What do you do after learning the syntax of a programming language? Posted: 08 Feb 2018 07:51 PM PST Someone asked the above question on ARCHLinux Forum and Awebb, a very senior member replied so beautifully that I thought many newbies would appreciate, so here you go: Source: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1648609#p1648609

Posted: 08 Feb 2018 12:01 PM PST Hi all, I'm hoping to get some answers here because I am primarily self-taught and am currently working on my own so I don't really have anyone that is experienced to get good advice from. A little about me: -- several years of experience in advertising doing analytics -- primary language is python, used for machine learning (~3 years) -- I have previous experience with front-end dev, but it was mostly building / modifying WP sites (have built two sites ground up) -- self-taught (in order of knowledge/exp): python, html/css, javascript, solidity I have a little more free time now and I have an idea for a mobile app that I would like to create. I've been researching what I need to learn in order to do that, but I'm feeling overwhelmed with the options / routes I can take. It seems that these are my options (with a ranking of how well I know each component on a scale of 5): -- python (5) + flask (2) + kevy (0) -- js (2) + react native (0) + redux (0) -- swift/objective c (0) -- java (0) So with all of this said, what path should I focus on? Since 90% of my time is spent programming in a data science context, all back-end web/app dev is fairly new to me (except API-oriented programming). Should I leverage what I already know about python and try building something that way? Or should I focus on the JS stack? If JS, should I focus first on getting a firm understanding of programming in vanilla JS? Or should I just jump into tutorials for the various frameworks? Also, if I spend about 4 hours per day trying to learn it all, how long can I expect until I'm able to actually build something? Thanks for any help! It is much appreciated :) [link] [comments] |
Where would I start to program a computer from scratch? Posted: 08 Feb 2018 08:31 AM PST So this may sound stupid but I want to build a computer in minecraft. I am fascinated by the core components of how computers work, and have successfully made all the components before such as the ALU, RAM, and some hard coded commands, the problem is once I get a machine capable of taking some input, running a simple operation and storing the response I have no clue what the next step is. for example I can make a machine where I feed it reads the first 7 sets of binary and knows that 1 says add 2 and 3 and 4 says take the answer and store it in slot 6 as dictated by slot 5. I understand this is probably too complicated to explain here, and I may even be in the wrong sub. I would be very appreciative of any help or pointers on where to start this quest. I'm sure it can be done as the hardware is already there, I just don't know how. [link] [comments] |
What are your favorite programming blogs? Posted: 08 Feb 2018 04:44 AM PST Which blogs do you follow to learn new programming concepts and stay updated? [link] [comments] |
(Git) Fork, pull, clone or all of the above when working with other people’s Repos on Github. Posted: 08 Feb 2018 07:30 PM PST Super new to version control and still learning the ropes here. My question revolves around other user's Repos that contain resources that I would like to use, (mainly for learning). I'm not ready to contribute to these resources and would like to strictly download locally but not have commit any changes to the original Repo. So here's what I've done so far. I've forked the Repos on Github, then pulled them locally. The command [ git remote -v ] shows my account. My fear is that any weird commits I make will reflect on the original Repo and make a mess of things there. Thanks for your help guys. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 08 Feb 2018 10:50 AM PST hi, I'm teaching a class to non-programmers. We are using QBASIC as an introductory. They've learned most of the basic syntax and now I am making them code a small game. Any ideas of an easy thing to code. I have these two I came up with: Guess the number (i.e. 1-100) -give hints (i.e. your guess is too high!) -keep them guessing until they get the correct number. Door Pass Code -allow player to enter 4 numbers for a locked door -tell them which ones were correct or incorrect -if they get them all correct, open the door -could give only a certain number of tries . . . any other ideas (not too difficult) would be great thanks!

Interview with a software developer Posted: 08 Feb 2018 12:29 PM PST Hey, I'm a university CS student and for a project in one of my courses, I am supposed to interview someone who has worked in software development for 15 or more years. Would anyone here be able to be interviewed? It's just 8 simple questions about working in the field. I'd really appreciate the help. Clarified the assignment. [link] [comments] |
Can someone explain what this code is actually doing? Posted: 08 Feb 2018 09:06 PM PST I have a project where I have to create a program that reads a file which contains an array and calculates the mean and also the standard deviation. My teacher helped me write some of the code but he's not the best at explaining what it means. Can anyone explain what each line is actually doing? Thank you. https://gist.github.com/anonymous/b1f84531684893ebbbabcf9acc95a6df [link] [comments] |
Posted: 08 Feb 2018 09:05 PM PST I feel like as I'm learning the system, it would be a good time to build up some documentation as I go, a sort of lay of the land. But I'm confused about what people mean by documentation. I've done some googling around to try to get some ideas but I've run into a few issues:
We use a mixture of Kanban / Scrum to plan out our work and are an 'Agile' focused company. If you had a Junior coming into a role, what kind of documentation would you get them to build, if they were keen to do so? [link] [comments] |
Can someone tell me what how Arrays work? Posted: 08 Feb 2018 09:28 PM PST So i understand arrays are used to group together like minded numbers or things like that. And I know how to create and declare a variable. I am just confused on what this piece of code is doing actually: int [] n = new int[10]; /* n is an array of 10 integers */ int i,j; My main concern is that why do we have to have a for loop and why is i in the square brackets of n. Isnt n an array? If someone could do a walk through of this it would be great! [link] [comments] |
What can I put on my resume after Codecademy? Posted: 08 Feb 2018 09:23 PM PST I was wondering if I can put anything on my resume after having finish a course on Codecademy? If not, what should I do after Codecademy to put something like Intermediate at Python on my resume? Also, for the self learners out there. What platform did you use to learn coding? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 08 Feb 2018 07:49 AM PST It seems to be really well structured and the learning path is clear, exactly what I'm looking for. But need opinions of the community to know if it's good or not cause I'm a noob here trying to learn. [link] [comments] |
No Internship before graduation Posted: 08 Feb 2018 08:40 PM PST Hey guys, I just had a quick question and maybe it's a silly one. I'm in my third year of college and times really running out for me getting an internship, I've applied to tons of places, but haven't heard back from any. Assuming I don't get one, how "screwed" am I after graduation? Thank you for everyone's input. [link] [comments] |
What language is best for writing emulators and why? Posted: 08 Feb 2018 11:18 AM PST I want to write an emulator and while doing some research I mostly see C++ instead of say... Java or Python is there an inherent reason for this? I know that my specific examples are interpreted languages and are considered "slow", is that it or is there something I'm missing? Edit: Thanks for all the answers, now that I look at them they look (relatively) obvious now but [link] [comments] |
Why can't I count the characters of this text file using this java program? Posted: 08 Feb 2018 07:54 PM PST any help is greatly appreciated. [link] [comments] |
How do I make references in JSON Posted: 08 Feb 2018 11:10 PM PST I've been messing around with nodejs and learned how to make objects with references internally. I want to store these relationships in a JSON file that can be parsed to pull out these relationships. Is these even possible since JS is a parsed language and if it is what is the best way to go about it? Edit: this is specifically for graphs and creating in shortest distance algorithms.

Posted: 08 Feb 2018 10:43 PM PST I have a good amount of programming experience and wanted to share this idea. I got in an intense Facebook nickname battle with my roommate. For those who are unfamiliar, in Facebook group chats you and others can change what certain people are called. This leads to some interesting exchanges. Anyways, if you have ideas on how to go about creating a bot that changes a persons nickname every time someone else changes it on messenger I would love to hear it. Thanks [link] [comments] |
Allocated space for function parameters?? Posted: 08 Feb 2018 09:59 PM PST I'm focusing on programming. I just wonder if memory is allocated for parameters in functions (especially in C++) [link] [comments] |
Any programmers who are also musicians? Posted: 08 Feb 2018 02:03 PM PST Hey, I've never posted here so I'm not sure this is the right sub for this question. Forgive me if it isn't. But! I am looking to find a cantus firmus that is impossible to write first species counterpoint for within the constraints given to me by my music theory professor. I'm not sure it even exists, but it would take an extremely long time to test every possible Cantus Firmus with all combination of notes. So I thought it might be possible to write a program to test all of them for me. Is this doable? If anyone here is interested and can help me do this, I will post the class rules in the comments [link] [comments] |

Trouble Starting MySQL server (Mac) Posted: 08 Feb 2018 05:04 PM PST I apologize if this is not the appropriate subreddit to ask this question. I am also new to SQL and servers/databases so I apologize if some of my questions are incredibly basic or I say things that might not make sense, but I will try to be as specific as possible. I have a 2012 Macbook Pro running High Sierra (10.13.3) that I just upgraded from Yosemite. I am trying to learn SQL and to help me I am trying to set up a MySQL server on my computer. I downloaded MySQL Workbench and that seems to be working fine, but I am having trouble starting a MySQL server from my computer. I downloaded the MySQL Community Server from this link: https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/ I downloaded the first link (macOS 10.13 (x86, 64-bit), DMG Archive) and installed it, which seemed to go smoothly enough. However when I go to system preferences and click the "Start MySQL Server" button, it doesn't start. My computer knows I am clicking on it, as it will ask my for my computer password to make changes in system preferences, and the button will light up blue like I clicked on it and sometimes I'll get the cursor wheel, but nothing else happens. There are no error messages. I have tried restarting my computer and re-downloading multiple times but nothing changes. I have tried googling a solution but have been unsuccessful. As I said I am very new to this so I really have no idea if I am completely barking up the wrong tree or if its a simple fix, so any help would be appreciated. [link] [comments] |
How do I make an view in browser on Visual Code Studio? Posted: 08 Feb 2018 08:23 PM PST I'm new to coding as in I just downloaded the VS 3 hours ago. I keep trying to view in browser or view in default but all i get back is a "supports html files only!" banner. I've tried changing it from plain text to html but it keeps repeating the same thing. I have the MacOS operating system if that helps. [link] [comments] |
Thoughts on Command Line vs IDE? Posted: 08 Feb 2018 04:27 PM PST My university now requires all of our code be done on the command line. I understand the sentiment that it helps you understand the machine better but I don't really know anyone who uses the command line for personal projects. That and I love Pycharm and IntelliJ so someone tell me why this is necessary. [link] [comments] |
Looking to create a web chat application (C++) Posted: 08 Feb 2018 08:04 PM PST I'm interested in making a web chat applications where two users can send/receive texts, videos, and voice files. Are there any resources so I can learn how to do this? [link] [comments] |
