My brother wants to become a programmer. Is it a good idea?

Question

My brother is a security worker. He has only high school diploma (he finished school called gimnazija in Serbia which prepares for university). He failed to finish maths studies where he was learning programming.

Answer 1

Why did he not finish mathematics?

I think a good math background is important for programming in technical areas.

If he doesn't like math or is not good at it, then I think programming is not a good idea.

Answer 2

Mathematics studies were hard for him.

Answer 3

Great job that pays very well here.

But without aNY DIPLOMA, IT WOULD BE HARD TO FIND WORK.

sEE IF YOU HAVE ANY TRADE SCHOOLS AROUND THERE. i KNOW THERE ARE A LOT OF THEM ARO

UND.

Answer 4

My brother knows that programmers are well paid everywhere. He heard and read that some programmers worked without university education. I think that programmers need to learn much to be good experts.

Answer 5

That they do! Good luck!

I loved doing it when I worked for Slitherine!

Answer 6

I'm using a ChatGPT Plus subscription to create some complex codes and it works most of the time. The free version works well too but might produce some errors.

If your brother wants to produce coding for his works then he can try the free version of ChatGPT and if there are any errors in the code, you can ask what's wrong with the code to Google bard and Bard can explain it better than ChatGPT and then you can give that details again to ChatGPT for it to fix the problem.

However, the ChatGPT free version might still produce codes with errors.

Even if you don't need the coding knowledge, you still need logical thinking about what your code has to do and how it has to do it...
