Programming (Old version)

This is the old version of the Programming resource recreated talking about programming when I was still in school. In school I was stressed and these are the writings of being not done school. Needs to be recreated. FAQ done.

This is my experience trying to do computer programming. I wanted to program since I was in grade 7 at 12 years old. I finally finished a 2-year Computer Programming diploma at my local hometown college (April 2023) Durham College. I naturally only like programming 40% of the time so these writings are like progression storyline of me trying (struggling) to get this skill and use it.

This page will host information about what I know about programming so far.

I hope by explaining my journey back into trying to program when I am old will help others try to get into this field for work and to satisfy their passion.
