Unknowingly, you have become a programmer, but now you are in the initial stage, so how do you grow up and become an advanced programmer? The following seven suggestions are given to you who are growing up, hoping that you can become a senior programmer.
1. Solve your own problems
There is a difference between getting answers from outside and solving problems and finding answers yourself. When you solve a problem yourself, you not only solve that one problem, but you also solve millions of problems like it. This is a process of investing first and reaping later. Sometimes you may need to spend 2 or 3 days solving a problem, and that's okay; it's your upfront investment.
2. Start by making a small program
A small program refers to about 100 lines. So far, the book "Java Programming Tutorial Experiment Manual (Deitel and Deitel)" is one of the best programming books. From Chapter 1 to Chapter 10, do all the exercises in it. When you have done this, you will have a good grasp of programming.
3. Counterfeit software
Find a website or game you like and copy it. Before you actually want to do a project, do this first. This will enable you to learn cutting-edge programming techniques and make it easier for you to be selected by recruiting companies. After doing 3-5 such imitation projects, you can achieve anything you want.
4. Learn something new with every project
Every project strives to use something new that you have heard but never used. If you have never used Jquery, use it in your next project; if you have not tried test-driven development, your next project will be your guinea pig; you understand what I mean, right?
5. Say yes
If someone asks you to do something for him, remember to say "yes" - if you have never done anything for others If something. I know you're probably thinking, I have tons of stuff to do myself, but speaking from experience, in addition to spending the majority of your time on your own profitable projects, you should also spend some time on charity projects. By doing this you will gain recognition, people will think of you, and they will refer you if the opportunity arises for a conversation.
6. Make programmer friends
This is another way to get referral opportunities. There's always a chance that your programmer friend's plate is full and they need someone to take over the excess business opportunities. This is when they need you to show up. Likewise, you need someone to take the work away from you when your plate doesn’t fit.
7. Become a field expert
Be knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and be proficient in at least one of them. The world of programming is huge, and no one can master everything, so have a specialty. For example, become an expert in native applications or financial software.
We cannot reach the top of the mountain in one step. We must grow slowly. I hope the above suggestions will be helpful to you.
