| Learning without a clear goal in mind? Posted: 21 Mar 2020 01:45 AM PDT I'm learning programming as a hobby because I enjoy puzzles, math, and solving problems. Plus it gives me an excuse to be tucked away from people. Also, the prospect of getting a well paying programming job in the future sounds delightful. When I was in high school I wanted to learn how to program so I could make my own MMORPG. I don't really fantasize about that anymore given my lack of commitment to humongous projects. Actually, there isn't really any particular project in mind motivating me. I like learning just to learn. Did anyone else start out this way and stick to it? Do you feel goals are necessary?

| Is there a way to automate things on an iPhone using Python? Posted: 21 Mar 2020 11:31 PM PDT I have some things to do on my iPhone which requires a lot of doing the same thing over and over again. Is there a way I can connect it with my laptop or something and automate these things? I am just beginning to learn Python from ATBS [link] [comments]  |
| Game Server Programming- where to start? Posted: 21 Mar 2020 07:13 PM PDT Hello everyone, I'm looking to learn server programming. My end goal is creating a multiplayer RTS game for mobile (using client/authoritative server architecture), but before I even start on that I figured I should just try to create a multiplayer pong. There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of information out there, or at least holding-your-hand type tutorials. I've read the theory of it all, about different architectures and online games work. I was wondering what you gents think should be the most basic starting point for someone who wants to completely understand web/game server programming and architecture from the ground up. I've read that creating a simple chat client/server is a good starting point for the fundamentals, and then from there you can expand it to host more and more complicated tasks for your server. My only worry for this is scalibility, such as creating multiple 'rooms' for matches to be happening simultaenously. I've also read about Amazon GameLift, but my worry for that is whether is too advanced for someone like myself- looking at their webpages, I don't understand a lot of what they're saying. And using a service that does a lot of stuff for me could actually be contradictory for learning what I need to learn. So my question is: what starting point do you recommend, and do you know of any good tutorial series or books that I can work through to get the fundamentals down? Or at least some kind of 'path' that I can follow which ends in me having the knowledge I need to make my game. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| New programmer in need of help calculating pi Posted: 21 Mar 2020 10:10 PM PDT Hi. I'm really new to coding/programming and recently I got asked this question: "Calculate pi using the given formula until the last term is 1!. Round your answer of pi to three decimal places" and I don't really know what to do. I know I should set some values to variables like the 2, the math.sqrt(2) and the fraction itself. Then I should use a while loop for until the last fraction is equal to 1 and then that answer must be rounded. The problem is that I just cannot do it no matter how many times I try. I am not sure what terms to set or how to get my loop to run properly. By the way, I am doing Python. I cannot add a picture with this post for some reason, but the formula I must use is: 2 * 2/sqrt(2) * 2/sqrt(2 + sqrt(2)) * 2/sqrt(2+sqrt(2 +sqrt(2))) ... sqrt = square root [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 12:12 AM PDT I always feel like I'm not good enough yet to start an internship or I won't be able to provide enough value to the company I intern at. I have learnt the basics of C, C++ ,Java and Python. But I'm not confident that I can start an internship yet. I have these questions in my mind. 1.) When do you know that you're ready to go for your first internship? 2.) I am also confused about who would provide an internship to a inexperienced beginner? [link] [comments]  |
| problem selecting from listview of multiple columns from sqlite database (android studio) Posted: 21 Mar 2020 10:46 PM PDT im having troubles selecting from my custom listview and getting the itemName from the sqlite database. The Log.d(TAG, "The name is" + itemName); is returning The name is mypackagename.ListItems@ece56a4. which is not the name so it always give me this Toast.makeText(ViewListContents.this, "No id associated with that name", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); [link] [comments]  |
| Move array item up or down array by one each time button(s) are pressed. Posted: 21 Mar 2020 10:17 PM PDT I have an array and two buttons. One button is called "Move up". The other one is called "Move Down". What I am trying to achieve is have a user select which item on the array they want to move and each time they click "Move Up" that item in the array moves its position up by one. The same but down when they click "Move Down". Moving the item up needs to stop once it hits the last item and it needs to stop when it hits the bottom too. I have been trying to find an example but all i find are ones that don't quite help to this point. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Explanation for the Spotify Web API Posted: 21 Mar 2020 07:54 PM PDT I spent the last week by trying to figure out the meaning of the time_signature's value on the audio analysis API, but I still don't understand it, someone here have some experience with this API and can explain me what is the meaning of time_signature's value?

| I know basic HTML but I feel like i'm not learning advanced HTML because I copy and paste a lot. Posted: 21 Mar 2020 09:57 PM PDT I have learned the basic of HTML, and I can create a pretty simple website with it. The only problem is that whenever I want to add something cool (e.g, blinking text), I find myself copy-pasting advanced code which I don't understand. I'm not learning this advanced HTML, I am just taking it from somewhere else without typing it out myself. Is this a bad thing? How can I actually understand the code that I am pasting into my own projects? Thanks. [link] [comments]  |
| International Bioinformatics Org EC Opportunity Posted: 21 Mar 2020 07:27 PM PDT Hi reddit, I'm currently part of an international organization (currently applying for nonprofit) called Helyx that distributes free bioinformatics education, works in research relating to biology/data analysis, and creates events relating to these topics. We currently have over 90 members with chapters in over 8 countries all over the world. If you're interested, you can become a chapter president or regional director simply by finding 1 chapter VP and 5 members to join you (doesn't have to be school-affiliated). We also work with sponsors/partners such as the Apollo Foundation and Spark Teen to create international events such as hackathons and create education opportunities for less fortunate kids. Please check out our website and join the discord if interested. Contact my email if you have any questions. Thanks!

| Posted: 22 Mar 2020 01:05 AM PDT forgive my rudimentary understanding of classes, but I was wondering if in this example, it would be possible to create a local variable (y), modify this variable, and pass it to a mian function with a pointer. Honestly I'm pretty tired right now so this might not make sense but I tried to keep this example simple because I'm just curious about the concept, and not a specfic line of code. I also may be confusing public and private, with the use of default arguments, but any help is super welcome [link] [comments]  |
| Error attempting to access database and pull from table. Posted: 22 Mar 2020 12:58 AM PDT Hi, so I have an sqlite database file which holds two tables: (Albums and Artists). Now, I have a method which is meant to return a list of Strings from after getting the data from the "Artists" table. But, when calling the method I am getting an error: "org.sqlite.SQLiteException: [SQLITE_ERROR] SQL error or missing database (no such table: Artists)". The table does exist so, I'm not sure the issue entirely. Could it be that the database file is not being connected to properly? The db file is contained within the projects folder so, would the dbUrl provided be appropriate? Before I was having an issue with a driver which said: no suitable driver found when attempting to have it automatically get the driver through the dbUrl so, I added the jdbc jar file to the libraries in my project and that seems to of fixed that issue.

| How can Improve my logical and algorithmic thinking? Posted: 21 Mar 2020 08:38 PM PDT I need to get better at creating efficient algorithms. Will I build this mindset if I keep doing problems on hackerrank? What else can I do? Is this something you can train or is it like a either you have it or you don't thing? [link] [comments]  |
| Is there any free python courses and what is the best ones? Posted: 22 Mar 2020 12:21 AM PDT I'm gonna learn python and I'm wondering what's the best course to take. I'm not a beginner with coding as I have a good understanding of c#. Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 21 Mar 2020 06:03 PM PDT Hello. Im tired of my life recently so i decided to learn some stuff. I made few tutorials and i thought im ok, time to get a job. That was a big mistake, when they gave me a task i just couldnt come up with a solution or even something. I wanna make some projects, something so i can learn how to think, solve problems, struggle with it etc. So i like SQL, coding a bit less but i dont hate it. I always used c++ in high school. 1.Do i need to use something else? 2.What software do i need?( free or paid ) 3.How do i fuse my code with database. [link] [comments]  |
| Has anyone developed a hobby that lets you practice while you do it? Posted: 21 Mar 2020 04:21 PM PDT I just started learning. Is there any fun way to spend my free time doing something that would help me develop my skills? It's not necessary for it to be fun but it wouldn't hurt if it was. [link] [comments]  |
| Just sharing. COVID-19: Take advantage of the hardtimes - turn water into some damn good wine Posted: 21 Mar 2020 08:03 PM PDT I am an international student in the U.S. and I have somewhat of the early access to the information of Coronavirus (even before it had the official name "COVID-19"), because my home country was right next to the virus' origin. I knew that it would be huge - I just did not know how huge it would be. I had never thought that one of the impacts of the virus would be closing down all of my school's activities. At first, I felt somewhat discouraged because closing all activities meant that there would no classes, gyms, or even normal daily human-to-human interactions. Since I am an international student, there is no going back because, you know, it means two things: 1) I will not be able to go back to the U.S. anymore, and 2) I will be considered a "possible virus carrier" in my home country. And so I stayed. But it was at that moment, I realized that there were plenty of things to do - things that I could not do while I was busy with others and have not had time to brainstorm. My pathway is that, I have a B.S. in Accounting, and moved up to M.S. in Computer Science because I believed that all knowledge in programming would help me tremendously when I applied and got into a Ph.D. program in Accounting. So this is the time that I could use to learn whatever I feel would be necessary for my pathway. One of the best things so far was Codecademy Pro became free for students until the end of this year - which was nuts for me. I spent the past week learning working on my projects, preparing for this semester and the new semester, and also learning how to code in the languages that I need (Java, Python, JavaScript, HTML and CSS, R, etc.). Link to my account is given here. I am just an intermediate Java programmer and a novice in other languages - but this is the golden time for me to learn and to prepare. If time and condition permits, I might be able to learn statistics and econometrics - or even piano, something that I dream of learning for the past 5 years (my piano is still at the corner of my rented apartment awaiting for me to learn and play). I just want to share my story to you so say that, stay healthy, positive, busy, and smart. There are plenty of things to do and to learn. You can turn this difficulty into a burden or an opportunity - it is your choice. I have read that many fellows here were affected by the incident - stay positive. There was a guy in Wuhan (the virus' origin) who got accepted into New York University just days before the outbreak begins. We are all affected by it somehow, more or less. However, we hold the keys of our own lives, so wash your hands more often, wear a mask, practice social distance, and think clearly. I doubt that I will ever meet anyone of you face to face, but I just want to say, good luck - make this your own opportunity. Ps: I will come back in a few days to show off my progress on Codecademy. =) [link] [comments]  |
| [BASH] Trying to use RegEx [0-9] in a grep query, but getting blank result bricking my program. Posted: 21 Mar 2020 07:46 PM PDT I'm in the middle of a school project to learn unix, we just got past RegExp and are on loops. According to our RegEx portion: grep [0-9] file should return words such as open1, test9, or arp2. Yet when I run the program I get nothing. Here's my code for reference: Now I have identical code below that also tests for capital [A-Z] & lowercase [a-z] letters as well, and they work fine, but the number one is holding me back.

| JavaFX setScene() is crashing my program. What am I doing wrong? Posted: 21 Mar 2020 07:37 PM PDT Hello all, I'm pretty new to java and am stuck trying using the setScene method to switch between scenes in javaFX. Every guide I've read says it should work but I must be missing something. I've been at it for five hours now but just cant see where I'm going wrong? This two scene app has a home and a form, I'm simply trying to navigate between the two scenes. I am trying to start with homeScene in the stage and then switch to formScene when button1 is clicked, however it just crashes whenever I click the button. I've tried declaring the button in different ways, I've tried starting with formScene and switching to homeScene, I've tried having them as separate methods and many other things but always it crashes when I try to set a new scene using .setScene() Woule anyone so kind to help me out and have a look as I'm at a dead end :/ paste.ofcode.org/D7TuWpxkFRuTNXug7cbwpF [link] [comments]  |
