments on 'coding' since its a part of my career too...Generally speaking, youngsters are fond of computers but majority of them are scared of Coding...Untill i completed my college ,i too had a misconception that Coding is a group event...an out of order scenario....many human brains struggling behind an entire functional application...There are different phases in developing a Software application:: Scope clarification,Requirement specification,planning and designing, Coding, validation ,integration, testing,debugging and deployment...Sharing Ideas and Group effort ,ultimately ends up in a deliverable ,functional end-product.. But the joyful programming phase will never be back... Things turning more serious..once upon a time,we started writing programs by debugging an empty file... :) ..its high time ....Rejuvenate your brain , develop a software application by yourself ....Be happy when u could do a small application alone and feel proud "this is my code"...Thats the spirit....
There's an old saying...Computers are like Old testaments, they show no mercy on us....i dont fully agree with it.A userfriendly computer first requires a friendly user.If so, they deliver outputs that we desire, otherwise display strange erroneous signals on the screen,making the users feel uneasy.its like..They do what we desire if we do what they desire...Skills of the users must be tuned to the level of computers intelligence.Not even a single punctuation or token misplaced, will be forgiven. Ego of an intelligent machine or wat??? Nope.....its been programmed to be a perfectionist may be.... When Bugs appear, why worry?'Thats a bug,its a feature..' hehe!!!We,humans are more intelligent,Hence we fix it.Computers make more accurate mistakes ,then why do they act wierd if we make silly mistakes... :( We are the masters ...we give inputs...they wont know even if we lie....I have often come across a joke- 'Try to program a document, not to document a program'....hehe!!This way the computing machine is being friendly with us.... 'Hit any key to continue' is an offer computers make to their friends....But still cant get control of it.. we make mistakes, but hardly can we compromise it... but they get wrong inputs means, they will give u clue on the wrong inputs fed to them and its just a matter of Ctrl+Z ......All back into the right track...........Ctrl+S saves everything even though its a 1000 page long document.....Ctrl+X to cut ....Ctrl+C to copy....Ctrl+V to paste.....Ctrl+O to open ....Ctrl+F to find......Ctrl+A to select all that u have on your monitor... :) Forgot anything??....dont worry! check Backups....No panic at all.....Humans often show their superiority to work they do and say "i am right and u are wrong".But computers are compromising.... Again!They do multitasking...Hats off.. We also do mutiple tasks at the same time..but no compliments...What more to say...Software professionals always break rules, so do the machines we work with.....We work in airconditioned enviornment with All windows wide Open.Then why have an ego clash with the intelligent machine!!
