  • "In today's world of perfection, hard work and the important is unemployment in third world countries like Pakistan, Software Engineering is much better than other field of study, because no one can be unemployed if he is a good programmer and can easily earn an average salary in the market. Also it's very interesting to create different kind of application in today's fast growing world of IT."

  • "I've been hooked on programming since the first time I got a block pixel to appear on an Apple IIe in 1983. There's a sense of magic in being able to tell a machine what to do, and then see the commands come to life as something meaningful and useful to people, enriching their lives, helping with life's mundane tasks, making the impossible possible - and all with a sense of well-crafted, artisanal beauty. Software engineering is the culmination of art, science, and humanitarianism."
