Coding vs Programming



Today I will be talking about a very big misunderstanding among people which is:
The difference between coding and programming these two are taught to be synonymous/similar, well am here to clarify that and fully explain what they are.


CODING VS PROGRAMMING

Coding and programming are often thought to be the same but they are not, Coding is the process of translating and writing codes from one language to another, whereas Programming is the process of building an executable program that can be used to carry out proper machine level outputs. Coding only deals with the codes, and so it is less intimidating and less intensive.


WHERE DOES CODING COME IN?
So coding is just part of the process of programming but it's not programming itself, so you can say coding is like pathway you must learn in order to learn programming, because in order to create programs writing codes is a step you must take, and you write these codes in a special language called Programming languages.

So I hope that you understand the difference of coding and programming.

How to Learn to Code with Python

LEARN TO CODE WITH PYTHON  In todays blog post I will be talking about how to learn to code(especially with python programming language), and I will point out the best way to learn to code according to my experience. 1 - Consistency/Code daily Consistency is very important when you are learning a new language. making a commitment to code every day is really helpful. It may be hard to believe, but muscle memory plays a large part in programming. Committing to coding everyday will really help develop that muscle memory. Though it may seem daunting at first, consider starting small with 25 minutes everyday and working your way up from there. 2 - Take Notes As you progress on your journey as a new programmer, you may wonder if you should be taking notes. Yes, you should! In fact, research suggests that taking notes by hand is most beneficial for long-term remembrance. Once you start working on small or big projects and programs, writing by hand can also help you plan your code before y...
