(off topic) - I am going into Computer Programming. Any tips?

posted 2 years ago by winn 2 years ago by winn +40 / -0

I may be dating myself but, yours truly is going back to school. I know there are some savvy frens on here, so I wanted to see if I could get any heads-up tips that would make this process go more smoothly! Anything small or large would be appreciated; I barely know the first things about coding. Thanks for any input!

There's big money in RPA, robotic process automation.

A lot of it is low-code or no-code.

I'd start there if I were you.

I mean, start now. Today.

Two big platforms: UiPath and Power Platform (Microsoft). MSFT isn't really the biggest player. But they both have free online training. Thirty-three hours of free training and you pay for the exam (under $200).

Now the reason I think it will be important: people are dying. And there's a recession, so companies will have to scale back.

They will need to rely on automation more than ever.

They also have a full developer course for 80 hours. All free online. Just pay for the exam.

What is robotic process automation?

Robotic process automation (RPA) is a software technology that makes it easy to build, deploy, and manage software robots that emulate humans actions interacting with digital systems and software. Just like people, software robots can do things like understand what’s on a screen, complete the right keystrokes, navigate systems, identify and extract data, and perform a wide range of defined actions. But software robots can do it faster and more consistently than people, without the need to get up and stretch or take a coffee break.
