How to THINK like a Programmer

First 500 People Get 2 Months of Skillshare FREE --- https://bit.ly/forrestknight6

I've been wanting to consolidate my thoughts of what I've been discussing in recent videos, especially the "My Process of Completing a Software Engineering Task" video, and that's what I did in this video. The overall aspect of thinking like a programmer is all about problem solving. You don't call a carpenter a "hammerer." That's just a tool in their belt. And although many of us call ourselves "programmers," that's just a tool in our belt as well. As software developers we need to understand how to come up with solutions to the problems we're given and use our skills to see out those solutions.
I'm sharing the framework I use to solve these problems, which is essentially how I THINK as a programmer. The context is what's really important in this video, not necessarily what I decided to title each piece of the framework.
