| How to go from self-taught to full-time employment as a programmer? Posted: 10 Apr 2020 12:09 PM PDT I started learning programming late 2019. I'm a bit worried, because I know many companies frown upon self-taught programmers, at least in my country. I'm currently not working, so I've been building solid full fledged projects(aiming for 3 or 4) to show potential clients, so I can start freelancing and eventually land permanent employment. My reason for choosing the self-taught route is that I can't afford to study computer science or enroll into a Bootcamp. I would like some advice from self-taught programmers(web or mobile) who have landed full-time employment without cs degree or bootcamp. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Apr 2020 04:07 PM PDT Hi there. I'm a long time Ruby dev, and I suddenly have a lot of extra time on my hands thanks to the COVID-19 situation. I'm taking advantage of the time to work on some projects I've been interested in for a while as well as learn some new languages/frameworks. I decided that I would record myself working through the learning process. I'm building out a handful of real projects in ReactJS, Electron, Node, and Elixir. Since the languages are somewhat new to me, I'm talking through things as I learn them, and I think it should be relatively beginner friendly. If you follow along, you'll have some real, substantial projects to show off at the end. Everything is in pretty early stages right now though, so you're getting in at the beginning. If you want to follow along, I'm starting with a stock market tracking app in ReactJS. I'm putting out a few videos per day, so it's going to go pretty quick. Here's the playlist for that one: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjItgYqIzJ9VOBgwZ82D9kjQ_QtM5R4u5 If you hit a snag, I'll answer any questions you've got in the Youtube comments. I hope somebody finds this useful. Peace. [link] [comments]  |
| I think I'm gonna fail my grades. Posted: 10 Apr 2020 06:19 PM PDT I'm an IT student and I'm never worried about grades, but the problem is, in my college I can't carry any failed subjects. This period has been tough with quarantine, remote working and misscomunication between students and teachers. If I fail, I'm gonna be waiting the next year to return. I'm having my practices in a company and I like it but I'm not really sure if they're gonna hire me all this year as developer if I don't have my degree. I'm not really sure if I want an answer but I want to expres myself. Any words would be welcome tho. Must say I'm a little overwhelmed. I'm not from US, Canada or Europe where they give you oportunities without a degree. It would be awesome but, as things are going on today, it seems far away. [link] [comments]  |
| Is it a waste of time practicing leetcode type of questions and algorithms problems? Posted: 10 Apr 2020 08:55 PM PDT I do it mostly for fun instead of me playing video games. I'm still a beginner and in college and I'm not sure if they teach me bad habits or are just a waste of time. I like these smaller problems that doesn't require me creating a new project with a few classes etc. I find them entertaining even if they are hard. [link] [comments]  |
| Discord Server For Leetcode/Technical Interview Practice Posted: 10 Apr 2020 05:34 PM PDT Hey guys, I created a Discord server for collaboratively working through leetcode style algorithm problems and sharing resources. Staying motivated while grinding algos can be tough and I find going at it in a group helps me a lot. We're all very serious about becoming better programmers, and are a mix of current students, job seekers, and working software engineers. If you're also serious about getting better at technical interview questions and think you will benefit from a community, feel free to join. All skill levels welcome but ideally you already know the fundamentals of programming and are comfortable with a programming language of your choice. Here's the link: https://discord.gg/3EkdrE2 [link] [comments]  |
| Discrete mathematics study guide Posted: 10 Apr 2020 05:59 AM PDT Hey everyone, so I made a discrete mathematics study guide for dummies quite a while ago and worked on some improvements based on feedback. However, I realized, since my knowledge and skills are limited, that the study guide can greatly improve if competent people can contribute to it. Feel free to join the crowd-sourced discrete mathematics study guide project and pitch in your knowledge and skills. Here's a link to it. Fork the repository, make changes, and submit pull requests (Just like any other open-source projects) and for non-contributors, feel free to utilize the study guide for your benefit!

| I have started many things and haven't finished any Posted: 10 Apr 2020 10:06 PM PDT Are you guys like me? I have started so many courses and tutorials and can't seem to make up my mind on what to focus... Already went through C#, Python, JavaScript... Why is it so hard to focus and master only one thing? Is the grass always greener on the other side? The programming world is so overwhelming that it's very hard to choose something and go along with it... [link] [comments]  |

| Creating a list of lists using list comprehension in python Posted: 10 Apr 2020 08:14 PM PDT I need help creating a list of list using list comprehension that's a 3x3 and has the diagonal with all 0s. If anyone could help that would be great. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Apr 2020 07:08 PM PDT BackgroundAs a series that I've played and enjoyed ever since I was young, The Legend of Zelda will always have a special place in my heart. Two of my favorite games in the series are The Wind Waker and Ocarina of Time. As a college freshman that has moved back home due to quarantine and will most likely not take part in a summer internship, I've decided to pursue one of my long-term goals of recreating Ocarina of Time in the style of The Wind Waker. More specifically, I want to do so by creating a GameCube .iso file that I can play on the Dolphin Emulator. FeasibilityI guess this sort of begs the question: is this even possible? Based on my initial research, I've learned that it would be extremely difficult to reverse engineer The Wind Waker, or any Nintendo game for that matter. Furthermore, the amount of game design knowledge required would be immense (which I, unfortunately, have little to none of). I am willing to go to great lengths to accomplish this dream of mine, but I still have to be realistic. ResourcesRegardless of whether this is feasible, I still want to learn more! If you could send resources my way that helped you when starting out with video game design and programming, that would be much appreciated :) I couldn't find that many resources relating to my specific goal, so info related to GameCube/Dolphin/The Legend of Zelda is nice, but not required. Finally, if possible, I'd love to be able to reach out to you for any clarifying questions I have. Thank you so much! Personal Programming KnowledgeJust so you guys know where I'm at (and how much more I need to learn!):
P.S. If this is the wrong subreddit to post this kind of question, please let me know where to post instead! [link] [comments]  |

| Hangman function advice (Python) Posted: 10 Apr 2020 07:26 PM PDT I've started working on a hangman project, and I've completed the function for drawing the hangman. However, I feel like my code could be cut down further. I don't use Python often, but I feel like there's a shorter method. Here's the function: Any advice would be appreciated. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Apr 2020 07:25 PM PDT Sorry if that's confusing. To be 100% honest I don't fully understand what exactly is going wrong. I have a react app where I used a outdated and modified version of create-react-app supplied by my Bootcamp that I recently graduated. After getting the app up and running on github, I decided to tinker with animations. I installed react-spring and after a few days, got some basic animations going. Finally decided to deploy the app, so I ran the script, npm run deploy, which from what I understand, does a build and pushes it to gh-pages. When I ran , I encountered this error: ``` hangman-client@0.1.0 build /Users/Joe/SEI/projects/Hangman
npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE npm ERR! errno 1 npm ERR! hangman-client@0.1.0 build:
And this in my package So my best guess here, is that the outdated template I used uses an older version of babel-runtime, and react-springs uses a newer version, and that it only clashes when making a production build for some reason. I tried a package called babel-upgrade but it left it at 6.26 and didn't fix the problem. I found that create-react-app has a v2, and that all you need to do is update react-scripts in package... But this is a custom template, and I don't see it anywhere. This may be a dumb question, but I was so proud of figuring out these springs, can somebody please help me get my deployment working?

| Which of these 2 lines of code is better practise for creating a function? Posted: 10 Apr 2020 06:10 PM PDT Forgot to add language to title, this is for C++. Below I have 2 sources that do the exact same thing. I'm just not sure which one is better in the long term. Should I use a double that does all the calculations within the function and returns it to a variable outside the function or should I use the void that does all the calculations within the function and returns it to a variable also within the function and prints from there? I'm just trying to build good programming habits early so I don't get into trouble down the line where it really matters. Void function double function that does exact same thing: [link] [comments]  |
| How do you make a random number generator in assembly (x86)?? Posted: 10 Apr 2020 08:11 PM PDT Just a forewarning, I am very new to assembly and not really great with it. A random number generator that isn't really hard to understand would be super appreciated! So, I am working on my final project in assembly and am trying to simulate a small scale D&D (Dungeons and Dragons) fight. I have been desperately searching the internet for days trying to figure out how to get a random number generator to simulate my dice; values 1-20,1-8, and 1-4. I have found code for generating values 1-10, but can't figure out how to do it 1-20 and modify it to be any range I need it to be. When I have modified it, sometimes it spews out random characters like "?","=",">".. So I'm not 100% sure why it's doing that. Can anyone help me out? I have to have this done in three days and am struggling. Here is the code for the rng for values 1-10: random macro rVal mov ah,0h ; interrupts to get system time int 1ah ; CX:DX now hold number of clock ticks since midnight mov ax,dx xor dx,dx mov cx,6 div cx ; here dx contains the remainder of the division - from 0 to 9 add dx,1 mov rVal,dl ; call interrupt to display a value in DL endm [link] [comments]  |
| ELI5: In C 'for loop', why do we use another variable in initialization statement? (Code below) Posted: 10 Apr 2020 05:17 PM PDT I have started CS50 and am learning C. I have a doubt. I am building a program that asks for a number and then prints that many asterisks. In the initial statement in 'for' loop, why do we use "i"? Where does the system know what 'i' is? I am attaching below the source code. TLDR; for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) - In this code, how does the computer know what 'i' here stands for, when it has never been given a value? [link] [comments]  |
| [Java] Help fix the recursive method? Posted: 10 Apr 2020 05:21 PM PDT Currently, this works and prints all my nodes in the correct order (Left to Right) from the Binary Search Tree. Here is the current output: Which is great! But instead, I want to actually have this function return to the original toString() method instead of just printing to the console. Here is my current toString() method as well: I tried changing it to: but obviously that would end the recursion and not go through the rest of the Binary Search Tree. Any help would be appreciated, if you need more info, just let me know, THANKS! [link] [comments]  |

| Is there a reason why express.js use es5 instead of es6 out of the box? Posted: 10 Apr 2020 08:51 PM PDT Just wondering why that's the case. Especially since majority of es6 features are available in latest version of node. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Apr 2020 06:12 PM PDT I need help with my C program. I need to prompt the user for a title for data and output the title. Ex: Enter a title for the data: Number of Novels Authored You entered: Number of Novels Authored I also need to prompt the user for the headers of two columns of a table and then output the column headers. Ex: Enter the column 1 header: Author name You entered: Author name Enter the column 2 header: Number of novels You entered: Number of novels I also need to prompt the user for data points. Data points must be in this format: string, int. Store the information before the comma into a string variable and the information after the comma into an integer. The user will enter -1 when they have finished entering data points and the data points will be output. String components of the data points will be stored in an array of strings. Integer components of the data points will be stored in an array of integers. Ex: Enter a data point (-1 to stop input): Jane Austen, 6 Data string: Jane Austen Data integer: 6 I need to perform error checking for the data point entries. If any of the following errors occurs, output the appropriate error message and prompt again for a valid data point. Ex: Enter a data point (-1 to stop input): Ernest Hemingway 9 Error: No comma in string. Enter a data point (-1 to stop input): Ernest, Hemingway, 9 Error: Too many commas in input. Enter a data point (-1 to stop input): Ernest Hemingway, nine Error: Comma not followed by an integer. Enter a data point (-1 to stop input): Ernest Hemingway, 9 Data string: Ernest Hemingway Data integer: 9 I want to output the information in a formatted table. The title is right justified with a width of 33. Column 1 has a width of 20. Column 2 has a width of 23. Ex: Number of Novels Authored Author name | Number of novels -------------------------------------------- Jane Austen | 6 Charles Dickens | 20 Ernest Hemingway | 9 Jack Kerouac | 22 F. Scott Fitzgerald | 8 Mary Shelley | 7 Charlotte Bronte | 5 Mark Twain | 11 Agatha Christie | 73 Ian Flemming | 14 J.K. Rowling | 14 Stephen King | 54 Oscar Wilde | 1 The information will be output as a formatted histogram. Each name is right justified with a width of 20. Ex: Jane Austen ****** Charles Dickens ******************** Ernest Hemingway ********* Jack Kerouac ********************** F. Scott Fitzgerald ******** Mary Shelley ******* Charlotte Bronte ***** Mark Twain *********** Agatha Christie ************************************************************************* Ian Flemming ************** J.K. Rowling ************** Stephen King ****************************************************** Oscar Wilde * Here is my code: #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> int main(void) { char title[50]; char col1[50]; char col2[50]; int point[50]; char names[50][50] = {'\0'}; int count = 0; char dataPoint[50]; int commas = 0; //Variables for holding values int i = 0, j = 0, k = 0, p = 0, len; int intFound = 0; char integerValue[5] = ""; int commaAfterInt = 0; printf("Enter a title for the data:\n"); fgets (title, 50, stdin); printf("You entered: %s\n", title); printf("Enter the column 1 header:\n"); fgets (col1, 50, stdin); printf("You entered: %s\n", col1); /* Removing new line character at end */ len = strlen(col1); if (len > 0 && col1[len-1] == '\n') { //Placing null character col1[--len] = '\0'; } printf("Enter the column 2 header:\n"); fgets (col2, 50, stdin); printf("You entered: %s\n", col2); while (count < 50) { printf("Enter a data point (-1 to stop input):\n"); fgets (dataPoint, 50, stdin); if (atoi(dataPoint) == -1) { break; } commas = 0; i = 0; intFound = 0; strcpy(integerValue, ""); commaAfterInt = 0; while (dataPoint[i] != '\0') { if (dataPoint[i] == ',') { commas++; if (intFound == 1) { commaAfterInt = 1; } } else if (commas == 0) { names[count][i] = dataPoint[i]; } else if (isdigit(dataPoint[i])) { intFound = 1; for (j = 0; integerValue[j] != '\0'; j++); integerValue[j] = dataPoint[i]; integerValue[j + 1] = '\0'; } i++; } if (commas == 0) { printf("Error: No comma in string.\n\n"); } else if (commas > 1) { printf("Too many commas in input.\n\n"); } else if (commaAfterInt == 1) { printf("Comma not followed by an integer\n\n"); } else { point[count++] = atoi(integerValue); /* Extracting string from data point */ k = 0; p = 0; strcpy(names[count], ""); //Iterating over data point while(dataPoint[p] != ',') { //Copying char by char names[count][k] = dataPoint[p]; k++; p++; } //Placing String termination character names[count][k] = '\0'; names[count][k+1] = '\0'; printf("Data string: %s\n", names[count]); printf("Data integer: %d\n", point[count - 1]); } } printf("\n\t\t\tFORMATTED TABLE\n"); printf("\n %40s \n", title); printf("\n\t %-20s | %20s \n", col1, col2); printf(" \n -----------------------------------------------------\n"); i = 0; while (i < count) { printf("\n\t %s | %10d \n", names[i], point[i]); i++; } printf("\n\n\n\t\t\tFORMATTED HISTOGRAM\n"); i = 0; while (i < count) { printf("\n %s \t", names[i]); j = 0; while (j < point[i]) { printf("*"); j++; } printf("\n"); i++; } return 0; } [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 10 Apr 2020 04:08 PM PDT For background- I am a junior level Comp Sci major who is taking a web programming course. We are using MongoDB, Express, Vue.js, and Node. I am having trouble figuring out how these work together. I am unsure of which is client side and which is server side, and how the routes and scripts to run the server work. I know that is a lot, but I have many resources both from lecture, Youtube, and varying Github posts. For some reason, I just feel like those tell you what to do and don't explain why or how, leaving anything more than copying a mystery. I would like to understand so that I can apply the knowledge. If it is easier, I am available to video chat, discord, etc. Thank you in advance! [link] [comments]  |
