🌱 Learning in public - Day 1

I recently started Harvard's CS50x, and one thing I've already realized is that programming isn't just about writing code-it's about learning how to think through problems.

Coming from Python and SQL in school, starting with C feels challenging, but it's also helping me understand what's happening underneath the code.

I'm excited to keep learning, building small projects, and documenting the journey.

Every expert was once a beginner. 🚀

Hello DEV Community!

I'm Richa, and I'm about to begin my journey as an Electronics and Computer Science (ECS) student.

Before starting college, I'm building my foundation in programming and computer science. I'm currently learning through Harvard's CS50x and exploring concepts like C, Python, algorithms, and problem-solving.

I have previous experience with Python and SQL from school, and I'm excited to take my skills further by building projects, learning new technologies, and understanding how software and hardware come together.

My goals for this journey:

Build strong computer science fundamentals
Create meaningful projects
Explore AI, robotics, and technology
Learn from the developer community
Document my progress along the way

Excited to begin this new chapter and grow as a developer. 🚀
