There are many reasons an individual may want to code. For me, I wanted to code because I enjoy problem solving and helping others. As far as problem solving goes, there is never a shortage of problems and new challenges when it comes to Computer Science. It is the greatest feeling after writing a good quality piece of code and watching another benefit from it. Picture this… you work hours and hours on a program that you are excited to create and that in the near future will finally see the day of light. You imagine it’s potential, you program it in such a way that it is “bug free” <– (this never happens), code quality is great and performance is top of the line. Then… the day comes when you release your baby into the wild so others may benefit from it’s greatness. It is scary but exciting. You hope your baby plays well with others. Success! you can now sleep comfortably and dream up another one of your babies that will better the world!
