Think In Code: An Introduction to Code

By Marcus J. Carey

By the time my son was 16 years old he had already coded and published five apps to the Apple App Store. That same year he had accepted a job to work for one of the biggest companies in cybersecurity as a software engineer.

At 16, my son had been dabbling in code and hacking phones for years.I taught my son how to code when he was 11 years old. Learning to code is something that many children can do at a proficient level if given the opportunity. Many parents ask me, "How were you able to get your son to code at that age?".

After much thinking I know the answer is you have to provide children something that interests them and teach them how to "think in code".There is a saying that you never understand someone until you walk a mile in their shoes. When learning how to build technology you have to take the same approach. I believe you have to walk a mile in the technology's shoes.

I wrote this so anyone can pick it up and quickly understand how code works. This book teaches anyone how to "think in code" so they can go on to build anything their imagination can come up with.
