There are a variety of coding languages, each designed with precise things in mind. From computer to website, from a smartphone app to tablet, video game, and even washing machine, the entire digital world relies on code to work. Also, coders are the architects, engineers, and builders of the digital age; they soon uphold a weightage. Coding isn’t just a skill but a complete way of thinking that seasons our reasoning, which needs to be learnt first by teachers and then transmitted to students.
