General Purpose: To Persuade
Specific Purpose: to Persuade my Audience to learn a programming language
Why Learn a Programming Language
Introduction
I. Attention Getter: In High School, my friend and I are discussing card games, when he starts talking about. His idea for a card game. As he describes the idea I suggested to him that his card game sounds more like an MMORPG (Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) game. We made this agreement that we would try to develop this game, and I started by learning about the programming that is involved. Which is when I started to learn C++ programming language.
II. Specific Purpose: It is through this experience that I realized how useful learning how to program can be, while at the same time, saw that not many people knew what I was talking about. It is my hope that after discussing program languages with you, you will learn one of them yourself.

Credibility Statement: I am an individual who did his best to learn programming on his own, I read web pages, bought books, watched online videos, and wrote lots and lots of bad code, producing good pieces of code.
IV. Preview of Main Points: In order to convince you, I will answer these questions:
a. What is programming?
b. Why should I learn to program?
c. How can I get started?
(Now let’s start with the issue)
I. Not a lot of people know what programming is like
a. Question: Anyone here know what programming is like.
b. Evidence: Based on my experience, I find that a lot of people, including my friends and family, do not know what programming is like.
c. I often hear generalizations about programming like:
i. You need to be good at math ii. Programming is a complex process iii. Only smart people can program
d. None of these claims are true, and I will show you.
(So let look at the basics)

No one knows for sure where the ponies came from.The Chincoteague ponies stand at twelve to thirteen hands. Chincoteague ponies are stocky with short legs, thick manes, and large round bellies. Assateague Island is a harsh environment for them to live and their diet is limited. We will be focusing on the Chincoteague pony roundup. You will learn about the History, The modern day, How did the book Misty of Chincoteague help the pony roundup become famous,You will also learn about the ponies on Assateague island, Finally you will learn a few quick facts about Assateague island. Did you know for a horse to be considered a pony it has to stand less the 14 hands or 4.6 feet?
JUSTIFICATION: In researching the possibilities that the bite marks can be falsely identified, I found that the analysis is not always an accurate way to identify the suspect, that being said I think that we should reconsider the partial bite mark being used as evidence.
During summer or spring time nothing is more joyous then going out for a vacation. Traveling with your family or with a bunch of friends in your favorite RV is incomparably mind blowing! Everyone needs a break from this day to day life that’s for sure!
As I opened the front door of the IBM Building, my next chapter in life began. My eyes widen as I observed my teacher writing code on the smartboard. Uneasiness and fear rushed down my spine. I was the only person among fourteen girls without prior knowledge of coding. I spent eight hours in a confined room learning how to code. My computer science teacher appointed assignments in HTML and Python.
Topic: Addiction to social media General Purpose: To persuade Specific purpose: To persuade my audience that social media is hurting us mentally and our social lives. Thesis: Social media can cause serious problems to you and your health, so we need to put addiction to social media to rest. I. Introduction A. Attention-getter: The ages of 55 and 64 year olds who use social media fell “worried or uncomfortable” when they can’t access any type of social media accounts (Wright, 2015).
There is much controversy over whether or not minors should be tried and convicted as adults; most often with cases involving murder.
Thousands become ill, become hospitalized and some even die from complications of the flu. In the 1918-1919 Spanish flu pandemic, 20 to 50 million people died across America and Europe.
I know C, C++, C# and can help with programming from the beginning with basic functions, pointers, data structures, through advanced programming help with object orientated code, templates, inheritance, operator overloading, interfacing with assembly, function pointers, using an external dll or anything else. I've extensive experience in Online Java Programming Assignment Help and Online Java Tutoring,so I can provide you with tutoring in Java from the ground up, where you start with a small class, all the way up to a full blown application. If you need Help with Python, I can show you how to use it, to perform simple operations, file processing (reading and writing csv files), natural language processing, GUI support, or using a web framework such as Django, Web2Py, CherryPy or others. Python has a very extensive library so it is a very flexible language and makes it easy to write complex programs like a web scraper, or to access a database using sql. I also provide Programming Help in programming languages such as Javascript, HTMLBASIC,
My undergraduate preparation at the Computer Science of my University has given me a very substantial knowledge of the basic areas of Computer Science. Any amount of learning in Computer Science would be incomplete without hands on experience of Programming. In a world where...
Programming is more fun and astonishingly useful as it build your creativity and creates new career doors for those passionate about it. Most people today don’t really know how a computer works even thou they can simply turn on a computer or a mobile phone by just clicking on some buttons or swiping a finger or two and the computer does what they want. Learning how to write computer programs will require one to understand how a computer works.
The field of Computer Science is based primarily on computer programing. Programming is the writing of computer programs using letters and numbers to make "code". The average computer programer will write at least a million lines of code in his or her lifetime. But even more important than writting code, a good programer must be able to solve problems and think logicaly.
After my twelfth grade, the inherent ardor I held for Computer Sciencemotivated me to do a bachelors degree in Information Technology. Programming and Math, a paragon of logic and reasoning have always been my favorite subjects since childhood. I still vividly remember the time during my graduation,when I was successful in creating a simple calculator application as a class assignment.The joy I derived from creating something that is used by a lot of people to help them perform complex calculations,made me realize the power of computing in its true sense.It was also in my graduation that I developed an immense interest in programming languages such as Java, C++ an...
