Bad habits of IT Students/Programmers/Developers (this list came and based on my professor and workmates) 1. Being so perfect (perfectionist) Most of the programmers/developers like perfect or complete code. It's ok to create an app and update the design and code in the next version (if there's an error or you think it's not good). 2. Few and Many Comments Most of them forget to insert or add a few comments in the code. It's better to add meaningful comments to figure out the code. But of course, don't add too many comments like line per line comments per code. 3. The blaming This is one of the bad habits even for non-programmers/developers. Here is an example, most of the students blame each other because there's an error in the code or their project/thesis didn't run. Also, there's a called a backstab blaming too (secret blaming). 4. Copy Paste If you want to learn to code, it's ok to copy and paste the code but copy-paste with understanding and comprehension. Don't send copy-paste program and projects to your professor - understand and rewrite/edit it . 5. Always make a plan/procedures Students create a project without a plan, without a problem, and without any procedure or framework. 6. The Backup Make a backup of your files in case you lose your code or your files become corrupted. 7. Soloist I only add this to the list because some developers prefer to code alone (freelancer dev or no boss). But it's a bad habit to have when working on a team project. To achieve a successful outcome, you must work with other team members. 8. The Ego/Pride If you can't do it, it's better to ask for help from your friends or search on the internet. Don't be too proud of yourself.
