Answers:
There are 3 possible reasons to choose to learn computer programming:
1. You need a career choice; you have a technical aptitude; you are fascinated by computers, their operation, and their use, and (possibly) you think the knowledge will help in your current technical coursework at a university. The breadth of the subject area is immense; it includes understanding the internals of computers (systems); information technology (or IT), which is how computers are used in various businesses to manipulate, store or transmit the information that is truly central to those businesses; and applications, which is the low-level detail of what is done with each little bit of information in a narrowly defined business function, like accounting, customer service, tech support, management reporting, stockholder/lines-of-business reporting and forecasting.
Programming is only essential for getting into this last category of work, applications. It is helpful to undertand what the computer is doing when you work in the other two areas, IT and systems, or corporate management.
2. If you want to design computer systems you may not require the learning of programming. The language(s) and style may be different or unique when you are finally employed in the use of or planning with comoputers. Learning programming now may be premature. It will certainly be helpful if you want to work in applications. Programming languages for applications all resemble each other and the programming techniques and tools resemble each other across many applications.
3. But if you're asking whether you should learn computer programming to solve real-world problems (at home or for your current employer), there's a simple answer for being self-employed or having a personal use for the computer, and a different simple answer if you're already with an employer.
When it comes to solving a personal challenge (like at home or for an original technical idea), you will, for most situations find some "off-the-shelf" computer program or system that solves the problems you have in mind. It is rare, but possible you'll have to learn computer programming for your unique self-made situation. (Look first for the software being sold.)
On the other hand, if you're thinking your present employer could make better use of you, or you'd be more valuable to your bosses with this education, the answer is very dependent upon your career path and whether your employer encourages you in that direction. For that feedback, you need to ask.
You don't say whether you've already obtained advanced instruction in management, accounting, or a technical field like astronomy, engineering, or chemistry. Computer programming can be a help in any of those areas, or it can be a distraction if you want to have a job or career where you deal primarily with people. It is only very unusual jobs where you can deal both with computer internals or operations and people. You may have to choose between those two types of careers.
If you are young, you may need career counseling, and only someone familiar with what you want can give you advice that is not too slanted to that advisor's experience.
The first thing you should learn is how to write and spell.
Who knows what you are asking? I don't!
No, Do what I did and marry a programmer. It's a whole lot easier.
Yesh u shlud. Cmoupters are the wvae of the fture and cmputeer prgoamers mkae ltos of mnoney. Guod lcuk!
