Python Udemy Courses - FREE learn programming

I am making a game in python, and I am really having the feeling that software developers are god. They have written that code correctly that it will run, and here I am; who doesn't write a game correctly by reading the code also...

My respect for software developers is growing these days because I have known that running a software program is not an easy thing to do. But we costumers, don't appreciate that and say that design was not good...etc...I am moving out of topic..

What did you do when an error occurred while you were doing programming? How did you resolved those all?

experience! please!

How to become a better programmer?

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 10:10 PM PDT

I'm currently taking an intro python class and I find that I'm not using the most efficient or best solution. For example, I can write a code that goes through a few steps, but it can be written as a loop to reiterate and have the same solution. Anyone know any mindsets or habits that can help steer me in the right direction to thinking more efficiently and effectively? Thanks.

Where to get programming help as a beginner?

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 06:16 PM PDT

After receiving no useful replies to my 5th Stack Overflow question, getting no responses in Java discord channel and having a very, very off-topic lecturer this year, I am in grave need of programming help.

The question is - where can I get it? Stack Overflow, Java Together discord and Programming discord are the main resources I know, and they are not for me at all. Is there something I'm missing?

I assume my questions aren't "interesting" or "well formulated", because I can't cut the code down to bare bones. Well fuck me, I'm a beginner with pretty much no talent at programming. I need help to improve... and I certainly can't find any so far...

PS. In case anyone is interested in how bad questions can look like, here you go https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52919561/printing-a-stack-with-a-for-loop. However, I don't need a single answer - as topic suggests I just need a place where I could ask questions and get decent answers.

I hope this is the correct subreddit to ask this question. I would really love to hear some success stories where you dropped out of highschool and took a risk and went on to work for a company as a programmer.

Computer networks textbook?

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 08:52 PM PDT

I am currently taking computer networks the book we have to use is J. F. Kurose, Computer Networking: A Top Down Approach Featuring the Internet, 7th edition. This book is kind of hard to understand so is there a book someone can recommend that basically encompasses and easier to read? Thank you in advance!

My math/problem solving is weak enough to start affecting my code. Should I go back to math fundamentals and build up from there?

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 08:28 PM PDT

I'm in precalculus after switching majors and not doing math for a long time. I think that it's affecting a lot of my problem solving skills/efficient solutions so I've been honing in on it. Many sequence/math oriented stuff I have no idea how to approach in defining the necessary functions, return types, and variables, especially when they put limits or a format I must follow. Currently I'm reading/working on the art of problem solving and how to solve it in hopes of improving rather than doing code/tool stuff. Besides this, I am only taking school classes focusing on basic code/my precalc class. Will it pay off to do this and will being weaker on the coding side suck for me during internship searches, etc.? With how behind I am I feel like it will take me several years before I even start with computational math/algorithms which will put me behind on job searches and internships but I guess it's only fair considering how little I put into it before. Thanks and any advice is appreciated.

Overcoming Creative Blocks

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 06:05 PM PDT

Hey guys, I was looking for some advice. Sometimes for projects and assignments I get these creative blocks that can take me a while to overcome.

I only really have this problem when it comes to coding. I struggle with starting up a project, like where to begin or what to really start on. Sometimes I also have issues figuring out how to tackle some things like what is the most efficient code to use, etc. I feel as though I am not creative enough when it comes to coding.

Anybody have any tips, tricks, or advice on the subject? I want to be more creative with my code!

Learning maths for better programming and optimization

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 11:44 PM PDT

Hello.

I'm not so new into programming but I still have a LOT to learn, that's why I'm here.

I've always been a dumbass in maths. No joke, It's very hard to me to understand the logic of maths. Mainly thanks to my DCD (Developmental coordination disorder). Even additions could be pain sometimes.

But I need maths to become better ; I need maths to make better optimuizations for my programs. Sometimes I make little video games (only 2D) and they require a lot of maths or logic : Thing I don't possess or manage to understand very easely.

So, today I don't have much to do, so I want to know what I need to do in order to help me in programming.

I'm not that bad at programming. I have a strange logic sometimes but I'm still a newbie (only 1-2 years), but when it comes to doing maths, It's horrible. That happends not so much but If I want to be better I need maths, that's obvious.

So here I am, asking : What do I need to learn / understand to get better at programming with maths ?

Thanks for your help.

What's the best - Registering data in the application or in the database ?

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 11:37 PM PDT

Hello,

I'm creating an application for a company. It's an internal application.

My problem is, I struggle with the way I'm handeling how to process Data thought the application. I've never created a application for a company (it's part of my school, actually, to go to companies.) so I have two choices :

Fetch data from database, registering these data into classes, and when the guys had finished with the app, the later sends all the new data into the database.

Fetching data thought the app, like, when the app need it, it call the database.

The two choices are interesting, but I don't know. The first is more secure in a way, but I can't get new data when i'm using the new application (ex : if someone else use the apps, update some info, but the other guys opened the application before the update. They will push wrong information then !). The later is less secure because I call my database very frequenlty. But at least, the information is updated.

Security and update. I want to say I need both, but as I look it, it's not possible.

Any solutions to this ?

Thanks for your help. Don't hesistate to ask me anything, my english is not so good.

How does event works in React

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 05:37 PM PDT

In ember ,the action( or event) is indicated in the template and ember assigns an uid to that element like data-ember="Ember32145" .I understand ember uses that uid to add event listener. However how does React know that specific Dom element has an click event? I have the same question about data binding.i guessed they actually uses the HTML onclick, but inspctor showed nothing there so something else is going on.

Sorry if there is a article exist on this. I could not find any.

In search of aids/supplementary content to help me teach someone Web Development

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 11:34 PM PDT

Hey everyone, first post here. I've been a freelance developer for a few years now, and I'm getting to a point where I'm getting more work in than I can necessarily handle. I have a friend who is interested in the field, so I'm looking to give him a hand learning and try to bring him on to help me with a few projects.

Much of the work I do is full custom builds on various CMS's (Craft, Wordpress, Shopify), and I'll pretty much just be having him working of lower-level front end stuff for now.

So what I'm looking for is a couple of resources that are less of the tradition full-depth "courses" like freeCodeCamp, and more of a nice bit of introduction reading, followed by some good resources where I can have him work on a starter project and dive right in, so I can get him working on project under my watch as soon as possible, at which point I can jump in and take a more active role in teaching.

I'm considering having him burn through some of the w3schools chunks just to get him comfortable, and not sure where to go from there. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

How to add an existing repository to GitHub?

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 05:03 PM PDT

So I tried the following commands they suggest on their page:

git remote add origin

git push -u origin master

Apparently on the terminal it worked fine, but nothing appears on the repository I created on the github page. Is there something I'm missing?

Also, excuse me if my english is bad

Thanks

Questions about learning

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 10:46 PM PDT

Hi ! Am thinking of going back to school next year for some sort of programming, haven't decided between game or app development etc. I understand how code works, but don't know how to actually code. Was wondering what programs/tools would be a good way to start learning during my free time.

Thanks in advance !

Help, what is wrong with my random number generator??

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 10:16 PM PDT

I need to print a certain number of random numbers (n) that are in the range of 2 to 1,000,000. I read my class textbook and followed the formats provided but the code does not print anything. Am I putting something in the wrong order or am I missing something?

Here is what I have so far:

 int RandomNum; int n=0; int count=0; RandomNum = (rand() % 1000000) + 2; printf("Enter a positive integer:\n "); scanf("%d", &n); while (n<=count){ printf("&d\n", RandomNum); count++;}

Thank you for your time!! :)

Have any bootcamp grads here NEVER gotten a software dev job?

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 02:38 PM PDT

I'm curious, has any bootcampers here end up not getting a coding job? I spent 9 months at a coding school and many more months after applying to jobs, but haven't gotten a single callback. After spending over a year not working, I'll need to get a job soon. I still want to be a software engineer, but it won't happen anytime soon at the rate I'm going.

Question about Dynamic Arrays in my class - specifically the add new entry function

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 09:47 PM PDT

I have a program which has a member variable as a dynamically allocated array.

I am creating a function to add a new entry but im a little confused.

If you look at my function below, you can see on line 3 I have capacity + 1, to me this makes sense, we are incrementing the size.

but later in the code, we have capacity++, why are we incrementing again?

I tested the code by removing these and it breaks, seems like I need to increment at the top and bottom. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

void ClassName::addEntry(string newEntry){ // Create a new array string *newArr = new string[capacity+1]; //copy the contents for(int i = 0; i < capacity; i++) { newArr[i] = newitem[i]; } //delete old array delete[] item; newitem = newArr; // Add the new entry and increment the size newArr[capacity++] = newEntry; }

Programming Languages for Network Security

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 09:36 PM PDT

First of all, I hope the title made sense.

Straight into the point, I would like to work my way towards a network security-related jobs such as pen tester. My question is, without any knowledge of programming/coding, what language should I learn first and what other languages should I learn later on? I would appreciate if you commented in an order from first to last.

What back end programming language do I have to use to create a real time chat?

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 09:25 PM PDT

I want to create a chat application but I don't know how to go about implementing the back end service.

I am aware of this protocol called Web Socket that allows real time communication between server and client, but I wonder if that's even used on chat apps.

From what I have read, "traditional" languages used for web development such as python/ruby/php can only handle a few thousand concurrent clients, but certain languages such as Elixir can handle a lot more. Are those languages not used for building chats?

[C++] Can someone explain <cstdlib>'s QSort function to me? Specifically compar.

Posted: 21 Oct 2018 09:03 PM PDT

Here's QSort: http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstdlib/qsort/

I'm coming over from Java and apparently C++ actually has QSort implemented already in <cstdlib>, but I'm confused as to how I use it. I'm trying to sort a list of names into alphabetical order and I understand that I'll need to do something along the lines of calling:

qsort(string[] array, array.length, sizeof(string), compar)

(I know the parameters above were not technically C++ legal, just wanted to get the point across)

Simple enough, except I have no idea how compar() actually works. I just know I have to write my own compare() function for my QSort() to sort alphabetically. The example which they provide on the web-page, which is to make a compare function to see which number (I assume) is bigger or smaller, makes no sense to me yet it works. How does it work, and specifically how would it work if I wanted to use it to sort an array of names alphabetically. Thank you

Update: Thank you for all the input, I did look up the other methods as suggested but I had already invested so much time into testing qsort that I wasn't about to give up. Finally got it to work though!
