Hi,

I woud like to create software, which will create mcq exams, from queston bank and then check result with OMR software. I do not have much programing knowlage, but I did see some basic programing videos.

I would like to know how much time this could take me and if it is relaistic taks?
 
LoL you can't learn programming and creating complex software by just watching few basic programing videos.
Without knowing the programming basics plus a tons of other things,it is IMPOSSIBLE for you to create the software you want.

Programming takes years to learn and master...
There is no way in the world to learn all that in just few basic videos lol.
If programming is that simple then everyone would know how to create software lol.
 
I disagree with S.T.A.R.S. What you are after isn't that complicated. Anyone that's dedicated enough to build some software they want, can do it with little to no experience. This very successful game was programmed entirely by a guy that had no experience at all when he started.

You don't need to "master" programming to be a be able to write a program. Just figure out what your program requires, and start from there. It's easier to learn when you are learning for the purpose of completing a specific project. To see it from start to end, you are looking at several months to maybe a bit over a year.
 
Just pay some muppet to do it. Programming is like bricklaying or any other slightly useful trade, low paid, and pretty easy to find someone to do it for you for very little in India.
 
Ok, so some month so a year is quite rough evaluation, considering you did not specifed how much timer per day I would be using. But nevertheless, it see it is quite a long period, even if the program is (relativly) simple.

So what would take the most time(program language, specifics,...) and where it would be good to begin if I do it myself?

And how much time would experienced programmer used for that quind of program?
 
Well yea lol...what did you expect? :D
A few button clicks and copy/pastes? :D

It's not that simple. :D

Where would it be best to begin with you asked...

Well...the beginning will be extremely hard because you will need to start thinking on completely different way and that takes time.Just by starting to understand programming might take you some time.It's not simple as it looks lol.
I recommend to all beginners to start with simple console applications in Dev-C++.
Because you cannot start with windows applications immediately.Why?
Because you won't understand anything lol.Same applies for simple console applications too,but at least they are less complex so they are suitable for beginners.

If I am not mistaken,there was one thread about PROGRAMMING made by one user who asked how to start and I gave him few replies so feel free to read it:

Ok, what abaut experience programmer, what is the estimated time for them for that kind of program? (day, weak,....?)
 
Well that really depends on the programmer and the programming language he/she uses.
Things can easily become complicated where you least expect it.
I would say a week if you include the testing time before releasing the software.

But that really varies on the individual...
