IT 5-Minute Trivia Dictionary
Description
Book Introduction
From trivial questions like, "Do all developers have to use MacBooks?" to "What on earth is a server?"~♬
A comprehensive dictionary of IT trivia that answers questions both experts and non-experts alike in just 5 minutes!
I work in the IT field… There are so many strange people around me these days.
Some people count numbers from 0.
Don't we usually count from 1? Also, some people say, "I'm building a website, but the library I'm using is problematic, so I need to use a different library."
Wasn't the library a library?
Ugh! It feels like I've crash-landed alone on a planet where people communicate in an alien language.
I need to somehow communicate with these alien-like humans! But where do I even begin? The road ahead feels daunting.
These days, if you work at an IT company, you'll hear these terms every day. Even if you're a stock trader, IT knowledge seems like basic common sense. You can't possibly read every book on IT... What if there was a book that explained basic IT knowledge in five minutes, from a beginner's perspective? Why do we count from zero? Why do we keep mentioning libraries? Now I think I understand.
A book that I can understand really easily has finally come out.

Publisher's Review
“I wanted to create IT knowledge content that even my parents in their 60s could understand.”
An introductory book full of IT knowledge that anyone can easily understand!
Nicholas and Lynn of Nomad Coder, who run a YouTube channel with 400,000 IT knowledge subscribers.
One day, Nicholas said, "I can explain the API in a simple and easy way that even your parents can understand. How about making a video?" So I posted a video on YouTube titled "API Basics".
He uploaded a video titled '5-minute quick kill!'
But soon after, it became a popular video with a huge number of views.
After that, I gradually created videos on IT knowledge that even my parents in their 60s could understand, and that's how the current Nomad Coder YouTube channel was born.
From over 150 Nomad Coder videos, we've carefully selected and reclassified the topics essential for those living in the IT age. The content has been refined by Nomad Coder's editors and planners, and then reviewed by IT experts to create this definitive IT primer! Anyone who desperately needs to understand IT should read this now! Even beginner developers, not just non-experts, will find Nicholas's straightforward explanations refreshing.
“I don’t plan on studying IT in detail, but I still need to know what it feels like.”
Perfect for those who don't need to study hard but still need to know IT!
You've probably heard many times that IT should only be studied to the extent that you can communicate.
It's easy to say, but can you really study like that? This book says you can.
From coding fundamentals to web development, computer engineering, and cutting-edge technologies, Niko Sam uses metaphors and illustrations to explain the essential concepts and misconceptions you need to communicate with people in the IT world—all in five minutes.
Now you will be able to answer the following questions:
"What the heck is that API? Why do I have to pay for a domain? Does serverless mean there are no servers? Why is Python so popular? How do you express algorithm speed? Are Git and GitHub the same? What if developers see my password?"
"Are developers geniuses? Anyone can become a developer? No, no! I'll clear up some misconceptions about developers!"
A thorough introduction that answers even the vaguest misconceptions and curiosities about the developer world!
These days, people everywhere are saying, "Anyone can be a developer!" But is that really true? As far as I know, developers are just people who scribble code on a black screen... like geniuses?! And they all carry around MacBooks. Does that mean you have to buy one to become a developer? Do you have to be good at math to become a developer? I gave up math in high school. What should I do? No, no! This book will clearly answer all the misconceptions and questions about the developer world you've only vaguely imagined.
“All the confusing IT terms and IT terms you’re curious about are gathered here!”
You can search for 81 IT terms separately!
Are you overwhelmed by the countless IT terms—libraries, frameworks, HTTP, APIs, cookies, algorithms, data structures, stacks, queues, arrays, and more? For those who want to quickly read only the terms you're curious about, Nicholas has compiled 81 IT terms, along with page numbers.
If you are studying, working, or just sitting around and wondering about a related term, you can quickly find the relevant page number and resolve your curiosity.
Keep the book close by, and whenever you find yourself wondering, "What did this term mean?", open it and ask yourself the question.
"A vivid explanation! With Mr. Niko's lectures!"
Visit Nomad Coder's YouTube channel to study effectively!
The 'IT 5-Minute Trivia' playlist on the Nomad Coder YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/c/노마드코더NomadCoders) contains videos organized in the order of the book's content.
You can study more effectively by listening to Nicholas' lectures along with the book.
[A word from an expert who pre-read, reviewed, and revised this book]
Want to learn IT skills comfortably in a short period of time?
New programming languages and IT technologies are being released every day.
No matter how hard you try, you won't be able to learn all the techniques.
How did the term "technical debt" come about? But I enjoyed this book, as it provided a quick and easy overview of new IT terminology, new development environments, and new programming languages.
It was also nice that Niko-sensei's voice was supported.
I support all of you who are always awake.
- Go Kyung-hee, Microsoft MVP, author of "Do It! HTML+CSS+JavaScript Web Standards"
It's full of IT knowledge that even non-majors can understand!
I feel like there's a lot more to know in the IT field these days.
Many people struggle and get lost in the myriad of concepts! I'm confident this book will serve as a guide for those struggling with this situation.
I thought that if I had this book, I wouldn't lose my motivation to study IT, and I wouldn't have to wander around trying to find what I wanted to know.
Additionally, Nicholas's uniquely friendly tone will help you learn even difficult content quickly and easily.
It's full of IT knowledge that's good to know, whether you're a developer or not.
I had fun watching it.
thank you
- Joycele and Gluwa developer
[A word from a beta tester who saw this book first]
A must-read for anyone who needs to understand IT.
The advantage of this book is that it explains things at a level that even a true newbie who needs to understand IT knowledge can understand.
And since Mr. Nicholas personally explains the background, principles, and concepts of the technology, it was really fun and much easier to understand.
- Lee Geun-na, Posttype Developer
Instead of Colombian coffee, try a table full of Colombian IT knowledge!
This book is filled with know-how that can be read by anyone, whether you're a developer, planner, or designer.
I will always support you in reading this book and making better choices and experiences in the IT field in the future.
- Romuru, aspiring front-end knowledge sharer
What if I had read this book before starting to learn coding?
I think this book was written with the hope that readers will not make the same mistakes the author did.
It was good to learn the basics of coding and the developer's mindset.
I would like to recommend this book to anyone who is lost while studying coding.
