Few jobs are safe choices for a future career. However, the
programmer job is guaranteed as being a „gold bracelet”. Who and
especially how can one innitiate this path? A respected
specialist from Silicon Valley will answer these questions for us.
His name is Andrei Alexandrescu - and is known as the "Romanian
from Facebook". And he came to iLikeIT with Walter Bright and
Scott Myers. All three are among the world’s brightest minds in
the software field. Andrei Alexandrescu and Walter Bright have
been working on D language programming for 9 years and Scott
Meyers is a famous author of ++ books (C++ is exactly the
programming language that D is supposed to replace).
They came to hold a conference in Brasov, then visited Romania
and finally arrived in the iLikeIT studio. Walter Bright says he
began programming when he was bored playing games and started to
look in their code to modify it. Then, he has been working in C++
for years, with a continuous desire to improve it - and the
easiest way to do this was to create his own programming language.
"The easiest way to persuade young people to learn programming is
to find something that's useful and can guarantee immediate
success. Therefore, I think they should first take up programming
on mobile devices, " said Scott Meyers.
You can learn more about programming visiting Code.org - which is
supported by Facebook - or RosettaCode.org. Both are very good
for young people who want to initiate a programming career.
