Six-year-old sets world record as youngest computer programmer

Arham Om Talsania, a six-year-old boy from Ahmedabad, has bagged the title of World’s Youngest Computer Programmer by creating an unprecedented Guinness World Record, reported ANI.

The Class-2 student has cleared the Microsoft certification exam at Pearson VUE test centre.

“My father taught me coding. I started using tablets when I was 2 years old,” Talsania told ANI.

“At the age of 3, I bought gadgets with iOS and Windows. Later, I got to know that my father was working on Python,” he said.

Talsania is son of Om Talsania, a software engineer, who started teaching him the basics of programming and developed his interest in coding at a very early age.

“I want to be a business entrepreneur and help everyone. I want to make apps, games, and systems for coding. I also want to help the needy,” world’s youngest programmer said.
