| What have you been working on recently? [July 11, 2020] Posted: 11 Jul 2020 09:04 AM PDT What have you been working on recently? Feel free to share updates on projects you're working on, brag about any major milestones you've hit, grouse about a challenge you've ran into recently... Any sort of "progress report" is fair game! A few requests:

| I got my first internship as a web developer! Posted: 11 Jul 2020 08:23 AM PDT It really feels like a dream come true! On October 2019 I finished my bachelors in Geoinformatics engineering. Had almost zero knowledge about programming. I didn't know where to start! Started with theory, Java fundamentals,DB, Java EE, and then I started doing a small project implementing CRUD Operations. During the learning phase I applied for a intern position and I made it through the first interview,but not in the second technical interview. I knew that it was early for me to apply, but I felt really pessimistic, and until yesterday I had no hope for a web dev position. During these past few months, I was just learning new things and implementing into my small project. But I was into that loophole, where whenever I did something right , I felt that I could become Steve Jobs, and whenever I could fix a bug, I felt like I was the dumbest person in the world. Ups and extreme downs. Because the Covid situation, in my country (eastern europe) , intership are non-existent, and yeah that was another downside for me. But just last week I read an internship opportunity in a good company. I applied but with no hope. For my surprise, I got a call from the company. I was going to be tested for my logical/maths skills, and I got a 80%! Next interview went great, I was really confident and chill! And that was the story of how I got my first internship! I am happy and hoping for the best! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 11 Jul 2020 10:16 PM PDT ...to Quincy Larson of FreeCodeCamp for creating such a fantastic place to learn programming. I would have given up a long time back if it had not been for FCC. Thank you so much, it is been a great tool to learn. And so selfless, it is free to learn. [link] [comments]  |
| Is it common to know the name of the person who created the programming language? Posted: 11 Jul 2020 07:50 PM PDT Asking because I came across a Twitter thread where someone dismissed a potential hire with 17 years of wev development experience but was seen as a liar because he didn't know who "Tim Berners-Lee" was. A lot of people in the thread agreed that you should know the name to the point of calling them liars or inexperienced if they didn't have that knowledge. As someone who is currently studying programming questions I was just wondering if this is something I should be looking into this as well. I don't recall when being introduced to new languages in my Univeristy my profs stating who created each language. Maybe it happened once or twice at the beginning but when a class required to just jump into a language there was never a history lesson on the language. My uni didn't teach web dev and I learned that on my own on the side so am shocked to see that I should have this knowledge as well. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 11 Jul 2020 04:14 PM PDT Also can you recommend what topics should i cover after completing this course and some projects as i have decent knowledge of DSA and want to do some ML/AI related project in python. [link] [comments]  |
| Is The Odin Project the best way for me to get started if I want to become a self-taught programmer? Posted: 11 Jul 2020 10:02 PM PDT I have no education or experience in programming but I've always found it fascinating. It always seemed like an extremely powerful and intelligent tool to me and something I'd love to learn. My ultimate goal is to land an entry level dev job and grow within the industry. It's kind of a daunting prospect though, especially since I know almost nothing about coding from a practical standpoint. It does seem like Odin Project is very well regarded on this sub in terms of giving you the foundation you need - is this still true in 2020? Are there any other free courses I should consider or should I start with TOP and gradually branch out to other courses? How does Odin compare to other popular resources like FreeCodeCamp or App Academy Open? Ideally, I'd like to learn enough to build some projects of my own and create a portfolio to try and get an interview. Eventually, obviously - I'm aware that it'll be a long and arduous process. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments]  |
| How should I practice programming? Posted: 11 Jul 2020 05:48 PM PDT So I going to be starting my sophomore year of college, in late August month and I want to practice programming in the meantime since I haven't done much since I finished the school year in May and I don't have anything to do. I currently know Java and started learning Python in school this year. All I'm really looking to do is practicing and improve my programming skills. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

| How to make a map of the entire United States (including Alaska and Hawaii) using Python? Posted: 11 Jul 2020 06:42 PM PDT I am using Folium and Pandas to make my map (following this Basic Point map guide, inputting lat and lon coords and outputting a map. However, I have some issues with what currently goes on.
My question is, how can I make a map that looks somewhat like this, a map of the United States with Hawaii and Alaska in a corner? Any help is appreciated! [link] [comments]  |
| Learn Web Developement without watching tutorials? Posted: 11 Jul 2020 08:48 PM PDT I am trying to learn web dev, and I've completed HTML and CSS part from Angela Yu's course. I spent most of my time completing my Machine learning learning course and online college lectures. I really have to push myself to watch web dev tutorials in the time left, which becomes a bit frustrating. Is there some way I can learn without watching tutorials and by reading concise theory and by actually completing tasks? For a rough example, I learnt linux and Linux commands not by watching tutorials, but by googling and reading stuff online and then actually experimenting with commands. In short, I do not want to learn WebDev by watching video tutorials as I already watch Machine learning tutorials and online college lectures in the day. [link] [comments]  |
| Web Developer vs Software Developer Posted: 11 Jul 2020 08:38 PM PDT What are the basic differences? What skills you need to be a Software Developer? [link] [comments]  |
| Why do Hackathons say "no experience needed"? Posted: 12 Jul 2020 12:18 AM PDT Or more generally: how do hackathons work? I have super minimal programming knowledge and was wondering if "no experience needed" means that there are coding lessons/workshops? and if not, how do you compete w/o dragging down your team? thank you!

| Does anyone have tips on how I can give high-school kids a taste of programming? Posted: 12 Jul 2020 12:15 AM PDT I am planning on using some of my time to volunteer at some rural schools near where I grew up to help teach the kids some programming skills. Very likely this will be a single 1 hour class with about 10 kids somewhere in the range of 13-17 years old. Obviously they're not going to learn programming in that time. But I would like to be able to get them excited about it in the hope that they take it upon themselves to learn more. I have thought that maybe I would setup something in Unreal or Unity for them to play with. Like an FPS where I show them to adjust their characters speed or jump height etc. So they can instantly see how much things change, each change making the "game" slightly more fun. I would like to leave them with a big list of resources for them to utilise. I might also setup a website and forum for them to access to get ongoing help with their projects. Anyway, does anyone have ideas on something else I could do in the hour to achieve the above? And if anyone has resources related to this (outside of the FAQ/wiki), specifically around children in this age range, it would help. It's likely most of these kids won't have computers at home, so will only have access to shit school PCs. If they do have Internet it's likely to be very slow almost dial-up speeds. These are pretty disadvantaged kids. If it matters at all this will be rural Australia. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 11 Jul 2020 11:45 PM PDT https://github.com/mnemocron/TelegramChatStats/blob/master/README.md I've never been on Github and I don't have any of the required packages installed. A step by step beginner tutorial would be much appreciated [link] [comments]  |
| How do I put 2 HTML5 Canvases next to each other? Posted: 11 Jul 2020 11:45 PM PDT I've looked at Stackoverflow and some other subreddits, however I could not find a clear answer there. Does anybody know how? [link] [comments]  |
| What couse on udemy you recomend for learning Full stack web development Posted: 11 Jul 2020 07:58 PM PDT i'll appreciate all your opinions and comments, i'm just another victim of this new situation and now i have to learn new skills to find a job, and i think is the perfect time to start with learn programming.

| What is one very important programming/computer science concept you did not learn in school? Posted: 11 Jul 2020 07:43 PM PDT I trust that most schools teach you a fair bit about software development and computer science, but as with many fields, there are probably a lot of things you don't learn until you actually start working, or even years into your career. What are a few examples of these? [link] [comments]  |
| STRUGGLING to get started with data structures and algorithms. PLEASE HELP. Posted: 11 Jul 2020 11:17 PM PDT I've been trying to learn data structures and algorithms online to prepare for coding interviews for companies like Google, Microsoft and the like for campus placements in India. I've gone through hundreds of articles and tutorials but I just cannot solve problems on my own either due to lack of conceptual clarity and/or lack of practice (I think they might be related) . I feel like my concepts in C++ (my primary language) are shaky so I thought I should back up a little and go through those first (should I ?) .I've finished 2 years of college already and have gotten through courses on the same subjects feeling like I've learnt everything on the surface but nothing well. I guess at this point I'm just asking to be spoon-fed all the exact topics and exact resources (both theory and practice questions ) for C++, Data Structures and Algorithms that I have to go through right from scratch all the way to being interview ready. I really don't know if the courses on algorithms on websites like Coursera go in depth.I can't afford to waste more time so a detailed roadmap would be wonderful. [link] [comments]  |
| Can someone provide a hyper-realistic example of a class in object-oriented programming? Posted: 11 Jul 2020 07:23 PM PDT I am having some trouble imagining where a class would be used in OOP. Of course, I understand how they work and their functions, but I think to *really* understand it I need a really realistic example. Thanks for any help you can provide! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 11 Jul 2020 11:07 PM PDT I've seen so many books/videos/courses try to bring OOP skills to beginner programmers, and most beginners are actually confused by all these OOP concepts. That's because OOP presented to a beginner too early, is actually a problem, rather than a solution. The bottom line is, you don't need OOP to write programs, so theoretically you can actually become a pretty skilled programmer without knowing OOP at all. But in practice, OOP is needed for two primary reasons, first, most frameworks have an OOP architecture so if you want to use certain frameworks, you most likely need OOP, secondly, when the code base for a project is getting big (like thousands of lines) OOP can help to manage the complexity. So, if a beginner are even having problem with writing general console programs (e.g. a news feed program that pulls data from an API), OOP is likely to be perceived as useless. Since if one can't write programs, then one can't write complex programs, then there isn't any complexity need to be managed in the first place. After searching "why use OOP" on google and read up a few articles, if you still don't get it empathically, then it's a sign that it's too early for you to pick up OOP (and that's not a death sentence), instead you should focus on your fundamental programming techniques and problem solving skills. Turns out, prioritization is very important in learning programming. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 11 Jul 2020 05:06 PM PDT [Apologies for bad title, can't edit it now] Hello all, I learned C++ this year so I am a bit new. I have some experience in other languages though, and recently I put work into my first big project. It's a minecraft like clone if that helps narrow it down. I've chosen not to use a game engine and instead just something to render with, I don't plan on being a game dev, but anyway, please take a look. I was honestly wondering if one could critique my code so I can just have some learning experiences. It's a big project, so I will narrow it down to some important files I tried to take use of pointers, mostly references, because they allow me to optimize my code, but I feel like that makes me wonder if I am overusing them. I'm definitely am and am not a fan of OOP (mostly a fan), and it really allows me to reuse my code a lot. To add, should I worry about my code and focus more on just writing code, I feel like worrying might cause me to slow down on code and thinking about refactoring code. None of this code has really undergone heavy refactoring by the way, so there are a few parts that I lazily just commented out or something, but honestly I'm not all too worried about code style, mostly good practices and good re-usability.

| Online Python course for college freshman proficient in Java Posted: 11 Jul 2020 10:50 PM PDT I am an incoming college freshman. I did AP Computer Science(java) in high school, but I want to get into learning Python since it is a much more applicable language to data science and most fields in general. Do any of you suggest any online courses that would help me learn Python with relative ease in a month? I prefer free courses, but paid is fine as long it's worth it. [link] [comments]  |
| Recommendations for sources to learn machine learning and game development Posted: 11 Jul 2020 10:49 PM PDT I've learned the basics of python and i want to hopefully create some simple games while implementing AI. Are there some good courses out there I can take to learn for either one? [link] [comments]  |
| Regarding Jitbit macro recorder Posted: 11 Jul 2020 10:37 PM PDT Hey guys, I need help on this certain macro program. My macro loop consists of buttons being held down but when the macro is aborted halfway through, the buttons are still being held down instead of it being up. Is there a way I can add a IF line that if the macro program is aborted, the keys will be in its UP state rather than still being pressed down? [link] [comments]  |
| Problem installing cx_Freeze on python 3.8 Posted: 11 Jul 2020 10:05 PM PDT I installed it in my cmd prompt without downloading the module, it installed like it was downloaded but it wouldn't run in pycharm so I downloaded it separately with no difference. Cmd prompt continues to show its installed. I've installed other modules this way with no issues. Any idea what I'm missing/doing wrong? Edit: Im dumb. I forgot to restart Pycharm [link] [comments]  |
