(Ebook) Becoming A Programmer: A Beginner’s Guide by Paul Mabry

Computer Programming is an incredibly useful undertaking but it can be a daunting task to learn. This book revolutionizes this process and gives the beginning programmer the necessary but often overlooked foundation needed to learn programming. Becoming A Programming provides the necessary and essential background information and concepts which makes learning to program quick and easy without all the needless technical mumbo jumbo normally found in many of the other ”Learn Computer Programming” books.
As you may be aware, if you have been searching for books on learning computer programming, for the most part programming books are incredibly similar to one another. The typical learn programming book usually starts with very little background material and they jump right into the famous “Hello World” code as if all programming languages were created with this idea in mind.
This book “Becoming a Programmer” was written with the intent to go another direction, to introduce the programming student to the ideas and concepts of computer science, which are used by programming language designers to create computer programming languages in the first place. It is my belief having this crucial knowledge in place before jumping into writing code is the critical piece missing from most of the current methods and material used to teach computer programming.
The idea one can learn programming in 24 Hours is absurd and misleading. It takes a considerable effort and an investment in time and hard work to become a competent computer programmer. This book works under the assumption the reader is willing to make this necessary investment and gives the reader a head start by presenting the essential and fundamental computer science concepts which make computer programming possible in the first place. Make no mistake about it, programming students struggle needlessly without this important information contained within "Becoming A Programmer" Don’t struggle and waste time learning to program without this book!
