Top 5 things you should do while joining your first year of computer science engineering.

 Top 5 things you should do while joining your first year of computer science engineering

Hi, I hope you all are doing well. Welcome to my first blog here i'm going to explain the top 5 thing that you should do if you are going to join your first year as a computer science engineer.
Yes in your first year, your college will give you one of the programming language to learn most probably it will be C but i suggest you to be self taught with object oriented  language like python,java,javascript,c++.
As soon as you start your first day as a computer science engineer student here are the thing that you should do:

1.Choose one language

From day 1 of your college choose one language whatever language it may be example you can choose python,java,javascript etc just give it a try with any language and stick to it. Don't wait everything for your college to teach you, you learn more if you teach yourself

2.Choose one domain

So after choosing a programming a language now it time for you to choose your domain that you are more interested like what do you want to work with like web development,app development,game development etc but i suggest you to start with web development because it is easy if you really put out the work.

3.Build a project

So now you have learn a language, you have a domain or a field that you are interested so now it time to build a project because you will never learn anything without building anything from the thing that you have learn, and you have to remember that never consider yourself that you know a particular language unless you have build a project with what you have learn.

4.Learn data structure and algorithm

Here come data structure and algorithm i'm not going to say that it is not important, but it will help you get a job because the company will hired you based on your coding skill in which you will implement the data structure and algorithm to make the code more efficient most of the question while the company is recrutting will come from data structure and algorithm so make sure that you learn  the fundamental like stack,queue,linked list and so on.

5.Practise hackerrank,hackerearth problem

So to make your coding skill at the top or to increase your thinking ability and also to make your brain think logically here you have to practice coding from different online platform like hackerrank, hacker-earth,code-chef. All this thing you have to do is just to exercise your brain with coding so that you will understand the language in depth.

Conclusion

Some of you might think that you don't have time for all of this because you have a curriculum to complete but trust me you have plenty of time while you are in first year because in first year you will study again with your 10+2 course so give more important to your branch (computer science) by doing all the top 5 thing that i have mention above will make you have a skill which you can apply in your job.
You might ask me "what i should do in  my second,third year?" Here is an answer, after you complete your first year you already have a domain or field so it's up to you to explore more about other domain or field or you can specialize about the domain that you already learn.
If you are not sure about programming language i highly suggest you take a Harvard cs50 intro to computer science.
Thank You. I will appreciate it if you correct me and i highly encourage you to give me suggestion and feedback.

Python automation with selenium.

Automate with selenium In this blog we are going to see how to automate some task with selenium. Selenium is an opensource framework which is used for testing web application by scrapping into the web site. To apply selenium in python for testing an application we need to follow some step. So in these this blog we are going to explain how to use selenium to go to the google and search for shotwithcode blog and read the blog. Step1: using pip in python we have to install selenium "pip install selenium" Step2: We need a web driver in which it will run the browser and tell the browser what to do. So if we use chrome we need to download chrome driver else if we use other browser then we need to download the web driver for that browser You can download the Chrome web driver here https://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads Remember to download the chrome driver related to the chrome version we have Step3:After download the driver extract the file and save into a location which is e...

Python programe to find the factorial of a number

 Python program to find the factorial of a number Factorial number of a number is a product from 1 to the number which is from 1 to n where n is the number Example : factorial of 5 = 1*2*3*4*5 = 120 Code: #function to find factorial number def facto(n):     factorial = 1     for i in range(1,n+1):         factorial = factorial * i     return factorial #Take the input from the user and store in n n = int(input()) if n == 0: #factorial of 0 is always 1     print(1) else:     print(facto(n)) #other than 0 we have to find the factorial number by calling the function Input : 5 Output : 120 There is another method to find factorial number using recursion. Feel free to check the code in a code editor and try it out and also i am welcome to any suggestion. Here is the previous post : https://shotwithcode.blogspot.com/2020/12/python-automation-with-sele...

Why two factor authentication is very important?

Why two factor authentication is very important? Here is why two factor authentication is so much important to all of us, first i will start off with the meaning of two authentication What is a two factor authentication? Two factor authentication referred to us a two step of verification, Most of the user use one factor authentication to login to their social media or to any platform in the internet which has an authentication. So using a two factor authentication is where after giving the user name and password we also have to give a token or an OTP or any other details to verify that it was us who login into the platform. Example:   Suppose you sign-in into google with email if you use two factor authentication after you give the email and password while submitting the information google will send an OTP to your mobile phone number so that you can enter the OTP into the system, so if the OTP match then only the google will accept you login into google. So i hope by now you have a...
