Why kids shoud learn to code?

Question

and what age is best to get them started?

Answer 1

Knowing me, I'd say as young as possible. :>
Still, age doesn't really matter when it comes to programming.

Answer 2

Easier to start when you are young.
learning programming language is like learning foreign language.

Answer 3

Why?
Many reasons.
But, I would say it helps to sharpen thinking very well.

Age?
System.out.println("<=7");

^^-^^

Answer 4

Everything is technological now. Coding has become the life itself. This is why children have to learn coding.and I started at 10.

Answer 5

learning to code would be like anything, show them it at any age and see if they are interested.
if they aren't, try again a little later with something simpler or in a way related to something they are interested in.. or show them how programming can solve an issue they have at the moment

Answer 6

I'd rather they learn how to be financially literate before coding. But that's just me. And they should start before entering a university.

If they can be financially independent then by all means kids can learn whatever they want. I just don't want to be the parent with a grown man still living in my basement. tru story.

Answer 7

Yes kids should cause it gives us the power to create i am saying this so kids will nit think coding is boring or hard plz me too i am a kid so you can start coding at any age you just need to focus and have fun.
