Mastering English and computers is the basic ability to get a job right now. But Tim Cook also advised young people to also master coding skill. According to him, coding is the second most important language that can be learned. The younger you master, the better.


"I think all children in the world must learn how to 'code'. Is your interest in science or art, it's a way to express yourself," said Tim Cook.


Coding ability is really needed in the digital age today. With these skills you can work in various industries. Cook also did not advise young people to plunge into the world of coding and become programmers but suggested that coding be part of knowledge.
"I'm not saying everyone should be a programmer. I say it's like a foundation like math and history, it's like a basic ability that young people should have," said Tim Cook.
The benefits of coding are proven to increase a person's chance to become rich. In 2017 a third of users on the Codecademy platform said they made more money because they studied coding. Last year the average income of software developers was $ 106,000 or Rp. 1.4 billion per year.

Besides coding, Tim Cook also said the importance of creative abilities for young children.
