| Is it a good idea for a 43 year old woman to study programming now? Posted: 13 Jan 2018 11:18 AM PST This is for my mother. She has a Bsc Computer Science, but that was about 20 years ago. So you can say barely has any memory about programming. She's been a housewife for around 20 years and now feels like finding an occupation. Is programming a good place to start for a 43 year old woman? She's concerned whether she'll ever find a job since employers would prefer a younger candidate. She's incredibly enthusiastic about problem-solving and does have great interest in computer programs. So if she were to start programming, how should she carry on after this? I know it's unlikely, as it is for anybody, to become very successful out of nowhere. So what are the realistic options my mum could take after learning a language such as python?

| Where should I go to learn Python? Posted: 13 Jan 2018 10:04 PM PST I really want to learn Python... but I just don't know where to go. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 13 Jan 2018 06:13 PM PST I'm confident enough in my programming ability that I believe I can accomplish this, I just don't know where to begin. I've been trying to follow a Google Cloud Storage tutorial, but I've encountered a bunch of errors and I'm not even sure the tutorial is relevant or if I should use GCS. My end goal is to encrypt all uploads so only users can decrypt their own files; I haven't quite figured that part out yet, but I want to do it right from the beginning and figured I could use some advice. Thanks in advance for any help. [link] [comments]  |
| Web development for my dad's company Posted: 13 Jan 2018 07:40 PM PST Hi guys! I've been teaching myself to code html/css for about 1.5 months now and just finished my portfolio website. I've actually got a few questions so strap yourselves in.
Sorry this post is so long. Thanks to anyone who made it to the end and has any answers for my questions. [link] [comments]  |
| Feedback on my Website/Portfolio Posted: 13 Jan 2018 05:27 PM PST Hey everyone, I just finished the second version of my portfolio and I am wondering if I could please get some general feedback on things. What I am particulary wanting to know is:
Thanks guys I really appreciate it :) [link] [comments]  |
| Hey people of reddit. I made a hangman game! Posted: 13 Jan 2018 05:20 PM PST https://code.sololearn.com/WZUmGiRyu12E/#js This is my computer science project. It's hangman. Take a look and. Tell me what you think!! Anything I should add to or improve on? Not great on to look at on a cell phone. If you have a computer, open the link there. Email it to yourself and open it haha :D it would make me happy. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 13 Jan 2018 11:57 PM PST Hey all! So - I'm creating an application, and I've got some ideas of some languages I may want to learn for it. However - curious what would be the best Language to learn for me to design something like the PS4/Xbox One/Switch/SteamOS user experience. I'm going to have it interface with existing Windows Applications built around C++/C# etc. I've had a suggestion of maybe using Electron previously, VBNet - but I just cannot decide what I want to learn, to achieve this - and what would be the best and most streamlined language for my task. I'm quite good with graphic/UI development already - as far as my standards go I guess LOL. So I just need something to wrap with - and program behind. My UI/UX will interface with existing Windows Applications - such as game emulators. I would also like game controllers to take control of the application, as well. Here is kind of an example of what I'm talking about to some degree. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yNQiny2wowtiTVJXzggSxHfM9IuPW5IsduHQ0vBmWWc/edit Thanks! [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 13 Jan 2018 11:30 PM PST Hi, so some background as to what I'm trying to accomplish - (apologies if this is too much info, just want to be as specific as possible) : I daytrade crytpocurrency, and I use this website called Coinigy, on it there's a bunch of different trading exchanges and each exchange has it's own coin market. I recently went through each coin market on the exchange I use and color-coded each one based on how much BTC volume it had in the last 24 hours. I think it would be helpful to mention that on Coinigy, each coin's 24-hour volume is displayed either relative to itself or relative to BTC (Bitcoin) I use the volume relative to BTC. The next day, I went back and realized almost all the markets I had marked up had a vastly different amount of daily BTC volume. Now, it would take too much of my time to try and go through each market every day changing the color as the daily volume updates. So my question is which programming language should I learn that would allow me to create an automated program that could scan each coin's BTC volume every hour, and update each market's color as the volume updated? An added bonus would be if the program could tell me which market's color has changed since the last time it scanned through. I've also read on this subreddit that python is a good language for automated programs, but I'm not sure if what I'm trying to accomplish is too complex for python or if there's a better language to learn for this. If there's any questions I would be glad to clarify. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 13 Jan 2018 07:28 PM PST This is our first assignment of my third semester, I was excited to start as I enjoy the actual program editing parts of the CIS ciriculum. I am rusty and have forgotten a lot of things because I did not treat my mind very well over the break(oh well). In past semester I have kept a good relationship with this instructor by alternatively solving his assignments, most of that was using my own algorithms or an innovative flow-control, also good comments (though i rarely comment at home) moving on... His instructions are to mean that we need to add another file, this one having a main() function to the project and that is the file we are supposed to be writing code in. My job is not to write the algorithm, its not to define the classes or implement them. I actually do not know what my job is supposed to be. The only thing I see the two programs provided to us are lacking are the user prompts for data-entry. I do not know how we are supposed to use our main() function to actually execute the program. https://gist.github.com/anonymous/3ed009846993e609e651b9d98cf11b35 ---header https://gist.github.com/anonymous/0d85ae089388321905c3149979a1caae ---implementation Ive gotten over all the "why are we doing it this way?" as of right now. I am very aware that a main() function could just be in the implementation file and functions called from there, however, not the assignment. This is not at all how we worked last semester, where we just wrote a main() with some lower level functions and then called other functions from a head file. I have actually never even worked on a program with three tiers so hope all this helps r/learnprogramming help me. thank you. edit** instructions:
Implementation File Name: romanTypeImp (Student Files) Header File Name: romanType.h (Student Files) Using romanType.h and romanTypeImp, write a program that converts a number entered in Roman Numerals to decimal form. Convert user input to all uppercase characters, then use the function setRoman to start the conversion process. Use the functions printDecimal and printRoman when displaying output to the user. Use the input values shown on the Console Output document to test the program. [link] [comments]  |

| Have to brush up on SQL and C#, what are some good sources? Posted: 13 Jan 2018 03:33 PM PST Particularly making the connections, linq, other tips and tricks. I know it isn't rocket science and fairly straight forward but any good material with some follow through explaining in great detail would be great guys. Thanks. [link] [comments]  |
| What to do when you exhaust all resources and you still don't know what to do to fix something? Posted: 13 Jan 2018 04:55 PM PST I installed Visual Studio 2017 for my mac. I followed the following guide to build an app with vue.js and c#/asp.net. http://www.lambdatwist.com/dot-net-vuejs/ I created a brand new MVC project in project studio, then started from the top of the tutorial and started changing code. I can't get past the first chunk where it replaces the default code in the index.html file. I keep getting an error that says: The name 'Scripts' does not exist in the current context + @Scripts.Render("~/node_modules/vue/dist/vue.min.js") It makes no sense because the guy who wrote the tutorial wrote it in a way that it is supposed to work. I then did a lot of googling and stack overflow. One solution that someone suggested was to add the following to the Web.config (which did not exist in the Views folder when I created a new project in Visual Studio): <system.web.webPages.razor> <pages> <namespaces> <add namespace="System.Web.Optimization"/> </namespaces> </pages> </system.web.webPages.razor> Another solution was to put the following in the cshtml (did not work): @using System.Web.Optimization @Scripts.Render("~/Content/css") @Scripts.Render("~/bundles/modernizr") All the other answers were similar to the above 2 solutions or just didn't work. I'm simply just trying to run a C#/ASP.NET application so I can play around with Vue.js. In theory, this sounds extremely easy, but I've been working at this for a day but still can't get it to work. Literally just trying to see a Vue.js hello world essentially speaking. Any help would be appreciated. [link] [comments]  |
| Are there any Python guides for people who know JS? Posted: 13 Jan 2018 10:49 PM PST I know JS, Node.js, but I want to do something with machine learning and image processing. JS is a very popular language as is Python. I am hoping there is some kind of a bridge of information between the two, especially noting the languages are somewhat similar. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 13 Jan 2018 10:43 PM PST It is becoming more clear to me that most "learning program 'x' language" type books, (whether for beginners or beyond) don't actually try to teach how to program, they teach a programming language. What I mean is, there is not a explanation of how to think about, and understand, all the "bigger picture" of solving a problem or creating something that the programming language, as a tool, is used for. Experienced developers that I've talked to will say things like it does not matter so much what programming language you learn, as to be a good programmer you will need to know several languages, as the languages are just tools, but knowing how to program well is something else. This struck me as true in my learning programming by learning a language from a book. I find that I'm not understanding something more fundamental, something at a higher level so to speak. It feels like I am learning about the trees before learning about the forest, if you will. If I knew exactly what is missing from the learning I would be able to explain it better. But anyway, my question is can anyone recommend a book or course that attempts to teach how to program, but not, or only secondarily teaches a particular language? [link] [comments]  |
| Convert JSON String to Array (I think) and then store values in variables? Posted: 13 Jan 2018 09:54 PM PST Bit of a noob question. Trying to do something that I feel should be very simple. I have a GET request coded and working well. It pulls a JSON string from this URL https://www.ezbtc.ca/api/ticker?pair=xbtcad and yields the following; { "volume": "12.87552551", "last": "17900.00", "low": "17500.00", "high": "18851.49" } If I remember correctly this is an array of some sort. I'm pretty sure I managed to deserialize it, but now I need to store and manipulate its values. How would I go about doing that? [link] [comments]  |
| C# - Looking for sites that have 'random' projects to do for others' Posted: 13 Jan 2018 09:47 PM PST Hi all, I'm a serious novice in C#. I've done some work/programs for myself and contributed some code to projects on github, but I really want to expand my skillset at this point. There are a ton of things I don't know how to do or when certain procedures are required/usable to make life easier (lambda expressions, using enums, using delegates are all examples.) I'd like to learn more but also produce tangible results that would be meaningful to someone who is looking for a particular program. I don't do well by reading material, I learn the most by doing something rather than reading. My question is: Are there any sites available where end users can post a wanted ad for a program they'd like to have? something akin to a "hire a programmer"-type site, but without the actual "hiring", I'd love to just volunteer my time to learn something new and help someone along the way. I apologize if this has been asked before, I did an archive search and couldn't find something similar to this. Hope this makes sense. thank you, have a good weekend :-) [link] [comments]  |
| Hey Good Folks, Need some guidance + Feedback Posted: 13 Jan 2018 09:46 PM PST Hi folks, I am a 32 year old inquisitive learner who is married and still plays skyrim and fantasy premier league. I've set 2 professional goals for me this year and I would request your feedback+ guidance on how I can achieve these goals effectively and efficiently. To give u context, I am an electronics& comm engg who worked in a technofunctional role for 6 years before doing his mba. I wanted to switch to data science and analytics space becuase honestly it intrigues me and I am fuelled by the right kind of decision making. But I ended up getting an operations role where the scope of such thing is pretty limited. Currently I am in a senior manager role, pretty good in statistics, have done academic data science projects on small datasets. Where I lack is my limited or zero knowledge about programming. I have indepth understanding of techniques like clustering, regression, Cart but zero functional knowledge of DBMS, SQL, web deployment, Programming. All I know is R and that too is very contextual. So I have set 2 goals I want to achieve by the end of this year :- 1. Build a reddit bot from scratch 2. Make a decent transition to Data science space My 1st step towards this is : The odin project. I want to start my journey in programming and Yesterday, I went ahead with it. In parallel, I am also building my analytics knowledge like neural networks, KNN, using R. What will u suggest to me? What should be my next steps? What should I skip and what should I add? Are there any resources to which I should pay attention to? The idea is not just to make a transition, I can even think of starting something up. Right now, my imagination is constrained by my limited understanding of web space and programming. Thanks a lot for Reading. You are amazing to pay attention till this point. [link] [comments]  |
| [Java] import java.util.Scanner not being recognized? Posted: 13 Jan 2018 05:40 PM PST I'm trying to import the scanner class into my program (I'm using NetBeans) but when I type "import java.util.Scanner;" I get an error that says "cannot find symbol: class Scanner" I thought maybe I typed it wrong so I even copy and pasted the line from code on a different working project and it's still saying that. Not sure where to go from here. Anyone know what could be causing this error? [link] [comments]  |
| What IDE is a good one for C++? Posted: 13 Jan 2018 09:19 PM PST Is Visual Studio the most commonly used one or is Eclipse used mostly or another one? Eclipse is the top search result on Google for ide for c++. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 13 Jan 2018 09:10 PM PST This is a massive wall of code so the main part is the void callback function and the connected_devices array at the top. I can receive data from the MQTT server and I get the string [0, 0, 0, 0] or in some cases [1, 0, 0, 0] I then add the characters to an array if they are a digit with the isDigit() function. I should get an array with the values [0,0,0] but when I print it out with a for loop I get 048 if the message received was [0,0,0,0] and 049 if it was [1,0,0,0]. Not sure where I am going wrong building the array and where I'm getting these weird values when constructing the array. I have a feeling that it's the way I am assigning the values to indexes in the array that is causing the error. Additionally, I also would like to know the proper way to handle this. Like is there a better way that than what I've come up with to handle parsing a python array that is sent as a string into an array back into C++/Arduino code. Please and Thank you [link] [comments]  |
| Need help working with Reddit API Wrapper in Java(Eclipse) Posted: 13 Jan 2018 09:05 PM PST Hello, This is an unorthodox question since it's not about code but setting something up and I hope I can get some answers here because I'm lost. I am trying to use JRAW, which is a reddit API wrapper(java) and I have no clue how to install it. The python wrapper was easy(pip install PRAW) but no idea for where to begin for JRAW and the installation notes did not help me. Any relevant video where it can show me how? Using Eclipse.

| What are some small, yet cool/helpful things that can be done in C++? Posted: 13 Jan 2018 12:19 PM PST I am learning C++ in a structured manner, and am quite familiar with programming, but I am looking for some cool features (helpful methods, etc) that I may be able to implement into my code. For example: toupper(); a nice helpful function that can be implemented into any code requiring single character commands. I am also learning C# and Python, so if you know of any tricks/tips for those languages I would love to be informed as well! [link] [comments]  |
| Method to remember boolean operations Posted: 13 Jan 2018 02:36 PM PST Hi, Just a quick one. Has anyone got an easy way of memorizing the 4 boolean expressions, and, or, xor and not? I'm ok with not tbf, but thats the easy one really lol. I have an exam coming up and I can't for the life of me get the functions to stay in my head. I'm hoping for a little rhyme of something, i don't know lol. Here's hoping anyway, thanks. [link] [comments]  |
