1. Master your favorite programming languages

To express and implement your logical ideas in the machine, we write codes. This simply means that the person having a strong knowledge of programming languages such as Java, Python, C/C++ etc, can better put their ideas into actions. However, programming languages also evolve like any other language! Hence, programmers are not expected to learn each one of them. But it is advised to be friends with at least two programming languages as per your domain’s requirements.

Here are the best 10 programming languages to learn in 2021.

2. Copy, Paste, And LEARN!

We as programmers have already honed the skill of googling smart! Especially domains such as web development, we often look at beautiful websites and pick up what we want to put in ours. Surprisingly, this is a real skill. Don’t simply copy, paste and repeat. Make sure to learn everything you once copied! Researching can make you learn a hundred things with the least effort. 

3. Mathematical skills

If we say, programming is syntax and mathematics, we wouldn’t be exaggerating. The importance of mathematics cannot be overstated as far as programming is concerned. So if you’re looking for a job at big names such as Google, make sure to have a solid base in mathematics. 

4. Are you a Problem-solver?

Programming in simple terms is nothing but a set of instructions for the machine to solve a particular problem. Strong programming means a good grasp of problem-solving skills. If you want to be a good programmer, you need to develop the skill of identifying problems and finding the most efficient solutions for the same.

5. Communication is the key

Coders spend most of their time in front of a computer system. However, real world problems require them to work with teams in order to complete a huge task. As people in the team can have varying backgrounds, recruiters ensure that everybody can communicate their ideas effectively. Therefore, good communication skills will always improve your chances of getting selected.
