Why you should learn to code?

“I think everybody in this country should learn how to program a computer because it teaches you how to think. I view computer science as a liberal art.” - Steve Jobs



Computers are everywhere, the one with which you are reading this, the one I am using to write. Literally, they are all around us. And It's so fascinating that we as humans are so much integrated with them in our daily life.
You might have thought once in while that how is the app working, or while playing a game you might have wondered what's working behind the game and how it was built. Well, the answer is that someone had coded that game or app. But it's just one way to look at coding. There are plenty of others. Here are some of the reasons for you, yes you even if you are from a non-technical background to learn to code.

1. It can help you to Think in new ways
Learning to code won’t just give you technical knowledge it will also give you a new way to approach your work. Learning to program also makes your attention to detail. After all, when a single misplaced hyphen or missing semi-colon can mess up your entire code, you become quite skilled at checking your work.

2. It develops problem-solving skills
Coding helps you to break up a problem into a series of smaller steps and then logically create a program that solves them. This same approach can be applied to virtually every problem in life.
It can also help you accomplish your entrepreneurial ideas.

3. It can help you make good money
Even if you don't want to be a software engineer, coding can really help you in gaining a huge amount of money by working part-time for a start-up or you can do freelancing(start earning from today). Even if you're just looking to make a little extra money for retirement or vacation, coding can be quite lucrative.

4. It may be your new hobby
Even if you don't want to do anything yet you should learn to code because who knows it may become a new hobby of yours. For instance, by learning to code you can create beautiful websites on your own.
