Can someone please explain github to me. Posted: 22 Mar 2020 11:14 AM PDT Okay i am dumb as a rock and can't figure out what the fuck is github what the hell is all the protocol and version control repository gist fork?!?!?! Can someone please explain this platform to me in simple terms because i fucking can't figure this out. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 22 Mar 2020 05:24 PM PDT I was working through Eloquent Javascript and the second chapter had this problem. I had heard of it being used in interviews and screens but after working through it, I dont understand why. It seems just to be a simple if else conditional flow problem. Apparently there are 2 main solutions, a simple branch conditional (which I did) and then a clever double if conditional. I was surprised that a problem like this was used in interviewing though as it did not require any algorithms, data structures, etc to solve it. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 22 Mar 2020 02:13 AM PDT This is in response to an earlier post about taking a break, the inverse is true. I'll often be either sleeping or struggling to thinking about work, then I'll have an epiphany and figure out a solution. I always keep paper and a pen beside the bed. I've lost track of how many bugs I've fixed when I've been about to fall asleep. [link] [comments] |
Would there be any interest in a weekly programming "office hours" with a senior dev? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 04:45 PM PDT Hi all, I know a know a lot of people who are currently on a journey to learn more about programming. Several of my friends are trying to break into various industry segments and are self teaching through various topics. This can be a hard process -- it was a hard process for me when I was in college and had the structure and scaffolding of a formal education to help me. To that end, I've been wondering if having a general programming "office hours" via Discord would be helpful for people. Not many people showed up to my hours when I was teaching, but since we are in quarantine pretty much globally, I figure that there might be some people sitting at home with nothing better to do than keep working on learning to code, who might like some help. Things we can do: Things I do not want to do: A bit about me background wise: So. If there's interest, please post saying so (also feel free to ask a question in the comments). I want to gauge how much of my schedule, if any, would be appropriate to carve out. [link] [comments] |
Should I bite the bullet and learn JavaScript? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 11:23 PM PDT I started coding as a hobby using Unity and C#. I would like to stick to C# and have started Learning about .Net Core. Much of the popular front-ends are using JS. I would like to avoid learning a whole nother language for Web apps (I am already familiarizing myself will HTML and CSS). What are my options and how good are they if I want to avoid JS or am I making a mountain out of a molehill? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 22 Mar 2020 12:51 PM PDT Hello everyone, I'm an engineering student! We have a long break now and I've decided to lean programming! I'll be starting with python, i have very less knowledge about it and I'm gonna start with MIT's Introduction to computer programming. I plan on mastering the art but before I have some questions:-

Posted: 22 Mar 2020 11:31 PM PDT Hello! I'm hoping to get more comfortable with different programming languages. I'm not 100% sure which to start with! I'm really just wanting to learn and utilize different platforms to run data analysis. Coding isn't of high priority, but I would definitely like to get my feet wet. Any tips or advice on what to start with? Thanks in advance! [link] [comments] |
Forming a Small Group to Learn C Together Posted: 22 Mar 2020 06:30 PM PDT Update: All six spots are filled up! If there are more people interested, you are welcome to try and find each other in the comments and organize yourselves accordingly. Hello Redditors, I am Casey, a 27 year old male interested in learning about computers and programming. I have already read my way through Code: The Hidden Language of Computer Hardware and Software and I am now trying to learn programming. My goal is to form a group of six people to learn with that can dedicate an average of 1 hour per day to study C (the ANSI version). I understand some days people will be to busy, and by no means will this be enforce in any harsh fashion. I believe forming a group will help me stay motivated to learn and be of value if I face any problems that feel like a wall. If you could benefit from the same, please consider joining me in this small group study. My plan is to go through the book: The C Programming Language Second Edition for ANSI C. The book is 8 chapters long and those chapters consist of 189 pages. I picked it because it's highly recommended, relatively short and was in part written by one of the creators of C. It looks to be about 20 dollars on Amazon to buy used (at the time of writing this). Communication will mostly be held through the text chat system of discord. There is a section for each chapter and people can post their solutions/problems for each chapter. There are also general chat rooms if people want to get to know each other. The server also includes 1 on 1 voice chat rooms for helping each other out as needed. While I would prefer the use of the text chat rooms so we can all look at and benefit from them, I also understand just talking it out over chat is simpler. I will be using the gcc command to compile on Fedora (linux), but you are welcome to compile however you like. If you need help learning to compile, I can help you. The book will not cover that. There are many online guides too. Send me a message through Reddit introducing yourself and why you want to learn C to join. I will send you the discord link. Should I get more than 6 people who want to join, I will mention this group is full in an edit at the top. [link] [comments] |
Coding patterns and principles for better code quality Posted: 22 Mar 2020 08:40 AM PDT Hi Everyone, I have 2 years of experience but I have realised that I don't follow good coding/ programming practices, So I am trying to start from basics and learn all good practices/ patterns, I our organisation many people don't follow even the simple things like SOLID principles, naming conventions etc , But i want to learn those things , So can someone list down resources like Books, Articles, Topics, Thanks.

Java program ideas for a beginner? Posted: 23 Mar 2020 01:30 AM PDT I have always programmed as a hobby, and after some years of basic frontend javascript (+html) and a little C, I decided to learn Java. The thing I like more is using canvas or similar 2d spaces, but that doesn't seem to fit my level, so I ask you, what could I do to improve my level? The thing I find more complex are modifiers, but I can manage to get them working fine [link] [comments] |
What is the purpose of learning to 'draw' shapes as a beginner programmer? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 09:40 PM PDT Aside from reinforcing fundamental concepts of coding, like flow of control, and familiarizing new programmers to IDEs and what not, are there any other 'bigger picture' concepts this practice can be applied to? I'm still new myself, but I am curious to know if it is a precursor or a building block for something specific aside from just practice. [link] [comments] |
Best software for practicing with JavaScript? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 07:26 PM PDT So I started with Atom when I was learning HTML and CSS, that worked fine, then when I tried to run JavaScript on it, it kept throwing error messages, I assumed it wasn't the write kind of software. So I tried Geany, but that's still not working right, it says I don't have permission the run the very script I just executed. So what's the right software to use with Javascript? The code I was trying to run was very basic. output I can go get the error message atom outputted if anyone thinks atom is great for learning JS in. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 22 Mar 2020 09:38 PM PDT Are there any free or affordable online classes/programs, where I can learn how to code? While being in quarantine, I might as well learn something new. [link] [comments] |
When do you accomplish anything of significance? Posted: 23 Mar 2020 01:11 AM PDT I've been learning programming for like 2-3 years. The tasks we get on tests are always very mathematical. My question is when do you start making actual programmmes that can actually be useful? [link] [comments] |
Learning source for data structures Posted: 22 Mar 2020 09:24 PM PDT Hey there, I'm taking a break from school. And I want to learn the data structure. I know there are YouTube videos, lots of online stuff. But you know I'm overwhelmed cuz there are a lot of resources. Like damn How did y'all learn data structure properly? Stayed motivated. If anyone can tell me about python or JS data structure resources that was convenient for you, let me know. If not any other language works, as well. Thank you kindly. [link] [comments] |
How to find a mentor in these times? Posted: 23 Mar 2020 01:04 AM PDT Hey everyone, I realised a lacking area in my life is having a good mentor. I left a troubled home at 17 and perhaps got into the bad habit of being too "solo". I have been trying to remedy this by signing up to tech meetups, etc., but now those are all canceled. Where have you found good friends or mentors to do some projects with? Thank you very much [link] [comments] |
Should I have a huge iterative project or many small ones? Posted: 23 Mar 2020 12:58 AM PDT I've got to learn a lot as a new software engineer who also studies CS at college. When learning something like a new programming language and/or a concept (like the SOLID principles of OOP in C#), would it be best "professionally" and also from a learning and effectiveness standpoint if I tried to do one huuuge project covering as much as possible that I refactor a lot and add to, or lots of mini projects to cover the current learning point? Thanks. Edit: To be a little clearer - I suppose I'm asking if I should aim for full programs, or proof-of-concepts. Do I make a game I come back to and refactor when I learn a new best practice, or a new small proof of concept console app to demonstrate the practice minimally. While I could do both, I've no idea which to lean towards. [link] [comments] |
Struggling to learn to concepts, algorithms, and learning in general Posted: 22 Mar 2020 11:23 AM PDT I'm not sure if this breaks rule 3 : So I get that programming isn't actually remembering the code itself, and just remembering the concepts and algorithms. But I took an "Introduction to Data Science using python" class on Coursera shortly after I took the "Python 4 everyone class (Py4e)" and passed. Throughout my first 2 days, the Data science class gave me some popup assignment that's not a grade per se. but rather what took place in the video. I made a futile attempt to actually do what it asks me to do. But every time I did, I had no clue what to do to answer this problem asking me. So I just hit continue, only to feel like an idiot and say to myself "Oh that was so simple" or "I would've never thought of that". I'm worried that I'm not learning as well as I should be. Even when I watched the video multiple times, I'm still not able to pick up the concepts and what they're demonstrating. Even worse sometimes, sometimes I don't know when I can see myself using things that I already learned and how to apply them in real-life scenarios. TL/DR: I just want to be able to master how to learn and think like a programmer so I can increase my aptitude. But I struggle to know-how [link] [comments] |
How should I go about learning intermediate programming? Posted: 23 Mar 2020 12:51 AM PDT Hey, so I've learned the basics (at least) of many programming languages. I mean I'm only 14 but I have a lot of time on my hands. I've gotten through the basics of Java, Javascript, html, css, c, c#, c++, PHP, and python. I tend to be stronger in Python and Java, but I have more experience with them overall. The basics seem really easy for all of them, and I have them down pretty well. The problem is that you can't start doing a whole lot with just the basics, and I want to actually learn how to get deeper into the language than that, and put together some more impressive things. Do you guys have any tips on how to do this? I don't have any money to spend on courses. Also, I'm assuming at this point I should focus on less languages than all of them listed above? Which should I focus on if I want to learn desktop software development? Any input would be appreciated. Thank you for your time! [link] [comments] |
Challenge: Explain Algorithms with the vocabulary of a toddler Posted: 22 Mar 2020 06:52 PM PDT Just like the title says, I'd like to challenge veteran coders and beginners alike to try to explain algorithms, time/space complexity, data structures, etc. in terms that a toddler would understand. The rules for this challenge:
Optional:
It's meant to be a fun challenge to both test our own knowledge of these concepts and also help out anyone that's having a hard time understanding them. I'm going to post my attempt of this by the end of the week as a video! [link] [comments] |
Posted: 22 Mar 2020 10:29 AM PDT Hello there ! Like said in the title I'm a french physician. Activity's crazy since the spreading of Covid19… I'm currently searching a way of helping my fellow workers to write patient's file faster. Since it's always the same things we type I'm thinking about a program that would automatically write some sentences in a word file by just clicking on certain buttons. Example ==> configure a box ''Patient coughs" Another one ''Patient dosen't have headache" And so on and so on…. Ultimately, after configuring all the boxes, all the physician will have to do is click on the boxs to write what he wants. It will save us a lot of times guy, and we sure do need it… Thanks everyone and sorry if I didn't make myself very clear, I'm still a beginner … Thanks ! [link] [comments] |
What to Learn After completeing CS101/APCSA bc of coronavirus? Posted: 23 Mar 2020 12:49 AM PDT So I just recently finished all the content review needed for the APCSA exam and of course I will review all this for the exam. But now I'm a bit bored since my local community college wont offer the continuation of APCSA in the summer (only in the regular fall/spring term) and I want to keep learning since my school wont assign any assigments due to corona. Is there a course I can go to to learn the course after CS101? I program in Java also. [link] [comments] |
Lots of time and no idea what to do with it, Need help. Posted: 23 Mar 2020 12:36 AM PDT So my exams are ending tomorrow and I have three months of holidays to myself, What courses in programming what you recommend me to try out? I am interested in Python, Javascript and would like to learn more about machine learning and artificial intelligence [link] [comments] |
Beginner help. I swear I've read the FAQ. Overwhelmed with Resources. Posted: 23 Mar 2020 12:32 AM PDT Is there any beginner out there following a certain path or curriculum? I've seen OSSU, freecodecamp.org, Coursera, edX, Udemy courses and I have also seen the curated resources https://github.com/Michael0x2a/curated-programming-resources/blob/master/resources.md#java. Now, I don't know where to start. I want to start today. What did you follow through? Thank you so much for your time. [link] [comments] |
