Young coding prodigy : At an age when most children are only beginning to discover what they enjoy, Kautilya Katariya was already fascinated by computers and mathematics. The young student from Northampton became a Guinness World Record holder at six after being recognised as the youngest qualified computer programmer. What began with a coding book from his father soon developed into a much bigger interest in programming, artificial intelligence and advanced mathematics, as per a report by the BBC.
His ambitions have continued to grow. Kautilya has developed his own programs, earned artificial intelligence accreditation with IBM and taken on mathematics far beyond the level normally expected at his age.
