What are the important terms to know when starting programming ? Posted: 21 Feb 2018 11:05 AM PST I have been writing code around for a while, in Netbeans, DevC++, VisualStudio/Unity but I never stopped to wonder before that what are the terms I need to know
Yes there are definitions of them on the internet but without examples it's hard to grasp what they really are. Thanks [link] [comments] |
7 weeks of studying Python. Progress update! Posted: 21 Feb 2018 07:01 PM PST My New Year's Resolution was to study Python. I had no prior programming experience and I just jumped right into a book. I am now 7 weeks in and I have completed 11 out of 17 chapters in How to Think Like a Computer Scientist. The struggle I'm going to admit that I've been struggling with progress since the exercises are way more involving now. I am continually revisiting previous sections to figure out how to solve problems. I've also tapped into IRC channels and Stack Overflow a few times to get help. Although I am at a one chapter per week pace I am forcing myself to learn. At times it's an incredibly frustrating process. Sometimes I'll have a script that continues to throw errors (syntax and/or semantic) and I cannot for the life of me get it work. I'll spend hours trying every method I can think of. Sometimes I just give up; I'll walk away from my computer, go for a walk, grab some coffee, then come back and start fresh. Sometimes that works and I have working code in five minutes, or sometimes I continue to struggle for hours. In the end, I reach a solution and the script works! After talking to a few programmers I've learned that this is the way it is for them. Trial and error, studying methods, asking others, Googling, etc. The goal I will continue studying and hopefully by the end of the year I'll have enough knowledge to apply for a Junior Developer position somewhere. Until then, thanks for listening and for the support! [link] [comments] |
Online coding bootcamps. Are they worth it to make a career change? Posted: 21 Feb 2018 08:54 AM PST The title pretty much summarizes my question. I am 1 year out of undergrad with a pretty decent finance job, but I want to finally pursue my love of computers and technology. I got a decent tax refund and bonus that I would love put towards this dream. My ideal path would be to add programming skills and transition to another part of my company. In regards to making a career change or adding skills to help my current career, is throwing down 5-10k on a coding bootcamp worth it? I've heard it's all what you put in (I'm willing to put in 20+ hours a week), but I would love to hear what the reality is. [link] [comments] |
C# Intro to Classes assignment Posted: 21 Feb 2018 06:29 AM PST Update #5: I'm absolutely amazed by all the positive support from users replying and upvoting my thread, thanks alot to all of you. for all of those who are interested this is the code now: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/ec427baeb2028c88f167d03a7ba1b894 Up: Works Down: Works GoTo: Works'ish... (after i have gone up to for example 15, and then for example GO to 12 it starts at 16 for some reason) however since no one in my class has managed to do any of it yet i am pretty sure all of your help is realy helping me out in my education; so again thanks to every single one of you! -----------------------------------------------------------original message-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi all, I've been working on an assignment for school introducing us to classes. so far i've come up to this: [outdated version link] We need to make a ''robot'' that can walk along a line of integers in 3 ways: Up : Robot can walk up the line 1 position (position++;) Down : Robot can walk down the line 1 position (position--;) To given integer value : for example 10; robot walks from current position to position 10, declaring where it is every step of the way. At first i was trying to use If and Else for the decision making, but this wasn't working out. (i had if input == "+" : GoUp(). if input == "-" GoDown()) Because of this after the first input, i had to give inputs 2 times before it would perform the actions. So i thought i might need a switch statement, however here i am running into the problem that i can't run the code without putting in 'Break' at each 'case' which results in the program shutting down after the first input. Perhaps i am taking a very wrong approach, maybe i am not. i am just trying to learn and hope someone can help me out at this point. (where i am stuck between having to give 2 inputs for 1 result OR program shutting down after first input) Alot of thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to read and/or answer my question!! Sidenote on my code: (Dutch -> English : Omhoog = Up / Omlaag = Down / Ga naar = Go to (but i haven't started this function yet). update #1: I 've been looking for alternatives to Break, ive found 'Return' but it still closes down :( update #2: Im not looking for someone to prechew the assignment for me, if someone could point me in a direction, maybe a web resource that could help me out would be alot of help update #3: big thanks for answers to MeedleyMee, Dilie, b44rt, Artman41 and Shredder8910 ! update #4: i can endlessly repeat the program to move the robot up or down, however from the 2nd input onward i have to enter 2 inputs before it registers only the 2nd input :S code now looks like this: [outdated version link] [link] [comments] |

Posted: 21 Feb 2018 10:49 PM PST can be contrived this is an exercise to convert a string of numbers into an int using recursion. I had fun with it [link] [comments] |
Posted: 21 Feb 2018 12:06 PM PST So i became addicted to a certain band and wanted to download their full channel as mp3 files but can't seem to be good at using youtube-dl so i thought it could be an opportunity to learn. Can i create a small program to download single videos, full channel or playlists as mp3? if yes, what would be a good starting point? [link] [comments] |
Learn JAVA together.Creating a discord if interested. Posted: 21 Feb 2018 05:56 PM PST Hello, i am really motivated in learning JAVA and i am planning to be 100% dedicated in doing it in the next 1-2 months. If you are planning to join me , i will create a discord server or a slack group and we can discuss and help each other learning, and at the end of it , we can create a project together on Github.

Posted: 21 Feb 2018 11:54 PM PST I need a basic script that can post to these subreddits on this schedule. Also, I need to be able to know it's working correctly without having to up my permissions on the SSH server I'm using. I've tried so many things for weeks now and I feel like it's a simple script to write, but I don't know enough python to do it alone. [link] [comments] |

Should i revise/learn some math while learning programming? Posted: 21 Feb 2018 11:35 PM PST Hi all, I'm currently struggling like mad in an online programming class. My university kindly allows alumni to take 2 night classes for free so i chose the 6 month programming course where they teach the same material taught to the first year computing students in 3 months (a term) but over 6 months (called programming methodology). I now know why back in my college days, i never see computing students till late at night when they prowl for supper... The course is headbangingly hard for me, i can do most of the lecture questions (after some time) but once questions get more abstract, im like paralyzed. I usually solve the lecture questions because they are number based, kind of like math. That was how i understood if/while and recursive via trial & error. Then im completely lost when the course requires us to work on assignments with images and use functions to manipulate the images. Im pretty sure those questions are there to test theory and im struggling terribly on it. (How do i do iterative on when everything is a function??) When i shared my troubles with a friend, she commented that recursive sounds a lot like a math theory that they learnt before college (i took the less advanced math subject) and a lot of what im struggling with sounds like theories in math that she has learned before. Would it be easier for me to understand the logic if i went to learn some math theories and what should i learn along the way? Do i just have to keep practicing programming questions (like math) until i get it? Number sequencing have always been one of my weakest topics in math... [link] [comments] |
Posted: 21 Feb 2018 11:08 PM PST So I'm working with the motion controller patched exe for DS4Windows, which works like a champ. The only reason it can't be used for streaming purposes is that it always works from 127.0.0.1, so can't be accessed by an external client. According to the author, that can be modified to 0.0.0.0, so the local network can reference the server from another computer (in my case on the LAN). He even referenced me to ILSpy as the tool to go about it. Sounds like a simple change, but I'm way, way, way out of my depth. I think I may have found the object that's defining the variable that needs changed, but I honestly don't know. And I'm not 100% sure how to re-define the value of the variable and then make it stick the the executable. Which probably needs recompiled. My brain hurts and I clearly don't know what I'm doing. Anyone wanna adopt me as a pet project and help me understand what needs to happen and how? [link] [comments] |
A local database that is compatible with Python and Javascript? Posted: 21 Feb 2018 07:27 AM PST I have been trying to find a database where i can write data with python into it and read the data with javascript in a separate file. this will all be serverless and connectionless. is there really no db that i can use for this and should i just use a json file or even a txt/csv file? it's just table data [link] [comments] |
[JS (Chrome Extension)] How do I gain access to the microphone for my Chrome extension? Posted: 21 Feb 2018 06:55 PM PST I understand that there's a way to do it involving opening up a new page, but I would prefer not to have the user open anything besides the popup. [link] [comments] |
do you anyone reading "C++ Primer"? Posted: 21 Feb 2018 10:28 PM PST i want learning C++. I looked for everything that was relevant. I am torn between "C++ Primer" and "C++ Primer plus". I know there are many thread to comparing both. I nearly chose C++ Primer before I saw the contentse. I wonder why "C++ primer" does not have contents about Thread and boost. but "C++ primer plus "contains the contents. i think Thread and boost lib is very important. But people still recommend "C++ primer". If there is no contents of boost and thread, should I choose that? [link] [comments] |
Is it true that software companies use lawyers to protect themselves from users? Posted: 21 Feb 2018 10:21 PM PST One of my profs said that since most of the time it is impossible to predict what type of input the user provides, so it is impossible to fully test the code, and eventually a vulnerability will be found. Because of this software companies hire lawyers so that they write contracts for the clients stating something like: "Company X is not responsible for loss of ur data". Have any of your companies done something like this? Also, there are bunch of apps on App and Play stores, submitted by individuals, sometimes even kids, if a vulnerability is found in any of those, and user data is lost, can the developers/company be sued? Is it a requirement to have contract when submitting to the App or Play store? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 21 Feb 2018 12:29 PM PST Hello r/learnprogramming, straight to the point! I'm a second year CS science student, and i've been thinking about changing my life style completely to try discovering my true potential. I have basic/medium understanding of everything i've studied so far, but i've decided to go further, i have great teachers, a good java Book and couple good resources, i've deleted the only couple games i play and i'm ready to completely focus. I'm writing this to look back at it after 30 days and see how far did i go. (what i'm studying Java, SQL/MySQL, app development, software engineering, network architecture and protocols) [link] [comments] |
static is giving me an error in my main method Posted: 21 Feb 2018 10:11 PM PST I'm not sure why but in my program in the client class static is giving me an error. Removing static seems to remove the error but in my programming class I've seen many examples where it's fine. Here's a link to an image of the code https://imgur.com/a/rPG1y (sorry for using imgur i tried copy pasting the code but was having issues). The error says "modifier 'static' is only allowed in constant variable declarations". All help is appreciated! [link] [comments] |
Posted: 21 Feb 2018 09:52 PM PST I am an applications programming student, and I think the courses are a bit bland. For one, it doesn't help that my teacher uses the most vague terminology. For example: I feel like my teacher just doesn't know what he is talking about:
My point is, after hearing hours of lectures from this guy, my passion for application programming never was that huge, I can confidently say I don't want to build application software. In fact, I want to learn how the computer works, and I think systems programming would be a great start. Do you know of any good lectures on YT? The search returned vague results, and a Google search for a PDF of Systems Programming was also a mixed bag; I wouldn't know where to start. Any help is appreciated. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 21 Feb 2018 09:25 PM PST Can anyone explain to me how to document code? Below are the requirements, but I don't know what any of it means. What's the scope and input/output? How would I document a website or small game? Each programming example should be in a self-contained directory and should include code, documentation (indicating intent, scope, input, output, etc.), user guide/instructions, and illustrations of input and output for the program. Include a README text file explaining the contents of your submissions as follows: Your name Directory structure for your code samples Explanation/description of each code sample Date when the code was written [link] [comments] |
Posted: 21 Feb 2018 06:05 AM PST Hello, I am relatively new to coding and I am making a text-based game in java. My question is regarding overriding. I have a superclass called "Location" which has 2 subclasses, "Room" and "OutdoorsArea". Now, I want every location to have a describeYourself method which describes to what other locations you can go, for example "there is a path leading west". So I want the Superclass Location to have describeYourself. Now, I want class Room's describeYourself to say "There is a DOOR leading west" and outdoorsArea's describeYourself to say "there is a ROAD leading west", so basically saying the same thing except one word. I know I could just override the method and simply write System.out.println("there is a road leading " + direction) in the OutdoorsArea class and System.out.println("there is a door leading " + direction) in the Room class but that feels like that is unnecessary code duplication. So my question is, can I somehow invoke Location's describeyourself with super and make so the subclass's describeyourself only change one word of the superclass's describeYourself method?
