| Free tool mostly geared towards new C# programmers, available here! Posted: 02 Jan 2020 03:50 PM PST I've uploaded an Excel workbook of mine to Google Drive that serves a couple of purposes that I believe you'll find useful. 1. It currently lists 726 terms that have some correlation to C#. It's a glossary of sorts with embedded links that lead you to that specific term. It covers all the C# keywords, major concepts, and even the obscure lexicon found in the specification (interface mappings... anyone?). Beyond that are important NET namespaces, classes, and the like, mixed in with some GoF and non-GoF patterns and principles. It also includes more general concepts from Computer Science and Computing in general. 2. By itself it's a useful navigation tool, but its innate purpose is to track your ability to learn these terms. I have transcribed all of my analog flashcards to a website built for that purpose. Thus, you can use either the workbook or the website's scoring mechanism to keep track of what you get right and wrong. Instructions on how to use the flashcards are provided there. A few last notes: although I said 726 terms, it's really more than that. Some of the flashcards will ask for multiple answers. Can you name all of the classifications of expressions? All the members in a class? That sort of thing. I estimate it pushes the total to around 2000 taking that into consideration. If this proves popular, I'll update it frequently. The following is a link to a Drive folder where you have a choice between two versions of the file: with or without macros. The macros are only for faster navigation, and since they rely on ActiveX controls, cannot be used with Mac (AFAIK). I also made a YouTube video that explains most of what I said here, and it has a bit more context if you're interested in that sort of thing. Feel free to check it out. The flashcards are not hosted on a personal website of mine. Just a random flashcard-oriented site named Cram. If you have any questions, corrections, or other feedback, my e-mail is in the workbook, or you can reply here/PM me. Thanks for reading! [link] [comments]  |
| Been trying to learn programming for years, I think this time it may be sticking. Posted: 02 Jan 2020 12:55 PM PST I've read books, followed YouTube tutorials, and paid for online courses over the years and nothing has lasted very long. I've downloaded many different IDE's to prepare me for my future in developing awesome applications; however my best intentions crumble into procrastination and are blown away by the winds of apathy. However, I've recently started with Java again. My firm does a bit of Java development so we have to have the JDK installed to run certain internal apps, so there's an excuse. The thing that interests me about this attempt is that I'm sticking with Oracles own tutorials, and keeping everything fairly basic. I type out the sample code into notepad++, and then compile and run from the command line in windows. I feel more in touch with the code and because I've usually typed it incorrectly, I'm fault checking when the compile fails - which happens a lot. I'm still a lazy slack arse, however I keep coming back to it bit by bit until I've completed the section I was on, and I can see the progress I'm making. Feels good man. [link] [comments]  |
| Certificate Program Recommendations Posted: 02 Jan 2020 11:10 PM PST So I started school again about a year ago to pursue a degree in computer science. At this point I have decided that going the certificate route would be a better fit for me. I'm pretty much interested in all programming languages as well as web development. I was hoping some people in this subreddit might have experience with online certificate programs and could provide some recommendations? Right now I'm primarily looking into programs through Harvard Extension School and eCornell. Also bonus side question, what was/has been your favorite programming language to learn? Thanks in advance! [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 02 Jan 2020 11:30 AM PST I'm a CS sophomore and I'm decent at programming when I get down to the nitty-gritty, but I don't really have any experience writing practical software. I'm just looking for general advice on how to make a custom window on my desktop that will basically serve as an overview for my day. How can I get real time weather updates? Should I use HTML/CSS to make the app look decent? I know java and python pretty well, and I can do a little bit of C and x86 (although that's probably not gonna be relevant haha). But yeah, how should I go about getting started on this? [link] [comments]  |
| Voice activated raspberry pi light controller Posted: 02 Jan 2020 05:55 PM PST Hi everyone, I began a project for school where I need to make a program to turn on and off lights using my raspberry pi, while having this be voice activated. I'm really not sure how or where to start and was wondering if I could get a little help. Basically I want to make a smart home device that is voice activated and only used for lights.

| Posted: 02 Jan 2020 09:31 PM PST It took me 2 attempts to pass the algebra regents in high school, do I have a shot at learning to program or should I just accept Walmart fate? Sorry for the dog shit formatting, I'm on the toilet at work and having one of those what if thought moments [link] [comments]  |
| [Video Course] The 2020 Frontend Developer Crash Course for Absolute Beginners Posted: 02 Jan 2020 07:30 AM PST Gary Simon from the DesignCourse youtube channel just posted a front end web development crash course and thought some of you might appreciate it as a learning resource. The video is available here. [link] [comments]  |
| How far were you in your prior career before switching to a programming career? Words of advice? Posted: 02 Jan 2020 09:22 PM PST I've been noticing many people online that have attempted to get into programming after realizing their initial career wasn't exactly what they expected. I'm one of those people. I spent five years in school to become a Registered Nurse with another 4 years experience after. For many reasons, primarily not being cognitively stimulated, I've decided to pursue my initial passion of wanting to code. That was after spending four years in the Navy. It can be discouraging to jump into a field after time invested somewhere else. But some people -- like the people I've seen on this thread -- say "F$*# it, I'm going for it". I'm just curious to hear from more of you. What were your thoughts during the change? Did you get to the point that you'd imagine? Any regrets? Anything that you would do differently? I hope that this will fall on the eyes of people like myself and, for better or worse, give us some insight from those that have been through this journey. [link] [comments]  |
| How high is the ceiling of a self taught? Posted: 02 Jan 2020 04:42 PM PST How far can I get in programming without taking university courses? Aka only using online tutorials and maybe books? I know everyone is different but speaking generally. Can uou get to the level of a bachelor degree only on youtube? [link] [comments]  |
| Resources for Logic and Discrete Mathematics? Posted: 02 Jan 2020 02:14 PM PST I am about to graduate as a computer engineer and i dont understand why we didnt have a course on discrete math and logic on the curriculum. Actually i know why, most of my teachers are electronic engineers... Another thing i dont know much about are automatas and compilers (compilers is an optional course and the teacher that gives it is quite bad so i didnt take it). Should i learn those things? Any good resources on them? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Jan 2020 12:44 PM PST Hey everyone, In the book Automate the boring stuff with python, in chapter 2 in the while loop: in step 1 it says we leave the string blank so it evaluates to true. Why is that? I'm not grasping nor understanding why an empty string would make the != 'your name': true. ❶ name = '' " ❷ while name != 'your name': print('Please type your name.') ❸ name = input() ❹ print('Thank you!')

| I'm very new to programming and need a bit of help Posted: 02 Jan 2020 11:52 AM PST okay so I've never programmed a thing in my life but i really want to get into it my only issue is have difficulty reading so i find it difficult to read those big articles explaining what to do and what not to do would anyone be willing to help or send me a link to a good reliable video that is not flooded with big words and technical terms thank you [link] [comments]  |
| Need help with Inheritance and Polymorphism in C++ Posted: 02 Jan 2020 11:41 PM PST I need help with Inheritance and Polymorphism in C++. Are there any good resources out there that I can use to help me understand it ? [link] [comments]  |
| Avoiding creating duplicate events with google calendar api Posted: 02 Jan 2020 11:29 PM PST I'm creating a python script to add events to my google calendar, however I want to make sure that if the event already exists that I'm not creating a duplicate copy. The google calendar documentation states that I should use my own event id to avoid creating duplicate events, otherwise a unique one will be autogenerated for me every time I add an event. The id should be in base32 hex with RFC2938 , however I can't find any module on python or online that follows the specifications the id states. I tried encoding a random string and it doesn't match. Any ideas on how I can generate one in python? Here is the description of the id field: Opaque identifier of the event. When creating new single or recurring events, you can specify their IDs. Provided IDs must follow these rules:
Due to the globally distributed nature of the system, we cannot guarantee that ID collisions will be detected at event creation time. To minimize the risk of collisions we recommend using an established UUID algorithm such as one described in RFC4122. If you do not specify an ID, it will be automatically generated by the server.

| Best way to learn on days with no access to programming environment? Posted: 02 Jan 2020 12:49 PM PST Ive been learning for several months now so I know the best way to learn programming is to actually make stuff. I do that, but sometimes I find myself in positions where I am not able to do any programming. Can anyone recommend articles/ videos/ podcasts/anything that is effective for when I find myself in these situations? [link] [comments]  |
| converting String to WebElement Posted: 02 Jan 2020 11:20 PM PST I am programming in java,using selenium and web drivers and I get the java.lang.nullPointerException when I have the code: WebElement myElement = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector(usernameSelectorPath)); How can i fix this?? (Please take a look at the same question on stackoverflow, it is more detailed) [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Jan 2020 11:17 PM PST After compiling them, the goal is categorize them in a very organized manner. The next step, if possible, would be to average out these subsections to produce a brief summary of what has been written in the PDFs. I hope this doesn't sound like black magic and is actually feasible. I'm a beginner >< [link] [comments]  |
| Does anyone know a good tutorial for D3 that uses one of the free crypto APIs? Posted: 02 Jan 2020 11:15 PM PST I'd like to learn D3. I learn best by making projects. So I thought making a sort of dashboard to display crypto data using one of the free APIs out there. Does anyone know of tutorials that would be a good start for something like that? Or could anyone give me an outline of the would-be architecture of an app that does the following:
optional - auth is included - logged in users all start with same dollar amount (not real) and compete to see who can make the best picks over time by mock buying and selling - app has a leaderboard - can view other users past picks [link] [comments]  |
| Want to get back to programming after 3 years. Suggest a resource to get started Posted: 02 Jan 2020 11:05 PM PST Used to code back in 8th/9th grade. Now want to start programming again before college. How should I get started? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Jan 2020 10:40 PM PST A personal project of mine is to build a virtual assistant. Not too long ago while looking to see what language I should use for these types of programs, I got the impression that I should learn Java and that is what I have been doing for the past month. However, I recently learned that Java is mostly used for android apps. I know the basics by now and frankly I feel like I've wasted my time since I don't even own an android. I believe that Java programs can run in windows although i'm not completely sure. If possible and I just go through with this and make my windows app with Java will this be seen as a rookie mistake? Would it be buggy? And what should I do if I want the program to run on both windows and android? I'm still a rookie, I am relatively new to these things. I really want to avoid making mistakes that people could call me out on and flame me for. I would really appreciate any help, thanks. [link] [comments]  |
| Open source software that converts JSON schema to table format Posted: 02 Jan 2020 10:31 PM PST Hi guys, I wanted to know if there is any software that converts data in JSON files to SQL table format i.e. it accepts JSON file as input and gives and SQL table of the data as the output. Preferably open source and does not require any human intervention at all. [link] [comments]  |
| Coding Bootcamp to develop cross-platform desktop applications Posted: 02 Jan 2020 12:32 PM PST Hello All, I am an engineer with fairly decent programming skills in Python and Matlab. My company is willing to transition me to the software group provided I get training for the same. I am located around Austin. I have looked up online and almost most camps are about developing Web Apps. I have also googled that but I believe it's still not clear that what do I need to learn to make desktop applications. Please, help me guide through the same and also possible recommend the training if any. Thanks [link] [comments]  |
