Twenty years ago, few people could predict that the near future industries would be dominated by technology.

I learnt how to code as an adult, in fact as a Masters degree student. I have a background in Electrical/Electronics Engineering and my first attempt at coding was in 2nd year at the University of Port Harcourt. We were taught Fortran 77 and I failed it. I carried the course over and managed to get a D in 3rd year.
