Introduction

What is a programming language exactly?
Programming is nothing but telling the stupid computer what to do step by step. Computer doesn't understand English, Arabic, French or any other language. We use 'programming language' to tell computer what to do. There are lots of programming languages like: FORTRAN, C, C++, python, Java etc. To solve different types of problem people uses different languages.
Where do you start?
If you are a beginner to programming, I suggest you start with python. Why? Because it's extremely user friendly and also easy to understand. But hey, you are free to choose any language. Once you understand the basics, you will be able to use the same logic for other programming languages as well. For the series "Programming: Beginner to Boss" I will mainly use python. But for "Algorithm: Fun with programming" section, I am planning to use several languages (C++, Python, Java, R...etc). There you will see how all language use the same logic to solve a problem. In this blog I mainly focus on Here I won't focus on any specific language but discuss the main idea about programming and use the examples for c, c++, python and java. Once you get the idea, you will be able to code in any programming language. With the example I will also add an online compiler so that you can run the code and understand the logic behind it. If you have any questions feel free to let me know. How this site is organized?
If you are new to programming, you should start with Programming: Beginner to Boss section. If you have some experience with programming and want to learn how to implement it, you should jump to the Algorithm: Fun with programming section. If you want to work with real programming problems, go to the Problems: Code it to solve it section.
