Never quit!! Why?

Question

Reasons not to quit learning programming

Answer 1

You're welcome to quit if you like, if it's not for you then that is fine, it is not a mandatory skill to have; infact, many people just take it up as a hobby.

If you feel this as a hobby too, or if it's a field you would like to get in to as a career option for example, then the last thing you want to be doing is giving up, of course. Just like with verbal languages, one must continue to practice or "speak" with programming languages in order to maintain their knowledge, and even learn more about the language they're speaking in. No one knows 100% of any language, there is always more to learn.

Continuous practice will enable you to maintain the knowledge you gain from sources like Sololearn, and you will begin to apply that knowledge to real-world situations, naturally.

Answer 2

Because programming is awesome and powerful.
It is financial rewarding,dynamic enough if you dont like routine work.
Gives you the good feel because you are solving real world problems.
Actually good to be part of the future.
Technology is life.

Answer 3

Answer 4

giving up is a proof that you don't know what you want...
it means your are not passionate about what you are doing!!!
the world needs US... don't give up..
the greatest programmers also stumbled and fell at a point, but decided to keep pressing until they reach their goal....

Answer 5

Programming is a wide-spectrum tool: if you need it, you will learn it, like it and master it.
But if you do not need it it's fare to stop after a try:
I don't have much use of a chainsaw if I write poetry....

Answer 6

Software development is like learning to swim. When you first see all the water, you wonder how you'll float, much less learn the techniques used in the different stokes. However, after a while it becomes natural to you, and you don't see all the all the water, you see the opportunity to swim.

If you stick with programming, you'll develop your self-esteem, confidence with a computer, and the respect of your peers. You simply need to learn how to swim around all the code.

I'll throw in that, if Ruby is your first language, you may want to start with a language with a simpler syntax, like ANSI C, or SCRATCH.
