Just a small tip from a programmer who used to program back in 90s using turbo C++... which helped me a lot back in the younger years, Our teacher used to make us write whole set of code on paper with pen... not allowed to touch computer... and I remember I was so good that I could literally write a small code without any error... and the idea behind this exercise was that the whole code is been compiled in your brain and I used to know exactly what is the value of variables at any given time... but I know it is valid only for smaller codes... But I guess if we break our code in modules and practice to write away from computer on paper... it will clear our concepts much more... just something that worked with me... ;)
Sajjad bhai, super valuable insight! Thanks for sharing :) White board or paper coding really helps you think about the problem you're approaching instead of entering code into an IDE and compiling it right away.
@@AhmedZaidi Modern compilers can actually guide you while you are writting a code if the syntax is right or wrong... back in our times the compilers were not really intelligent... it used to give us only number of errors (like how many errors are in the code) in without even highlighting where is the error. So we were forced to go through it letter by letter and finding the error manually... so writting code on paper helped us develop our own logical brain... anyhow, things get obsolete with time... new things take place...
@@ObaidahNaseer actually it was years ago when i was using turbo C++ and hardly made a move to MS visual suite of IDEs before i gaveup and moved to animation and design industry...
I also use Mac! macOS is built upon on the Unix operating system which is also used in Linux systems. So programming on a Mac is virtually the same as Linux. In my opinion Mac is one of the best and most user friendly systems to learn how to code. Short answer: No need to purchase another system.
Let me know why you haven't started your coding journey; or if you started and stopped, what made you stop?
Awesome! Thank u Ahmed
As someone who just starting coding, this video really helped me a lot. Thank you. ✌✌

Your videos just get improving......
Thank you bro!
Great video Ahmed. Full of great advice! 👨💻
Thanks Aun! Big fan of your book summaries 😊
Thank you for this video. Quick question I use Mac. Should I purchase another system like windows or Linux?

One of my Best Investments in terms of time is watching this video , this is a high return over investment and good job
👍
