10 of the best trustworthy sites for learning CODING that you may not know

In today’s digital world, coding has become so popular that it can change one’s life. We have composed 10 of the best trustworthy sites to learn coding. You can take an example of coders who have sold their code to multi-nationals and became millionaires in months.

Initially coding can be tough for a beginner. A person needs to understand the concept of computer science and get used to tools that help in developing the code. Many people give up before starting, but it doesn’t have to be in that manner.

The best way to learn code is with project based approach. It will give you new ideas, keep you motivated and most importantly your retention of code will be increased.

So, before you start coding lesson, think of a small project in your mind. Below mentioned are the best resources for getting started with coding

This is the most popular and recognized resource for learning code. Join the community of codecademy and you can choose from courses grouped into eight tracks: APIs, Ruby, Python, JavaScript, jQuery, PHP, web fundamentals, or combine languages into projects.

Codingbat :

If you have Python and Java problems then no frills just the exercises. It is probably better for someone with a little bit of background (meaning you know what a function/parameter is and can use The Google to figure out/find grammar/functions you need).
