• Have you ever thought of what you need to become an ABAP developer?
• Have you doubted that it’s not for you because you don’t have a degree in IT?
• And finally, How difficult is it to learn SAP ABAP for a non-programming background person? 

  You may see me as a lunatic, but ... 
  … I’m convinced that Sherlock would be the best-paid developer if he decided to shift his career from detective to IT. 

  I have a few reasons why I’m pretty sure about my statement. 

  The number ONE reason is explained in the Q&A video (above) that Ladislav shot recently. 

  The other one is hidden in the puzzle. 

  Last week, I shared with you Coding Challenge (see the bottom of this page). It was about solving a small puzzle - outputting how old you are in years, months, weeks and days. 

  I consider those of you (who worked on the challenge) as a Sherlock - detectives.

  Why? 

  You see mystery (problem), and till you don’t know the answer, you work on it. 
  And the best-paid ABAP developers are the most passionate problem solvers. 

  However, if you are seriously thinking to shift your career and start with IT development but you are not 100 sure you will be able to become IT Sherlock Holmes 

  … and you don't want to waste weeks of your time by self-learning and then realize that this is not for you.

  ABAP Academy Diagnostics can be helpful for you. 

  Regards, 
  Tom

P.S. 
.
If you pay attention last week then you know that you can have ABAP Academy Diagnostics (497 Eur) even without any cost. If not, I’m reminding the Christmas Reward to you. Use your chance. 

We are closing the challenge today - Monday 20th of December 23:59.

Create an algorithm that will return your current age based on your birthdate.
The output should contain years, months, weeks, days. 

From your source codes, we'll choose one winner who will get access to our training - Diagnostics - 
in value of 497 Eur.
