Why to study programming? Programming becomes the most important skill in 21 st centaury It is a skill and you can master it thought repetitions Programs at different levels of complexity are found everywhere. We trust programs to fly aircrafts, to do medical diagnosis and to trade stocks on a stock market. Each field has it own specialization; nevertheless the foundation of programming remains the same in any field. 8
