Codementor: How I learned Python Programming

Kovid Raj Panthy, The Youngest Programmer of Nepal is an algorithm-ist, programmer, artificial intelligence developer, key-note speaker, blogger, youtuber and Glocal's 20under20. I have knowledge at languages like, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, C, C++, Python in which my expertise is on Python. I have work experiences on Android App Development and Computer Software Development too.

Currently I am running a YouTube channel named Coder Kovid in which I provide programming knowledge on programming. I am an owner of Techsamaj which is a tech forum based on Nepal. My main motive is to contribute to society with the use of computer technology.

Why I wanted to learn Python

My computer science teacher suggested me to learn python programming. But as I was learning Ruby on Rails those days, I ignored him. But after 2-3 days I came to know that YouTube was also made up of Python itself. And then I thought that Python would gain a great market in coming days. And that went true. My prediction was right because, Python programming's popularity is increasing day by day.

How I approached learning Python

I started learning Python Programming from the resources that I had with me. I looked for different YouTube videos. Signed up for different programs. I learnt it for free. I got great resources for free on web. So, I started researching on my own and no one was there to help me. That was very tough to learn on your own without a mentor.

Challenges I faced

In the beginning my parents didn't supported me. They used to tell me to just study the course books. But I was very stubborn so I never stopped growing my passion. Later, my parents understood and started supporting me.

Key takeaways

I have learned that don't focus on making money, just focus on creating value.

Tips and advice

I want to give you an advice that no one is perfect but if you keep on following your passion and you don't let it to die then obviously you will make it big someday.

So, I wanted to help people. Because I don't want people to suffer like me so I started my YouTube channel called Coder Kovid. ```
