When I get older, I want to be a computer programmer. I have no idea what I’d want to specialize in but I’d use it to express my creativity. Back in 5th grade, I used to be good at programming as it was my main hobby and I made multiple programs, including games and pointless applications. The world inside computers interests me because I have been a creative person my whole life, and there are unlimited things you can do with a computer. This could be a way to get my ideas out that I have had stored in my brain for the longest time. Also, if I did do this when I got older it would be a balance of business and a hobby. Even though it is your ideas, you still must make what people want you to make, which can be hard. It’s not just something I have to go to school for, I can start learning it now.
The person I interviewed was Matt Peck. He started learning how to program by going to a one-day seminar at a local community college. He works for Lara Consulting Group, as said in the interview. This company specializes in making websites for companies that need them. The company will give Lara the idea for their website, and they will make it. The company can update their website at any time. They are based out of Seattle, Washington. They made the website for the company who makes the New Year’s Eve ball in New York City.

Matt got into the computer industry making websites because he thought that it was the future of communication, and he thought that everyone would be using it in the future, and he was correct. He specializes in HTML, JavaScript, and UNIX, which are all different types of computer languages that run the programs you use every day. A typical day was just working the whole day. A couple of breaks here and there, but overall, a lot of work.
Math is used in computer programming many ways, and there is more geometry incorporated into just the aspect of making websites than anything else. You must understand coordinates because when you’re making websites, in this case, you must understand how to equally proportion everything and where to place everything. One small mistake would ruin the whole program in its entirety. When working on making websites, there is a lot of work with arrays and building formulas. There’s also a lot of binary code, consisting of 0s and 1s, which could be hard to wrap your mind around. All this math goes into one type of computer programming. There are many other occupations in this industry, and they all have different types of math incorporated into designing the programs.
I am not that experienced in this topic at this moment, but I plan to learn about it more in the future. There is a whole world of resources online, and with more tech spots opening in the industry, kids are encouraged to learn about programming more and more. I learned that you don’t have to specialize in just one thing. There are many types of jobs in the industry in the industry from web design all the way to making video games, but this is a hard job. You need many years of training or experience to become a pro. Companies like Facebook and Google didn’t blow up overnight! With all this said, I’ll try to learn more about it this summer, and learn a new hobby while I’m at it.
