| Posted: 10 Dec 2020 06:40 AM PST I'm a self-learning programming student looking to get hired. That's it. I just need money to survive and build a life for myself and my family. Life has been really hard on me and I'm willing to learn everything I need to to perform both at industry standard (or possibly even at a over-performance level.) I consider myself intelligent and capable (I speak four languages English, Spanish, Chinese, and Indonesian. This is just to show my linguistic mental capabilities.) But as far as programming goes I don't really know jack (maybe a little HTML and CSS). Does anyone have any book recommendations for learning hire-able coding skills? I am leaning towards learning Python and SQL first since I am interested in databases and algorithms and those two seem like flexible coding languages that any company will find useful, but I understand some companies have proprietary languages they use within their businesses that I should probably pick up too. (GO, Ruby, etc.,) I was also gifted a free 3 month membership to CodeAcademy Pro because I lost my job because of COVID and they were giving out free memberships to people who were affected by the pandemic and am looking to extract as much knowledge from that program as possible. Is there any advice or resource tools an experienced programmer could give me, a self-learning programmer, so I could one day get hired as a Junior Developer and get paid a decent salary and have decent health insurance for once in my damn life? I also live in Seattle, WA near a lot of big tech companies too if that matters at all! (everything is Work-At-Home now so IDK if that matters!) Edit: Wow! Thanks for all the buzz and conversation! I'm trying to read, learn and reply to your messages, but I'm currently at work delivering holiday packages across the city of Seattle! (I've been delivering packages for work ever since I've gotten laid off!) [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Dec 2020 05:30 PM PST Well im fairly new to programming and wanted some advice. [link] [comments]  |
| What are the best books that teach Data Structures and Algorithms? Posted: 10 Dec 2020 08:20 PM PST I'm looking for books that are recommended by professional and experienced programmers. Will I need a video tutorial as a supplement to these books? I was watching some video tutorials but I learn easier from text because I can't focus watching a video for a longer period of time.

| I just had my first(hopefully of many) "It worked!!" moment Posted: 10 Dec 2020 06:52 PM PST I am learning python through codecademy.com and I just finished my first project that actually required debugging. It feels great to see a program that you wrote work as intended. [link] [comments]  |
| How do you understand recursion? Posted: 10 Dec 2020 10:04 PM PST Hello I am new to programming and recently got stuck i. recursion. Many videos on youtube seems to show only Fibonacci problems which sucks. When i try to apply the approach again i ran into problems like , tower of hanoi, finding unique patterns in a grid, or finding subsequence of a strings, doing merge sort , quick sort,etc. I just found myself always looking at tutorials and get stuck in tutorial hell. I mean how do you determine a base case? like i know you have to simplify the problem itself but how do you know what mathematical equations to use people in tutorials just jump straight to "heres the pseudo write it down and youre done without explaining the approach on how they get that formula in the first place". I feel like im out of place, like when i learn iteration it clicks one time and i can easily solve other problems after that. Now i cant seem to do it with recursion. Any sources or tips that someone can give me to understand recursion systematically? [link] [comments]  |
| At What Point is it Reasonable to Learn a New Language? Posted: 10 Dec 2020 11:49 PM PST I've been advised to stick to learning on language thoroughly. I'd like to ask, is there any loose guidelines I could get on when you would consider yourself proficient in a language? At this point in my Java journey some examples of the highest level concepts I'm comfortable using are interfaces, lambas, the swing library, and reading/writing to files of different file types, (txt, json, yml). Is there any more concepts that I should be solid at before I can confidently say I'm ready to move on without risking hurting myself by not honing in on one language solidly at first?

| Posted: 10 Dec 2020 11:26 PM PST I've been learning Java in school for 3 months now and I kinda feel like I'm lost even though I learned a lot during this school quarter. I remember my professor assigned a lab where we had to use String methods to change our name to some weird stuff. I had a hard time doing it that day. However, I found a similar project in my textbook about two days ago and did it in about 20 minutes and it was a huge boost in confidence and made me realize that I actually learned something. I feel like more than learning code, I'm lacking in the critical thinking. What do you recommend I should be doing to improve that. I've stuck with my textbook's projects during the break but when school starts again I don't want to just code during class and I really want to learn coding as I eventually want to start making my own games or land an internship soon so I can get real experience. I would appreciate some tips or what you think are good websites to practice! Thank you! [link] [comments]  |
| I have no clue how to code tic tac toe Posted: 10 Dec 2020 11:15 PM PST Hello I've came to a complete stop with this tic-tac-toe project my brain can't seem to come up with any steps or solutions to get this project done I've started to get the user to select between player one or player as a human player or bot, but I can't seem to figure that out. I don't know any way how to get the JavaScript portion of this project started. please help? [link] [comments]  |
| Does a void method call count as an expression in Java? Posted: 10 Dec 2020 11:12 PM PST In this Java docs tutorial: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/nutsandbolts/expressions.html System.out.println(), which is a void method call does not count as an expression, but in this link from the specs: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se7/html/jls-15.html#:~:text=The%20Java%20programming%20language%20guarantees,rely%20crucially%20on%20this%20specification It is said that an expression can be something that evaluates to nothing (void). This leads to my question and confusion about if a void method call would count as an expression or not in Java? What is the reasoning behind it as well?od call would count as an expression or not in Java? What is the reasoning behind it as well? [link] [comments]  |
| How to get started in web development and website designing? Posted: 10 Dec 2020 10:50 PM PST So, since its gonna be the end of the year in a few weeks, I have decided i wanted to learn web development and web designing. This is mainly because, I want to get started in the freelancing career in the future and I Believe this is a rewarding career. However, the problem is that I know nothing about nothing. I don't know where to start, what to learn, resources (both paid and free) or anything. So, I would very much appreciate it if you guys can give me some advices here
Thank you so much in advance ❤️ [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Dec 2020 10:19 PM PST Here's one that I can't figure out. I'm making a little video game website for school using the RAWG games API. I have checkboxes at the top of the show page for the game that a user searches for. A user will be logged in. They ideally be able to check a separate box for if they "want" the game, "own" the game, and/or "beat" the game. Then I want to save the data so I can display the 3 collections of want, beat and owned games on the user's profile. I can't figure out how to properly use this data to display the games in their correct categories on the user profile. If that makes sense, any help would be appreciated, thanks! Ideally the data would be accessed like this: let beatGames = user.games.filter (game => game.beat === true) Here are my tables and associations. Using a Rails backend: create_table "favorites", force: :cascade do |t| class Favorite < ApplicationRecord create_table "games", force: :cascade do |t| class Game < ApplicationRecord create_table "users", force: :cascade do |t| class User < ApplicationRecord [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Dec 2020 07:35 PM PST Hi! Basically I have an excel spreadsheet with a bunch of contacts from my job. I filter them to find a contact for a certain city and for a certain trade of work that way I can reach someone we have worked with in the past instead of googling and cold calling new potential partners. How can I turn this raw data into a program or website where I can type the city and the trade of work to extract their contact information? I also want my co workers to enter contacts as well that way we can find contacts faster instead of googling or trying to recall from memory or cold call. I imagine it being like Yelp where it will show a map and pins down the place I'm looking for and offer a radius and show the other contacts that we entered in the area. Should I be learning SQL? I don't code at all but I'm really driven to create this because I'm tired of my company doing things in a very complicated fashion and maybe this can turn into a start up for other construction companies. I learn very quick so please don't tell me that it can't be done. We have over 3000 contacts and we keep adding more everyday so we definitely need some sort of software to organize and extract the necessary data. [link] [comments]  |
| Zero experience programming, but I have a project for the motivation! Where to get started? Posted: 10 Dec 2020 09:37 PM PST Hey all! As per title, zero experience programming. However, I do have a project I want to undertake and am willing to learn. I want to take an existing IOS LED app that controls my led light strips and modify the types of patterns/lighting it can do. Right now, all this app can do functionality wise is change the color of the LED's and simple light patterns like changing colors every second. However, I wanted to add different patterns, such as rainbow waves, specific color changing sequences, color chasing, etc. I want to modify the existing app to add these different patterns. Is this a feasible goal and something I could learn to do? [link] [comments]  |
| Challenging projects suggestion Posted: 10 Dec 2020 09:35 PM PST Hi Everyone, I've learnt html and css and will be starting with js soon. Could you please suggest some challenging projects in - 1) Using html and css 2) Using html, css and js Please suggest projects to do for both that would help me in getting the nuances of all three topics. Thank you :) [link] [comments]  |
| Struggling with coding questions on bit manipulation Posted: 10 Dec 2020 09:04 PM PST Hi everyone, I've been preparing for my coding interviews on bit manipulation topics. I understand how operators like << >> & | ~ ^ change the bits, but the resources I find are all on how they work mechanically. I barely find resources on why and when you would apply an operator over the other, in the context of coding interviews. Bit shifting operators like << or >> seem the most obvious (e.g. questions related to power of 2), but I'm having trouble understanding the type of situations to use & | ^ ~ Any help would be greatly appreciated!

| Got an interview! How can I respond to areas I lack? Posted: 10 Dec 2020 07:27 AM PST I got an interview for a web dev position (only my second interview during 6 months of unemployment since being laid off) that I feel 75% confident with required skills, but I don't have much of a "understanding and experience with .NET and C# skills". This web dev position isn't a lead, it "supports the needs of multiple teams, systems and products reporting to the Lead Application Developer", so it sounds appropriate for my skills (let's just call them "Junior"; I am familiar with the Web dev full stack fundamentals including MERN), but I don't want to say the wrong thing in my interview when asked about areas I'm not familiar with. What would be the best way to respond about my inexperience with certain web technologies? [link] [comments]  |
| Programing exercises on mobile? Posted: 10 Dec 2020 08:38 PM PST I am in-between places to live right now due to roommates leases not longing up so I'm stuck without a computer. Are there any kind of programing exercises or problems I can do on my phone to keep in practice. (iPhone btw) I want to see if there is anything other than just watching random YouTube videos that I can do. I am basically a beginner but want to keep doing things involving code even without a computer. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 11 Dec 2020 12:13 AM PST I know about (vanilla) TypeScript and Angular, but I would appreciate an overview, maybe including relative popularity or how good a framework is :) Also can you use TypeScript in any framework based on JS? (React, Vue.js, etc.) [link] [comments]  |
| On what basis can you evaluate flutter and swift? Performance and build time? Posted: 11 Dec 2020 12:13 AM PST Hello, I am a high school student writing an essay comparing the app development process on flutter and swift. However, I am stuck on the metrics on how I would be able to compare the 2. Intuitively, performance and build time occur to me. However, as I am not an experienced programmer by any means, I do not what other feature people look at when deciding to use one language over the other(In this case flutter and dart vs swift and its own SDKs, in order to help me build my argument. Also, it would help me a lot if you guys could recommend a few reading materials to me. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments]  |
| Beginner interested in cryptography etc. Posted: 10 Dec 2020 08:16 PM PST Hello r/learnprogramming. I'm interested in learning about the entire world of cryptography. I have some experience in coding and programming. I haven't developed any major projects yet, but I know I want to do something related to cryptography and maybe cybersecurity. A udemy course or maybe a YouTube series recommendation would be amazing. Mainly, I want to understand these topics deeply. I'm in it for the long haul, and I really want to get behind how these things work instead of speed-learning to get a job, even though there's nothing wrong with that. My preferred language of choice would be C++, but I also know Python, and other C-like languages. Thanks in advance for any replies. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 11 Dec 2020 12:02 AM PST Today I finally decided to start TOP and I'm really excited, but I'm using windows and as I saw there they were asking for Unix based os, I have downloaded node.js several days ago and it seemed to work fine, so can I continue with it or I have to set up a virtual machine or change the operating system?

| Is there a way to download an instagram group chat? Posted: 10 Dec 2020 11:53 PM PST Not a dm or ig data because I already tried that and it doesnt include group chat. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Dec 2020 11:50 PM PST Title says it all. Im close to my associate of science and I will be transferring to a major uni instead of a local uni which I am In now. My goal is SAE or CSAE as said before Astronautical side of AE. [link] [comments]  |
