It was last year, when Shubham Panchal, 14, got inducted into the world of Android application during a class on coding at his Thane school. While programming can seem daunting to someone, who has never written a line of code before, for Panchal, it presented an avenue of endless possibilities. "I think it was the joy of creating a useful mechanism and tinkering with a complex medium that fascinated me," he recalls. In less than a year's time, Panchal has created 10 apps. And now, he has cleared the Associate Android Developer Certification Program offered by Google in collaboration with Udacity (USA) to become the second youngest Associate Android Developer in the world this year. The youngest is 13-year-old Muhammad Rayyan Siddiqui from Pakistan.
