Introduction To Programming

The process of designing, writing,testing , debugging, and maintaining the source code of computer programs.
Programming is an art in software engineering and one needs to be a good programmer rather than being just a programmer because there are many code written by a programmer which can solve the purpose but only few are there which can solve the purpose effectively and efficiently. Effective programs are those which can solve the purpose or a given problem and efficient programs are those which can solve the purpose or a given problem as fast as possible with minimum needs of resources.

A good programming skills needs following points to remember
1. Program should be effective.
2. Program should be efficient.
3. Program should be reliable.
4. Program should be robust.
5. program should be easy to maintain.

In software engineering programmers bad programming may increase the (LOC) lines of code of a program to increase the cost of the product but can never ever increase the quality of the software product.

According to Harlan Mills "Programming is similar to a game of golf.  The point is not getting the ball in the hole but how many strokes it takes."

So one should try to be good programmer rather than being just a programmer

This blog will focus on programming concept and many aspects of programming.
