Q: When did your interest in programming languages arise? How did you fall in love with it?<\/h3>\n

I have been in love with computers and programming ever since my Kindergarten days. I used to watch my dad programming on his laptop, and at 5 years old, simple things like the screen changing color as he typed really intrigued me, and I was curious as to what went into the \u201cgadget\u201d that made it behave like that. I really wanted to go behind the scenes to find out what was making this happen. As he fed my curiosity, and gave me the answers to my questions, I was able to pick it up from there.<\/p>\n

Q: What programming languages are known to you? Tell us about your YouTube channel Tanmay teaches?<\/h3>\n

Well, the language you choose to program in really depends on which device you want to program, and what the purpose is. Nevertheless, I\u2019d like to mention that I love to program in languages like Swift, C, Java, Python, Ruby, Node.js, Objective-C, Visual Basic, and more. I am very passionate about sharing my knowledge, and therefore, I have a YouTube Channel, called Tanmay Teaches <\/a>, wherein I love to teach about subjects like AI, Cognitive and Machine Learning, Watson, Algorithms, Math, and Science.<\/p>\n
