| What have you been working on recently? [October 10, 2020] Posted: 10 Oct 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:

| A motivational post if you're thinking of giving up. Posted: 10 Oct 2020 12:52 PM PDT A while ago I posted about getting into the App Store at 43 years of age. Well.. My app got over 12,000 down loads this week. I have spent a little while responding to some feedback that I received via the reviews. The app is free so its not life changing in any way but the feeling I got when I first saw those numbers I amazing and it was never about the money. Almost 13,000 people now use my app. I was about to give up on it and let it fade into app history, but now I have a renewed lease on keeping it updated and working on another app idea that I have. Keep up the hard work, you never know how much success you can miss out on if you don't try. [link] [comments]  |
| How to learn cybersecurity/hacking by yourself Posted: 10 Oct 2020 12:43 PM PDT I am currently in high school and am very interested in cybersecurity/hacking, however, I have no idea where to start. I know Python basics, but that's about it. I'd like to have an as deep as possible understanding so I think first learning computer science topics might be good (I found the website teachyourselfcs.com, don't know if it is good for this though). I was also recommended to do CTFs (which sound very fun and interesting), but as said I want to have a deep understanding so I think first learning CS is important, instead of just learning through trial and error from the ground up (obviously I'll do a lot of trial and error once I know CS, if you recommend me to learn CS first, but not without any previous knowledge, which is probably more effective). Under no circumstance do I want to be a script kiddie, because as said I want to understand everything deeply (I prefer to write things myself instead of using already existing tools, as I exactly know how everything works and can also adjust it). So, how can I learn cybersecurity/hacking by myself? What resources should I use? What topics should I learn? What concepts should I understand? What programming languages to learn? How to write malware? How to find exploits? Do I need to know about hardware (ex. electrical engineering) to be a good hacker/cybersecurity engineer? etc, etc. Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| How can I improve my problem solving skills in programming Posted: 10 Oct 2020 11:40 AM PDT Basically I'm a computer Engineering student took a few programming classes already and I still have a hard time with problem solving skills. sometimes I can solve problems when I ask for a hint from professor or TA. what are the good ways to improve problem solving skills? any tips are appreciated.

| Posted: 10 Oct 2020 10:23 PM PDT hello everyone, I am a beginner and I recently ran into a game "css diner" and that was so helpful and fun for learning and recalling css selectors. Is there any fun game like this for HTML? [link] [comments]  |
| I'm struggling, and that's ok. Posted: 10 Oct 2020 12:27 PM PDT Background: I've never touched programming before. Back when iWeb was around I dragged and dropped things, but anything that looked like "<html...> was mumbo jumbo to me. I never needed to learn because it was not my field. That changed 3 months ago when it became obvious my old job was never going to be the same again thanks to the pandemic. I've been learning from resources online about html and CSS, and have a decent grasp of that. JavaScript is the biggest learning curve I've had to deal with in a long time. I will watch a tutorial or 50, search stack overflow, and still I'm banging my head against the wall. Once I feel I understand one concept, I struggle to make it work with another, like functions and loops. It's difficult for me to understand the logic behind it. Every time something happens (or doesn't) I just want to know why? Why did that do that? It's overwhelming. However, I know I am learning. It will click for me, if I give it time. The frustration is there because that is what learning feels like. Starting this new journey is exciting and scary, but one day it will all click and I'll be able to code like a competent person and I cannot wait to create. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Oct 2020 11:36 PM PDT So idk about other countries but in mine we have final tests that basically determen are we going to college thatvwe want or not and basically determens your future. So i started learning python too soon and at this time i should study for the finals and the problem is my college will teach me C language (if i get in it) and i dont want to abandon all the progress i've made with python and i genually like it. TL;DR need to study for finals, dont have enough time to learn python properly and I'm clueless. [link] [comments]  |
| Prove that-:Space complexity of depth first search=bm+1 Posted: 10 Oct 2020 11:34 PM PDT Only matheamtically, I hate abstract proofs. I have read 72+ hrs on this topic, which don't even comes for 1 marks in our examination. Trying to understand this, countless headaches has been come. Can anyone help me to figure this out, like how this is derived mathematically. I know we all are beginners in this subreddit, but if we try to push ourselves a little bit, could we do it? I am really stressed. I have read almost all books. So, please help me to derive it. [link] [comments]  |
| Completely Ruined my Programming Environment... Posted: 10 Oct 2020 04:01 PM PDT I forgot exactly what I was doing, but it had something to do with Bash RC file and PATH. This was months ago I was trying to solve some problem with this and enter some command that got tons of upvotes in Stack Overflow in my terminal that seemed to wipe a ton of things out. Pretty much everything code related in terms of environment and possibly some files. I am now using zsh. No commands are recognized that I had. npm, yarn, node, etc. It is all gone. Now I want to program again, and my environment is still completely dead. Problem is I have no idea what I did to ruin it. So the solution to just reinstall everything? Even with npm and node reinstalled, I am getting errors that are probably related to me wiping everything out before. So even if I do reinstall everything, I know I kinda screwed up my environment. Currently learning tailwind CSS and getting this error and followed all the solutions recommended and its not working. Is there anyway to figure out what I did? [link] [comments]  |
| Are closure factories good stand ins for small independent classes? Posted: 10 Oct 2020 11:18 PM PDT Javascript example: Seems to be a cleaner version of a class without inheritance. Do you guys think this is a good replacement for a small class with no aspirations to extend? Why or why not? At the moment I lean towards converting some small classes on my portfolio projects ahead of interviewing. I like the elegance at first glance. But I'm open to counter arguments (I don't see this pattern used that often. Classes are used everywhere). [link] [comments]  |
| PSEUDOCODE VERIFICATION PLEASE! ���� Posted: 10 Oct 2020 10:43 PM PDT Design pseudocode for a program that will permit a user to store exactly 32 numbers in an array. Create an array big enough to hold the numbers and store each number in the array as its entered. Be sure to PROMPT the user for each number before it is entered. Use a loop to get each number from the user . *THIS IS WHAT I GOT. CAN YOU VERIFY IF ITS CORRECT OR WHAT NEEDS EDITING?" __________Thank you_______________________ start Declarations arraySLot = 0 while arraySLot (less than symbol)SIZE endwhile arraySLot = 0 while arraySLot (less than symbol)SIZE endwhile stop [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Oct 2020 10:33 PM PDT I notice that I answer every coding interview question the same way... and most successful interviewees do this too. It's no big secret, but it might be helpful for beginners and students stuck on classwork:
I wrote up a longer explanation here, with examples: https://medium.com/@doomgoober/an-algorithm-for-coding-algorithms-6675451d43f9 . Frankly, this process is really tedious and I honestly don't code this way most of the time. But when I have a tricky problem and I absolutely must get the algorithm right (during an exam or interview) this slow and steady approach always gets me an answer... not necessarily the ideal answer but an answer that works (I usually have to optimize afterwards.)

| I am taking both c# and java in the same semester, bad idea? Posted: 10 Oct 2020 10:30 PM PDT I am a third year computer science student, I've taken C/C++ & data structures and was wondering if taking these two together could be a bad idea? Apologies if this has been asked before [link] [comments]  |
| Can this be done purely with HTML/CSS/JS? Posted: 10 Oct 2020 10:12 PM PDT I stumbled upon a designer's portfolio site today and was kind of mesmerized by her 'About' page, which features these really cool 3D-lookin' boxes. Check it out: https://www.moragmyerscough.com/about I looked at the code and was a little disappointed to discover that it's 'just' built around some strategic images -- I was hoping to steal the basic HTML/CSS behind it and repurpose it for my own projects. So that got me thinking: is it possible achieve the same effect with HTML/CSS/JS? I know CSS's box-shadow properties can do a lot of things but I don't know if they could be stretched this far. If anyone knows how to pull this off, I'd love to see it! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Oct 2020 10:10 PM PDT Hi guys, I'm about to start in the programming world. As the title says, I'm using a commom laptop with W10, is it really mandatory to use Linux/Ubuntu to study and practice? I've tried Virtual Machine but it's so slow. So idk if I try study in Windows or maybe dual-boot to study and play. Any tips? [link] [comments]  |
| Changing careers(data science) Posted: 10 Oct 2020 09:26 PM PDT Hey guys, I just recently got laid off from work and collecting unemployment. Changing career has been my goal for a few years now, so I'm taking my chances now since I have this free time in my hands. In order for me to change career I made 2 choices. Choice 1 was to go back to school and switch major to applied mathematics(starts next year). And choice 2 is to apply for a boot camp(FlatIron School) and graduate from there by next year. Yeah, having a degree sounds cool and all but obtaining that degree and finding a job is like few years from now. As for the boot camp, according to FlatIron school, they will help you find a job(so that's what they say) once you finished the 5 months of boot camp. I would like to change jobs by next year, would not like to go back to the industry i was in. Should i pick one of these choices or go with both? If i do both choices, financially is it wise? Ps. I was working in hospitality industry, got laid off due to the pandemic. This kind of shook me up how easy i can lose my job. Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Book Recommendations for away from the computer. Posted: 10 Oct 2020 09:25 PM PDT I'm currently learning some python and I'm looking for books that I can read away from the computer. Ideally something that was example light to be able to digest it without typing it into a terminal. [link] [comments]  |
| Failed My First Interview After A Year Of Study. Posted: 10 Oct 2020 09:20 AM PDT As the title suggests, today is not a great day. For context, it was an online coding exam large company (not FAANG) consisting of three problems through Hackerrank for an entry-level position. I could complete none of them. At all. Instead of seeking pity, though, I would like to ask what people on this sub do and use to study and become more than just 'conversationally' competent with coding. Project oriented learning was, clearly, not helpful in the slightest for learning the keyboard gymnastics required for preliminary interviews. I've used Leetcode and Cracking the Coding Interview as supplementary resources. Thank you in advance for any insight. [link] [comments]  |
| One thing I learned in system development Posted: 10 Oct 2020 08:36 PM PDT is that nothing is ever final. In developing programs and applications, there is always a need for improvements, quality-of-life updates, or issues to be fixed. The question is when the developer is going to do something about it; what he's going to do to fix it. There is no such thing as "final" or "good enough". It's either dead, or still in development. :This could also apply to you my fellow redditors. [link] [comments]  |
| Are there books that discuss programming logic and human brain logic? Posted: 10 Oct 2020 12:58 PM PDT I want books that discuss and compare High level programming language logic and human brain logic. Like how a human sees something and how a computer sees something. [link] [comments]  |
| I am a construction laborer who wants to learn Computer Science. Should I go to college? Posted: 10 Oct 2020 04:35 PM PDT My goal is to someday get out of construction and create my own indie game company in the future. I am not great at math, and my problem-solving skills are weak, but I have a strong urgency to learn. My problem is that I find it difficult to learn on my own. I am thinking that having a guided path would help tremendously. What would you suggest? [link] [comments]  |
| Any advice for a complete beginner looking to get into programming? Posted: 10 Oct 2020 08:13 PM PDT I've got no background whatsoever on Programming/Computer science but i want to learn how to code and get into web developing. Got any advice/tips on how or where to start? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Oct 2020 04:27 PM PDT So I want to learn programming for a long time now, but all the websites I've tried where really bad. I have a few questions. 1. I have a bad laptop, so do you need good hardware to program? 2. What's the best way to learn programming? What's the best language to start learning? And I would like a forum or something like that where i can ask my question if I need help with something. I have really much time so I could spend 2-4 hours a day learning to program. Would be great to see some comments! [link] [comments]  |
| Need help writing a script which will loop until the correct user and pass has been created Posted: 10 Oct 2020 08:12 PM PDT So I've been trying to get my head around this one, I'm trying to write a code which will loop until the correct user and pass is entered (admin) and (pass) Both outputs come out, using System.IO; using System; class Program { static void Main() { string username = "admin"; string password = "pass"; string user; string pass; do } [link] [comments]  |
