😎 Want to know the secret language of computers? This week, I dove into the world of coding and discovered the magic behind the scenes. As I learned, source code is the set of instructions we write in plain text, without any fancy formatting. That's why we use a special tool called an Integrated Development Environment (IDE), which is like a smart editor designed specifically for coding. At first, source code can look ✍ a bit messy, ✍ with lines of code, ✍ spaces, and a mix of words, ✍ numbers, and symbols. But it's all part of the plan. This code needs to be translated into a language that computers understand, known as machine code - a secret language for the computer's brain, the processor. 💃 💃 One of the most exciting moments for me was when I finally got to "run" my code on Kotlin Playground. I learned that running the code is actually executing it. The computer takes our human-readable instructions and converts them into machine code through a process called compiling. It's like an assembly line that transforms our code into something the computer can execute. It's been a fascinating journey to see how our simple lines of text come to life and make things happen on the screen! Watch the clip to understand more about the source code and compilation process. A special thanks to Dr. ‘Bosun Tijani, Somto Akujuruobi and 3MTT Nigeria for their support and guidance. #myweeklylearningjourney #3mttanambra #3mttnigeria #softwaredevelopment
