                               WHAT IS CODING?

                     Coding  or programming  is the process  of
                     creating codes to instruct a computer to perform

                     a specific task. There can be more than one way
                     to solve the problem; similarly, there are many
                     ways to write code for the same task.

                                                Let see an example:
                                                When you play video on your smartphone. Your smartphone will act

                                                as a computer which needs to be instructed (in this instructions will be
                                                given by the application which plays the video) at each and every step
                                                on what to be done. The application playing the video provides this
                                                instruction via programming language.

                                                                                                          PURE
                           The first programmer or the first person to write our modern understanding of
                           a program was Ada Lovelace.                                                     FACT

                               WHAT IS A PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE?

                     Language is the primary means of communication for all human interactions. In the same way,
                     to interact with computers, you need a language which the computer understands and is called
                     a programming language.

                     To communicate  with computer,  programmers  use computer  language  which is known as
                     programming language. So, programming language can be defined as a set of instructions which
                     are written in any specific computer language to perform a set of activities.
