Programming the industry's entry threshold is high?

There is actually no high threshold for entry into computer programming, the key lies in persistence and hard work. Microsoft's Bill Gates, born in 1955, at the age of 13 in Lakeside Middle School came into contact with the teletypewriter and began computer programming. In other words, in 1968, he also started learning programming as a middle school student, and at that time, the development of computers was only in its infancy, and people knew relatively little about computers. In contrast, in our day and age, our access to knowledge is so much better than it was in his day, and knowledge about all aspects of computers is basically available online and much easier to learn.

The first threshold for learning programming is English, because the computer itself is from the United States and Europe began to start and develop, computer programming in various languages is also mainly in English (there is currently a language called Easy Language can be realized in Chinese programming), so Westerners to learn programming than the Chinese people may have some favorable conditions. But this is not too much of a problem for Chinese people, the vast majority of programming languages used in the English language words are very common and simple vocabulary, junior high school level of English is enough, encountered will not be able to find through the English dictionary, so the threshold is not high.

The second threshold may be the math and logical thinking, mainly in many programming textbooks, example programs and programming exercises in the design of algorithms will be used in high school and college math knowledge, you may learn to program some of the difficulties, but don't worry too much about the textbooks used in the mathematical knowledge will not be too difficult to encounter these can be found online to learn to solve. Unless you are designing a program specifically for scientific computing, the math used in ordinary programming is not too difficult. Another is the logic of thinking, in high school and university courses will have about this teaching content, with this knowledge of the program understanding and algorithm design has a great help, this can be more through the study of routines to gradually solve.

The third threshold should be physics and electronics, some of the textbooks will be in the beginning of the chapter on computer hardware knowledge of some of the content, these will involve some physics and electronics content, these contents are mainly to let the beginner simple understanding of the principles of program operation. This knowledge is mainly in those who explain the primary programming language (such as assembly language) and advanced programming (such as image programming) in the textbook, the general advanced language textbooks are rare, can be completely ignored at the initial stage, but when to achieve a certain level of programming, this aspect of the content is essential.

The fourth threshold may be in terms of knowledge and breadth of practical experience, because the process of programming is actually a reflection of our thinking process towards solving a problem. Typically, the result that appears when the program is run is the result of your thinking; it just mechanically executes what you have programmed. The broader your knowledge and practical experience, the greater your problem-solving ability, the more comprehensive consideration of the problem will be, and the program you programmed will be better. This aspect can only be solved by continuous learning and accumulation.

So there isn't much of a barrier to learning programming for the first time. In addition, the programming idea is basically the same for most programming languages, when you first learn it, you can choose a simpler programming language on the line to learn, through constant imitation routines and exercises to master the syntax of the language, step by step. The learning process is certainly more boring, as long as perseverance, do not get discouraged in the face of difficulties, I believe you will succeed in learning to program.
