Everything you do online when you turn on your smart TV, when you use a car GPS navigator, phone, play a game on a tablet, console or PC, all programmed by a group of people. All these ones and zeros are designed by those who have learned to code, and with the help of this book you can also learn how to start the path to the profession of a programmer.

But first, let's start with a good foundation.
