How Hard is it to program

I want to learn programming but how hard is it?

About as hard as learning your way around a woman

Ask a vague question, get a vague answer

Now go find a beginner's Java tutorial and find out for yourself, that's the only way to get an answer

what do you want to program. and in what language?

I would say its just like learning a new language. You have to learn the vocabulary and syntax of the code, along with learning how things function and breaking down simple human motor functions in to an algorithm. If you follow a book or online tutorial you can learn it pretty quick on your own. Honestly, schools teach it too slowly for my taste.

I wouldn't say it's as hard as learning a new language...but I guess it can be comparable.

More or less if you can do simple logic and have dedication you can learn programming.

I just say its as hard because you have to learn the syntax and grammar of the coding language as well as algorithms. Also, being able to know which libraries are needed for your software and the different functions each library holds. But I agree with the simple logic and dedication statement.

Hard, but if you dedicate yourself to it you should pick it up pretty quickly

Eh

lol

Programming fault tolerant, user friendly applications while using solid programming methodologies.
Pretty hard.

Creating a trainer for Neopets, not so hard.
