My hobbies since childhood.

Hi, Pankaj here 👋

                         This is somewhat an unsual article, as most of the things I will be mentioning here which I used to I do as a child may surprise a few of you. So let's get started my friends😉.

                         Right from my childhood, I was an very curious boy from a technical point of view. You ask how much curious? Guess what, when I was in KG A, I used to open my toys with a screwdriver to know the mechanism inside which makes the toy train move. In fact, while I was doing so one day trying to disassemble the coil spring motor, the coil spring inside almost cut through my index finger. I still have the scar. As time went by my interest in these kinds of stuff grew tremendously.

                         By the time I reached 3rd standard, I found myself deeply engrossed in electric motors and mechanical contraptions, there was not even a single device or appliance in our house which I didn't dismantle, when my parents were out. I would dismantle our washing machine, mixer grinder, TV, DVD player etc. My parents were always in constant fear that someday I would electrocute myself, as I used to play with electricity a lot, you ask how? In order to know how the wire inside a bulb glow, I used to take small strands of copper wire and pass 220AC through that and this resulted in the creation of a shockwave as high current passes and the strand explode. I felt the shock wave created in the process on my face many times. Not only that I used to pass 220AC through 12DC motor harvested from toys and other household electrical appliances, what I was trying to do is understanding how things work by experimentation and reverse-engineering what we call it today. Give it a try sometimes 😉.

                         The knowledge I gained from experimenting was enough for me to make my first working electric toy motor by the time I was in 5th standard after years of destruction and spending my pocket money on buying batteries. I myself made the coiling of the motor. Remember that there was no Youtube nor I had any access to the internet back then.

                         This way more years went by and I continued to do things like melting glass in order to make optical fibres out of it, but I had no luck doing so as the temperature required was very high.

This was a working engine model I started making when I was in 7th standard, This engine runs on compressed air.

                         By the time I reached 11th standard, my interest began to grow regarding computers and software as it was in this year when I got my first personal computer. I began to teach myself programming languages like C. One day I asked one of my teachers how to program a robot using C, as I have read somewhere that C can be used to program a robot, but as I expected he didn't have the slightest clue how to do that, he only knew that we can use C on the computer to create programs. I kept searching on the internet to find out what I was looking for was nothing but embedded C. So I started learning that on my own, as always my experimenting and like that I was able to create my own microcontroller circuits and program them as well. For those of you who don't know what a microcontroller is, It is just like the CPU inside your computer but for specific tasks and they are programmed using embedded C.
                         This is what embedded C look like, but unlike C, here you need to have knowledge of the microcontroller architecture for which you are trying to create a program.

                         During my engineering I learned a lot of things, a lot of programming languages like PHP, Python etc. and embedded electronics, sensor (I implemented my very own 9DOF accelerometer+gyro+magnetometer sensor) to track motion in 3d space using sensor fusion)and my I began to dedicate myself into developing software programs for fun and for freelancing as well. While I was pursuing my engineering degree, I also created my very own washing machine, entirely from scratch (all the electronic circuit boards + software I coded myself.) which was not a big deal though.

                         Now coding is my mode of income, though I studied Mechanical engineer, I was interest in many aspects of engineering. It may sound to you like I am bragging about myself but I have no such intentions, Frankly speaking, I was both a better coder and electronics experts than most of my friends who were in that field, they always come to me to solve problems based on software and electronics, though I was a mechanical engineer, so funny.😂 But this helped me a lot to make myself better day by day.

                         Without stretching this article further, I just want to say one thing to all my friends

                         I also like exercising, reading some books in free time, walking and listening music

                         With this I am ending this article, though I have a lot more things to share with you guys, which I will in some another post and as always, Thanks for reading.

Welcome to Steem @pankajborah.

Do read A thumb rule for steemit minnows - 50:100:200:25 for starter tips.

Spend time reading Steem Blue Paper to know how Steem blockchain works and if you still have any queries ask them on our Ask me anything about Steemit post and we will try to answer that.

All the Best!!!

@pankajborah Hey bro can you tell which Programming languages easy to learn for beginner???

It may sound cliche but I would suggest you to start with C language. The reason I still suggesting you to go for C because it will step up your fundaments of programming as for being a good programmer your fundamentals must be strong. If you learn C, I can guarantee you that all other languages will be a cake walk. But don't get too much attached with C even if you fall in love with it, just go through all the fundamental concepts, and move on to some other language like python, javascript, PHP which will be more useful to you in a day to day life. If you want to go for embedded programming (ones that are used to program microcontrollers you still need embedded C for that) then you will require C though. C is the mother of all modern computer language.

Important language to learn - Python and Javascript.

Gave you my upvote , it's a little but I hope one day will give you bigger ones
OK. Improving on Beautifu

keep it your good work And please do it same...2 steps vote + flw me I will flw you back👷

Hey this post makes a lot of sense.

Thanks @nnamdit, I am glad you liked it.👍💚

I'm also a programmer.. would u like to learn Java..or u know already?

Great @luckys, I know, but personally I don't like Java that much, my favourite is python.

Suggest the most important programming language to meet the industry need

Posted using Partiko Android

it depends on what you want to achieve, but if you are looking for the all-rounder than I would say it's python. You can do almost anything with python. It like a magic wand.

So the most important programming language to meet the industry need is python.

I think your childhood gone awsome

Yeah, really awesome.
