Let’s have a further understanding of the process of recruitment in this field.
If you want to be a software engineer, developer or programmer, you should know any one of these languages such as C++, Linux, C, java, java/J2EE. These courses are notonly beneficial for students, but also for working people.
If you are working in an IT firm, and wish for promotion, these courses can do a lot for you. If you are certified in C, java, C++, SQL etc. you can get a definite increment in your salary from 6% to 20%. We will provide you with basic and advance courses.So let’s get started with the basic course, so that people who are willing to learn programming without any previous knowledge can aboard too.
As you know, today, we are going to learn HTML5 and CSS3 fundamentals.This content has been created by our partner Microsoft. We have Bob Taborfrom Microsoft who is an expert in HTML and CSS with us, he is going to talk about everything, you need to knowabout HTML5 and CSS3. In this episode, we will cover Series introduction and creatinga HTML5 web page.
But, before we start, you need to have a computer system with a 64 bit processor. If you have a computer with 32 bit processor, that is also fine, but just in case, if a particular programme is of 64 bit, it would not work on a 32 bit computer system
To check which type of processor your computer has, you can use the system information utility. Search for either system information or msinfo32 from the start menu.
Under system summary, you’ll see your type of system listed next to system type. If you see x64-based PC, you have a 64 bit processor. If you see x86 based PC, you have a 32 bit processor. Other required tools are windows notepad and any web browser such as internet explorer, which need to be installed on your computer system. In this video, we will build entire web page and learn how to code. (Screen capture).
