You're right, the job market isn't fair. But I think a Fresher should be granted to still having to learn how to deal with that.

I agree with you in the sense that I think everyone deserves a friendly welcome to CodeProject, and gentle, rather than harsh, feedback to guide them ... if they then, over time, prove they don't give a hamster's ass about this community and its guidelines, well ... even then, while refusing to tolerate their behavior, there's no need to make fun of, or attack their character.
cheers, Bill

Thank You @BillWoodruff

Step 0: Make sure you're a software development fresher.
Step 1: I never made it as far as binary, so I have to stop there.

Do you have any friends/family that already work as developers who could give you an in?
That's by far the fastest way to get started. Apart from that, spend lots of time on reading articles on CodeProject, watching videos on Pluralsight, applying for every job going (not just in IT, better to be employed in any respect than not be employed) and just be relentless in trying to get that first programming job.

Thanks @JMK-NI for your valuable suggestion..
Actually I did and doing all the things you said(including reading articles on CodeProject) and didn't know the Pluralsight but I visit that site its good and CodeSchool also  ...
thanks for the Site...

Well, scientists announced they can now store data in DNA. One has to wonder if that's how life here got started - "Coded" DNA left on the surface of the petri dish that we call "Earth".

Well... if we follow the timeline of bits available backwards from 64 to 32 to 16 to 8... so on, so forth... it was truly binary programming then?
Well... that makes sense... 1 and 0... in a phallic sort of way...

DNA uses triplets of four possible nucleotides (Adenosine, Cytosine, Guanine, and Thymine) to encode 21 different amino acids. This implies a 6-bit system with some redundancy.
Perhaps DEC's early PDP machines (12-bit PDP-5 & -8, 18-bit PDP-1, 36-bit PDP-7 & -10) were on to something!
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I think it may be a trinary (+0-) system with significant null states.
The difficult may take time, the impossible a little longer.

A DNA codon consists of 3 base-4 digits (each digit may be one of A, C, G, or T), giving a total of 4^3 or 64 possible values. I fail to see how you could represent 64 states in trinary without some "forbidden" values.

You are correct. That's what I get for trying to do complex math in the wee hours of the morning.
Just as an aside, what would our computer math be like if the early computer developers had used three states for a bit instead of two?

It depends on which ternary notation you mean.
If we used "standard" ternary notation (0, 1, 2), the increased complexity of the circuitry is very likely to make it uneconomical compared with binary notation.
Calculation using balanced ternary (-1, 0, 1) has some advantages, but I question whether the increased complexity of the circuitry would make it more viable than binary. I note that only two models of ternary-based computers were built, both in the Soviet Union. Neither was a wild success.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Setun[^]
http://www.computer-museum.ru/english/setun.htm[^]
If, however, we were to use ternary logic as representing "no", "maybe", and "yes" (i.e. one value implies that the datum is uncertain), we might have something new. I don't know of attempts to program "fuzzy logic" in ternary, but would be interested in any examples...

...the impossible takes slightly longer.

This is actually, very interesting to me. I will fight the urge to post back funny/not funny comments.
This also sounds a bit scary.

What did you store there before that time?
Non-data?

Perhaps they have the proteins needed to write such sequences, but it makes me shiver if they try to use this on a living cell. They would probably use 'Junk DNA' as storage space and then it will probably quickly be seen that some sequences were not evolutionary rubble at all. Hopefully such a massive and undeliberate mutation will not be able to survive.
