Individual programming languages like HTML, Python, and Ruby can be categorized into different types of coding languages.
Getting clear on the different types of programming languages will improve your overall understanding of programming and computers.
In this post, I’m going to explain these different types of coding languages and their use cases. But first, let’s make sure we’re on the same page about what a programming language actually is.
Algorithms are at the very core of successful and efficient development. You’ll use them as you learn to code, you’ll be asked about them in technical interviews, and they’ll likely be part of your day-to-day development work.
Learning common algorithms individually is helpful, but what’s even better is getting used to algorithmic thinking. If you can train your brain to understand and follow algorithmic logic, writing your own algorithms will become much more intuitive.
Here to explain algorithmic thinking and how to work through problems with this method is Ethan Urie of Learn to Be a Developer.

Go, sometimes referred to as Golang, is a statically typed, compiled programming language designed at Google in 2007.
It makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient systems, and is modeled after C. You may have seen its mascot before: the Go gopher.
According to Hired’s 2022 State of Software Engineers report, Go programming has been the #1 most in-demand software engineering skill for two years in a row.
Cyberattacks are happening all the time and there’s a shortage of people with cybersecurity skills. Now, more than ever, we need skilled workers starting cybersecurity careers.
According to the ISC Cybersecurity Workforce Study, the number of professionals in cyber security jobs would need to increase by 65% to meet the growing demands of today’s businesses.
If you’re at all interested in working in this field, this is a great time to learn how to get started in cybersecurity.
Buying tech gifts for a programmer, computer engineer, or other sub-category of “computer geek,” can feel overwhelming. When you’re not in the industry yourself, how do you know which coding gifts to buy? 🤔
There are so many options under the umbrella of awesome computer science gifts! But that only makes it harder to narrow it down and pick the right programmer gifts for tech lovers in your life!)
That’s why I created this roundup of top coding gifts to make it a little easier to find the best gifts for coders of all ages,
