Is it worth learning to code in 2021?
It’s a long journey. You’ll explore different programming languages, get to grips with new technologies and connect with a huge worldwide community. It’s not always easy and it demands continuous learning and development. But it’s definitely worth it.
Is Ada the best programming language?
Ada is a high-level type of object-oriented programming language. It is imperative, structured, and statically typed. It’s extremely efficient, reliable, and is perfect for large, long-lived applications. And it’s been around for a while.
Is coding still a valuable skill?
As coding is a highly valued skill at the moment, many companies are willing to outsource the work. This means skilled coders have the ability to create their own schedule (and charge a nice rate for it at the same time).
Why did you learn Ada first?
Learning Ada first had one major advantage: no one uses Ada, so I was forced to learn another language before doing anything else, and thereby gain perspective. One of the worst problems that beginning programmers can have is the belief that the way things are done in their first language is just The Way Things Are Done.
How hard is it to learn Ada programming?
The hard part is learning how to model complex real world problems into something that makes sense in the very limited scope of a programming language. With its strong type system, tasking model, generics and solid tools for real-time and concurrent programming Ada is ideally suited to this job.
Is Adada worth it?
Ada is definitively worth it. In addition to 2 things written by Shark8 one has to add that almost all languages are focusing on the easiness of writing instead of reading (and most often you are going to write once and read many times).
Is Adada a good language to learn?
Ada is for software engineering. As darkestkhan said, it is not a “hack and hope for the best” language. The advice of Paul Stansifer is very good: Learn several languages. Make sure you have a plenty of tools at your disposal – don’t limit yourself to just one language.
