<h1>Women Who Code and Why You Should Code</h1>
<h3 id="dark">Why is coding important for the future?</h3>
<p>By 2020, 1.4 million computer science jobs will be available. Currently only 18% of science graduates are women, compared to the 37% in 1984. As the gender gap increases, the importance of young girls being interested in Computer Science is becoming more significant. If more girls are taught to code, they will have more job opportunities in computer science. In addition, coding inspires creativity and ideas to unfold, especially with females now becoming a part of the computer science industry. People have come up with several creative ideas which they are implementing with code.</p>
