Notes de l'éditeur

  1. I want to split my presentation in to 2 parts , one to discuss the “ trends in the industry with a Srilankan context the other to talk about what the Industry’s expectation of a young graduate when he joins a company , what should be his profile.
  2. Need to understand basic computer language principlesPosses good solid background knowledge on software designing and object oriented design concepts.Programming languages get outdated very quickly. You can be a Java expert today, but if some ground braking technology becomes the industry trend tomorrow you will in be trouble.Mastering concepts will help you to understand and grasp any technology when you need to switch between languages.So focus on getting your foundation properly setup by learning concepts and not languages
  3. 2 most important days in your life the day you born and the other ….. Not the day you are going to die … or got married
