Computer programming is an exciting and a highly rewarding process of creating digital robots called computer programs. These programs are typically designed to fulfill certain business tasks or functionality. There is no agreement on whether to consider this profession an engineering discipline or an art. Some believe that programming requires advanced knowledge of mathematics and that computer programmers must be licensed. The question "Do I need to know mathematics to become a programmer" is asked by many who consider this career. The answer is very simple, you don’t. You just don’t need it unless you are in a specific math prevailing area such as mathematical modeling or statistics. However, your success in programming is largely dependent on your ability to develop abstract thinking. But that does not come by itself and is something that you can develop gradually. If you decide to become a programmer then you do it at a great time. Because now you can learn and use .NET as a programming technology. I can tell you a lot about how great .NET is compared with Microsoft programming platform of the early 90-s but I hope you'll just believe me. Most importantly, you can jump-start your new career by enrolling in my online classes, where you can learn how to write powerful programs and web sites like this one and much more.
Souleiman Valiev. Online classes offer live, instructor-led interactive learning with full video and audio support. This means you can see what I am talking about and hear a detailed explanation of the topic discussed and ask questions. It's a great way to accelerate your career as you can attend any class simply from your home. All you need is a PC and the Internet. Note that each training session consists of two academic hours and is focused on a practical programming task and many related practice exercises and programming solution examples. All classes are led by Souleiman Valiev, Ph.D. Associate Professor, and are based on his .NET books. There are no pre-requisites for all beginning level C# and Visual Basic .NET classes. You don't need to have any previous programming experience to take any beginning level classes. To practice and create lab projects that are assigned for each main topic, you need to have any version of Visual Studio 2005, 2008 or 2010. For this purpose you can even use any free beta versions of a Visual Studio. See a link to download a VS 2010 Beta in Useful Resources section. Read Disclaimer
