Programming is already complicated enough without having to reinvent the wheel, so to speak.

  1. We need libraries to re-use existing code. We shouldn’t waste our time writing code that another programmer has already written.

  1. Why do we need libraries?

Libraries hold pieces of code. For instance, if you wanted a picture slideshow, instead of creating your own from scratch, you can go and grab one already created.This not only makes your job easier, but by manipulating and understanding the code you grab, you can learn as well.

why do we need libraries?
because it allows us to reuse code that have previously been built by other users. we can use this “library” to our advantage in our coding.

Why do we need libraries?

For various reasons. Among others:

  • For project source code organization.
  • To modularize our software projects (packing functionality in different libraries with, hopefully, a clean interface).
  • To reuse code.
  • To be able to easily share code with other developers.

  1. Why do we need libraries?
    To reuse code. Libraries provide functions that others have already written, and there’s usually documentation the describes how to use those functions.

  1. with libraries one can organize code in reusable, cohesive and modular bricks so that an architect/designer/developer could choose to use from, by reuse, allowing to save time to build faster working solutions from functions and classes that do already what it is needed so that there is no need to reinvent the wheel all the time to make a straight rolling software.

Why do we need libraries?

So many things are already built and we dont need to reinvent the wheel, instead reuse and change parameters. its more efficient and speeds up processes.

  1. We need to use libraries containing code. That code will allow us programmer to not write everything from scratch. We can think of it as useful building blocks

to store functions or programs that we can use so we don’t have to create things that already exist.

A: to save time and to see how other programers write programs.

we need libraries for efficiency and to make better use of our time. Why type out an entire code that has already been written?

  1. Libraries are to make coding more simple. If someone has already created code for a certain attribute you want to incorporate into your own program, there is no use attempting to start from scratch.

  1. Essentially we need libraries so we don’t have to waste a bunch of time writing code another programmer has already successfully written.

Why do we need libraries?

  • We need libraries because we as programmers don’t want to reinvent the wheel every time we need a function to perform a specific task. Instead people post and share libraries with working functions inside of them and anyone can use them.

  1. We use libraries so we don’t reinvent the wheel for everything but focus on our own added value.

Libraries are used to help coding problems become much easier because another person has already created that certain coding function. Libraries are codes written by other programmers, they send their code to a server where it can be kept and used by other people. For example on khan academy instead of creating a function for a photo slide, there was already a library posted making the work much easier. Libraries make the already hard to make code easier with the community around it that supports other creators and gives them a hand using the libraries they made.

  1. Libraries are awesome, because there is no need for a code writer to re-invent the wheel. Programers can focus on ideas instead of spending tons of time doing all the technical work. They can just take existing libraries as a LEGO block and build something new.

Libraries are used for any developer to implement existing code modules that other programmers already have created. This makes programming a lot more efficient and everybody is not wasting time on solving problems that there already exists a solution too.
