Kiran Kumar’s Answer
Take small steps. Start learning any programming language and start Coding !
Do not think that coding is too difficult. Once you know all basic ideas and functions, it will seem to be too easy.
But don’t think either that is too easy and you will learn it after some-days… Making mistakes is not a ‘crime’ but procrastination is..
While explaining code, the concepts will be more clearer.
Use Google. In today’s case if you know ‘what to do ?’ - your good problem-solving skills; Google can tell you ‘How to do ?’
Don’t get desperate too early. At first, you might not be able to solve all problems, but have faith in yourself. Learn continuously.
Code as much as possible… practice is the key…
Plan before coding
Choose a programming language that suits you. For general purposes, Python is best option. You should learn C/C++ as well, it will give you deep inside of how to code.
Help others On coding

Guisselle’s Answer
Once you are in high school, you will know whether coding is for you or not. You must love spending many hours in front of the computer, you must love learning, and know that what you learned yesterday might not be good for tomorrow; however the more you know the easier it gets. I learned the most when I got my Associate Degree.
PERSEVERANCE and FOCUS are key.
Choose computer science classes in High School
Once in college, talk to a counselor about what your goals are, and make sure to follow all his advise
Sign up for University, and while getting your bachelor, work part-time somewhere where they use the type of software you want to become an expert at
Focus on learning one coding language at a time, understand it 100%, and finish it before moving on to another language.
PERSEVERANCE and FOCUS are key.
