How I think now - first day in the grind ! - 1

Hello friends, 

This blog I am using it to document my journey in the computer world. I used to be a Sommelier, when I started getting into wines - I started a mother blog about wine and beverages hoping to document everything beverage related there which now I am switching to computer and allies. I did spent almost 10 years in hospitality with special interests in wine and beverages of all kinds, but I no longer anticipate to be active in the wine world. 

‘Documentingcybersecurity.blogspot.com’ officially is a documentation blog of everything I learn about computer, technology, cybersecurity. I would have really enjoyed reading about the evolution later in my life whenever I had started anything new, only if I had taken the time to document the whole process. But, now I am doing it with my computer education because I am a newbie at present. I had spent considerable time in my life trying to acquire atleast some knowledge almost about everything which have impacted my life besides computers/technologies, because I had regarded this area as something I would never need to venture into- so I was happy with the basics I learned by just being in the flow - like watching the advertisements in the T.V without intending to watch them - if you know what I mean. Getting into documentation mode now - I wondered whole day trying to figure out what would be the best approach for me to take if I want to get the most out of my cybersecurity and ethical hacking educational journey. I could tell any front of the house students in hospitality what they are getting into and how they could contribute to the highest level; I am looking for similar kind of guidance in the field of information technology. 

I did some research about programming languages which incuded googling and watching few youtube videos. I know for the first time that there are many programming languages and in sort of rough hierarchy starting from something close to the C.P.U and upwards are -Assembly, C, C++, C#, Java, Swift, PHP, Javascript, Phython, Ruby. And there is also GO now, developed by google. C programming is the fundamental and the oldest language developed Circa 1972. Python is one of the most versatile and widely used. Also, there is Java which is somehow like a combination of C and C++ , also very popular. Javascript is also hot - used extensively in webdesignings. After gathering the basic informations of all these programming languages - I opt to start my journey by learning C language on my own using the resources I will be finding in the internet. This is something I am doing on my own in-addition to what I would be learning in college- which has technically started last week but I havent been to college because of COVID -19 pandemic.

Getting started - 2

I wanted to start with C programming language but my class has started. Our teacher has told me that we will be strictly learning Python for now. So, instead of trying to juggle between C and Python, I have decided to spend most of the time understanding Python first and figure out later how much diversification besides college I could do on the side which would help me later in my career or business.   What have I learned past week -   a) There is data, information and knowledge. Data are useful information (they can be treated as raw materials - old school concept) while information are data arranged in some pattern, they are organized data. Data becomes information when some form of intellectualization is incorporated to extract knowledge. So, there is also knowledge in the mix - which is the outcome achieved after assessing/interpreting data and information. Data can be analysed in various ways, among which are quantitative (using numbers), qualitative(using wor...
