' I think everybody in the country should learn how to program a computer ,should learn a computer language , because it teaches you how to think.’
- Steve Jobs
Fun Fact : Steve did not wrote a single line of code in Apple but he understood the power of it .
Logic
It may be because Steve also knew the value and power of logical thinking. Programming is as important as learning Mathematics as both of these help you in building logical thinking which ultimately helps you to think better , analyse better, understand the mechanism of any simple or complex process in a better way. In fact if you take a closer look at any subject which is created by humans have logic in their very foundations and today the very pure form of logic can be made on a 12x10 inch computer screen .
Art of Problem Solving
If there is any skill that has remained and will remain a top priority for decades in any job of any field,it is the skill of Problem Solving .To become a better problem solver and resolve the complexities that are occurring in any system is the main priority of any business or country and Programming helps you to build that ability to do it. When you learn to program you deal with many things like creating something ,optimizing it ,building an algorithm, making the machines think and work the way you want!
In programming, not only you understand how the system works ,you can build the system and make it work according to your own will .
Building the Future
It hasn't been much time since the “ IT boom “ and an integral part of future of the human race depends on the technology we are developing in the field of computer science . So if you learn programming you are getting a chance to contribute and shape the world according to your will because You can practically make anything: games,websites ,Web Application,Mobile apps, embedded systems etc that influences the life of people around us. From the brush you use in the morning to the car you drive in the evening is designed and made using the softwares. From the games you play to the satellites that provide you interstellar information are all controlled by software which are made by people who are no smarter than you .
So you should not ask what can be achieved with programming but you should ask what you can’t .
