Mehul Tahiliani, 10

“In coding, every little mistake could take hours to find, so you need motivation. That is the number one thing when you are programming — you have to be motivated … Staying on one thing, even though [coding] is so broad, when you can work on only one problem, [it can get] dull. But as you start the project, you just have to keep thinking to yourself about what it’s going to look like when it’s done.”
