35 year old. Told I am too old to learn to code. Posted: 24 Jul 2020 07:14 PM PDT I have always had an interest in websites and building an online business, that is where I first got hooked teaching myself to code. I started with HTML, CSS, JavaScript and now Python. [link] [comments] |
I finally sat down and learned RegEx lookarounds. Here's a cheat sheet I made. Posted: 24 Jul 2020 01:36 AM PDT Overall, quite a pain in the butt! I haven't found a website that teaches these well yet. I ended up doing exercises from multiple different websites. I'm finally getting a handle on them. Anyway, here's a cheat sheet I made to help me remember lookarounds (and some other RegEx stuff I haven't memorized yet). Enjoy. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 24 Jul 2020 01:56 PM PDT Hello! I've been going through some of the courses at FreeCodeCamp and I would say I have a good handle on how to make a decent website with HTML and CSS. I've also studied JavaScript with FCC (I also previously spent several months learning Java so I have the fundamentals of programming down). This may be a stupid question, but how do I actually connect JavaScript to my HTML and CSS? For some reason I just do not understand this. I feel like I've learned JavaScript in isolation from HTML/CSS and now I'm really struggling to get how it all comes together. I understand the purpose of everything, (HTML is your content, CSS is how it looks, JS is how it behaves) but I just don't know how to connect it. Any resources are greatly appreciated!!

How do you even make meaningful projects? Posted: 24 Jul 2020 06:37 PM PDT Everyone always says "make a portfolio!" "Make interesting projects you can show others and get a job!" "Contribute to opensource software!" But what does this actually entail? Let's be honest here no one really gives a crap if you solved some basic mathematics problems with Python that tens of thousands have already solved... Likewise no one cares if you make some easy things off of those "Practice project ideas" lists. So what should you create? If you're not a professional developer or some have some sort of quantitative background it's not possible to create something half-interesting. All the good/useful have already been well implemented by someone else, and the ones that haven't or can be vastly improved upon... require ACTUAL skills, knowledge and experience (which you do not have given you're a beginner/intermediate). So what should i do? It seems the only real way to be productive in this sphere is to get a job. Should you really put simple things you've done? Is the idea just to show you have a basic understanding or is it truly to impress an employer by having some amazing piece of work? [link] [comments] |
Helpful Tips for What to do After You Finish that Python Course Posted: 24 Jul 2020 05:40 PM PDT As I sought to learn Python and SQL I was uncertain about whether I was headed in the right direction. Even worse, I often felt massive impostor syndrome. I was often scared to tell established software engineers and data scientists what I was learning. Five years later, I still feel that impostor syndrome, but I've learned a few helpful things along the way. I recently wrote down a few tips on what to do after you've taken a free programming course or online coding tutorial. My goal was help individuals who are learning to code feel more certain they're headed in the right direction. It was published by The Startup on Medium...thought I'd pass it along! https://medium.com/swlh/what-nobody-tells-you-about-building-a-technical-skill-set-b0b64ae7d064 [link] [comments] |
Posted: 24 Jul 2020 06:09 PM PDT I've been looking at tutorials and articles all day on how to create it but I can't seem to figure out how to program it. I already have everything I need, a engine and stuff but I just can't figure out how Tetris works. Like how do I store the pieces? How do I rotate them? I'm just confused on how to do it. Can someone give me some sort of hint or something on how to program it? Thanks [link] [comments] |
Posted: 24 Jul 2020 05:14 PM PDT Hello all, I am a beginner in learning front end web development. I am currently going through html, css, and JavaScript. I am also using the Odin project to structure my learning. I am curious if I complete the full stack javascript course on Odin if that is enough to get a job. I appreciate all the help I get in advanced! [link] [comments] |
Storing chat messages in Database Posted: 24 Jul 2020 08:55 PM PDT Hi, I'm creating an e-commerce project but I'm not sure how to store the chat messages between users (from buyer to seller). Like, is a chat bubble is a table attribute along with timestamps ?_? How do WhatsApp store their chat messages? I'm not sure how to depict this in the ERD. Thank you [link] [comments] |

Help with leetcode Coin Change problem? Posted: 24 Jul 2020 08:55 PM PDT My program is stopping prematurely on one of the test cases. I am subtracting each denomination from amount until it goes under zero. That way, I can find out how many of each coin to use. But for some reason for this particular test case my for loop doesnt finish and it goes straight to returning -1?? [link] [comments] |
Can't install pip on linux running on a chromebook. Posted: 25 Jul 2020 12:05 AM PDT Hey so i have this chromebook and I just turned on the linux beta for it to run some python scripts. I did some googling and apparently linux only works fully on a intel cpu? this chromebook only has an amd a4 cpu. whenever I try to install pip I get multiple errors: when i run : sudo apt install python3-pip, I get multiple errors of : could not resolve host: deb.debian.org it recommends running sudo apt-get update, upon which i get the another could not resolve host: aptllvm.org. as well as other errors that cannot resolve host to various other urls. im not sure how to go about solving these errors so any pointers would help thank you!

Posted: 24 Jul 2020 06:05 PM PDT Hello, I've been into programming for about a year now, and I've managed to learn Python. I really want to move on to languages like Java and C++ and even Fortran because why not. However, I lack motivation, and I find myself easily distracted from them. Has anyone got any tips for motivating myself to learn, and to keep on learning for the long term? Thanks [link] [comments] |
Posted: 25 Jul 2020 12:00 AM PDT I am going to college soon and recently invested about $1000 in a MacBook. I am planning to do some coding in college and I have no prior experience. Would a PC have been a better buy for doing so? Or is Mac in general better for coding? I read somewhere that it was, but some friends of mine have been telling me that a Windows PC would've been a better buy for coding. In case this information helps, I will be going into a major related to economics, computer science, and mathematics. I've been having some anxiety that I wasted my money on a MacBook instead of getting a PC, so could someone please clarify this for me? Thanks for your time! [link] [comments] |
Posted: 24 Jul 2020 11:50 PM PDT I am using putty to log into a VM and running a python script there. The python script outputs continuous updates on the status of the script. My internet got disconnected, and the putty shell did not reconnect after it disconnected. I logged back into the VM, but I do not see the python script output anymore. I believe that the python script is still running on the VM. I am wondering how to re-establish the script output to the shell again. I believe that I have to somehow identify the process related to the script. I typed
and got a list of running processes, though I'm not sure which one refers to my python script. The virtual machine is Linux, on GCP if that makes a difference. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 24 Jul 2020 11:39 PM PDT So I started my journey to code when I was 13, I was fascinated by it and learnt html, css made websites and was delighted with my new skills. Then I learned to python the hard way and decided to major in CS. After 2 years of my undergrad I feel I am forcing myself when I write code. I am average at problem solving , DS , Algorithms and apparently all top tech companies require good knowledge of these and core CS skills. I want to change my career domain to finance, consulting by doing an MBA. Does it happen? Your thoughts please. [link] [comments] |
Does every different keyboard have their own way of getting detected while typing? Posted: 24 Jul 2020 11:30 PM PDT I am not super new to coding but I was just wondering, is there anyway while coding to detect a specific keyboard(say I have a Logitech keyboard and an older different model) so I can program the keys on the older different models keys to be different functions? To be specific, I have been streaming and I would like to have a stream deck without having to spend the 100-250$ on it. I have seen specific things and had a few ideas under the circumstance aka making an app on the iPhone that went to a server that pressed a button on my keyboard then I realized that I could not freely code iOS apps due to the fact that I am on a windows computer and I don't know the coding language of Swift. So then I thought of the idea that I could remap the coding of one of my keyboards so that I can use that as a way to change scenes and stuff like that. [link] [comments] |
Can anyone suggest a good free online version of mysql? Posted: 24 Jul 2020 11:23 PM PDT My laptop doesn't support mysql since it's a decade old and I need mysql to submit my assignment for my college in Database Management Systems Subject. [link] [comments] |
Flutter or Ionic given my circumstance? Posted: 24 Jul 2020 10:46 PM PDT I want to develop a new app and my 2 choices are Flutter or Ionic I am a 2nd year computer science student and we never do any html, css or javascript. Little php and sql. I have been doing web design on my own and I just finished the basics. Ionic is based off Javascript html and css I heard flutter is similar to Android studio. I have used Android studio for one of my projects and I am okay with it. Much better with android studio compared to web dev. Problem is. Should I do it in Ionic for it being Javascript and building upon my skills that are in demand Or should I use flutter? I want to use flutfer but I feel itll be a lot longer to code with compared to ionic and also dart as a language isn't popular so I think my best bet is to go with ionic for the better learning experience as well. Whats your guys thoughts? Ik im posting this on the r/flutterDev but I wasn't really sure where else to go. [link] [comments] |
Who else is finds recursion difficult (at the low-level) ? Posted: 24 Jul 2020 10:40 PM PDT Beginner programmer here (CS Student), interested in Assembly lang. Having problems with recursion in assembly and handling the stack. I tried drawing out the stack to keep of it, but this gets tedious fast! The control flow just confuses the heck out of me and I'm pushing and popping the wrong values on the stack. It took me hours to get a factorial function right, and I'm stuck with the fibonacci function. What do you guys do to keep track of the stack (w/o any high level options). Why I'm doing this? to understand recursion, which I just learned I don't really understand. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 24 Jul 2020 06:33 PM PDT I recently started Python. I was learning the basics. For loops, lists, strings, basic stuff. Seem to getting the hang of it. But I was wondering if I should've studied Data Structures and algorithms before checking out Python. Does it have any advantages or disadvantages starting with DS and Algos or Python? In which cases are D and Algos understanding needed and when not? [link] [comments] |

How Does The hasNext Method in Java know when a line ends? Posted: 24 Jul 2020 10:10 PM PDT I'm learning how to open text files in Java, and then print out the data in them. I watched a tutorial on this, and in that, the guy made a while loop and the condition of the loop was that it should keep reading data from the text file until there was no data left. He used the hasNext() method. So with the code down below, it will read a text file that has text written in lines, and then output it. So if your text file has 3 lines for example, the loop will iterate 3 times, and then display the 3 lines down in Java. Here is my question - How does the loop know how many times to iterate? How does it know when a line ends (in the original text file) and that's where its supposed to start from again? Because from what I understand, isn't the hasNext() method only figuring out if there is data left in the file, regardless of whether or not that data is in the same line or a separate line?
