| Don't let others define programming for you... Posted: 12 Dec 2020 06:41 PM PST As a dev with a little bit of experience I just wanted to hop in here and leave some of my thoughts behind for others... The internet can be a terrible place if you let it - much like the Dementors from Harry Potter, some of these social sites can suck the excitement and happiness right out of you. So, be careful what you subscribe to and be careful how much weight you give it. Maybe someday all of this negativity and hatred will go away. I suppose if the pink slime from that Ghostbusters movie were a thing - we'd be in deep trouble by now. To me programming is a tool, not a language. I don't see myself as talking to a computer, I can't think in any programming syntax, at least not in any way I think in an actual language. Don't let people tell you what a good programmer is or what a bad programmer is - define yourself. Find out what you are good at, find out what you struggle at. And spend your time honing the skills you want to improve. No sacrifice, no victory. I'm not good at coding puzzles, but I have fun with them when I feel like it. Still - in the years that I've been programming I haven't ran in to a problem I couldn't figure out a way to solve. And I don't suppose I'll ever work for a "FAANG" company, and hell, with that acronym I'm not sure I'd want to. Maybe I'll give someone a little bit of motivation - if not well, the only thing I can say is a long time ago I gave up, and while I probably shouldn't have it is what it is, I have no regrets. I am now a developer. This is where I wanted to be, this is where I was meant to be. And I hope you can say the same no matter where you are on your journey. [link] [comments]  |
| Self taught programmers, when did you start applying for jobs? Posted: 12 Dec 2020 09:29 AM PST I'm a couple of months and have been working on simple projects but am enjoying it. How did you decide it was time to start applying and what happened to those first applications? [link] [comments]  |
| How were GUI applications were developed earlier using C? Posted: 12 Dec 2020 06:28 AM PST First thing I am a Python programmer(started out with C but switched to python). My friend has a collegge project where he has to develop Management System(Library,Airlines etc.) using C. Although he has been told to build a console application but he decided to build a GUI application just for showing off😅. So to help him out I was researching on libraries in C to build GUI applications and I found out that GTK+ is a preffered solution but it is more a toolkit than just a library. In python we have Tkinter which is wrapper around TCL/Tk, but C doesn't seem to have anything like that. I was wondering that how were GUI applications developed earlier using C when there were no frameworks like GTK+ to support. I know that using those old methods nowadays would be time consuming but just out of pure curiosity I wanted to know if there was any library back then. [link] [comments]  |

| I don't know if this is for me Posted: 12 Dec 2020 09:21 PM PST I'm not a CS major but I'm taking a Javascript 1 course to see if this is for me. I don't know if this is how I am supposed to experience programming but I don't know if it's because of my professor or if it's just me. My professor does not do office hours, no weekly lectures, barely responded to emails regarding questions, and graded assignments weeks later with no feedback on what I am doing wrong. I felt like I was just by myself learning through his weekly readings and then struggling to complete assignments. I'm trying to complete my final project right now which is creating a webpage consisting of everything I learned. I spent all week trying to figure out how to put everything together and I feel so lost. I have a high grade in the class but I feel like I don't deserve it. I enjoyed doing the projects and felt satisfied after completing them but felt like I spent way to much time trying to figure things out by myself. Is this how it is supposed to be?

| Got an AAS in Web Dev and Design. Then got the job... Posted: 12 Dec 2020 07:11 PM PST Here I am a year an a half later into my career as a "Associate Software Engineer" and I feel like I'm still at the very beginning. Forgive me for venting and please delete if this is not the right platform for this. I got my associate's and completed a 9 month internship. Three months of which we're unpaid and then got hired. A couple months later Covid-19 hit and we went remote. I loved it at first, but I quickly realized I had so many questions to ask. Yet most of my coworkers could easily dodge me on Teams. Now I'm constantly faced with work I simple have no idea how to complete. I excel at most UI work I'm assigned, but I struggle with the backend stuff. Mainly Java based stuff I have no formal training in. Is it common to feel so lost this far into my career. Thank you to anyone that offers their advice. I hope to re-motivate myself an acquire the skills needed to do my job, but more than just the job start enjoying my work again. I loved it when it started and I love it even more when I have that ah-ha moment! [link] [comments]  |
| Quick story of first programming experiment and my first little project! Posted: 12 Dec 2020 08:45 AM PST Hi everyone, Here is the short story of how I decided to try and learn programming by myself, and how I finally came up with my first small project. I'm really new to programming, I have never had any kind of lesson related to coding and actually, a year and a half ago, I didn't even know what HTML was… But it somehow aroused my curiosity to find out that I could actually create games just by writing lines of text on a document. So with the help of tutorials on youtube, I coded a snake game and a « breakout » game in javascript (when I say I coded them, more like I just copied what was shown on the video, and at first, I really didn't have any idea of what I was doing)… Then after watching these two tutorials and after getting familiar with the really « basics » of javascript, I thought I knew enough to code the next GTA, so I made my first attempt at coding my own game: a Tetris game. I soon gave up cause that was already too difficult (though I must say I got surprisingly far)… I kept my chin up and started a new, easier project : a Mastermind game, and after many weeks if not months, I finished it! It's really basic, it's really ugly and not very smooth, and I'm convinced that what took me several weeks (I only have time to give it a few hours once in a while) would have taken for some you a couple of hours if not less. BUT IT WORKS! And I'm very proud of it cause it's the first project I finished entirely by myself (with the help of W3school though), but hey, I did create a game just by writing lines of text after all! I'd be very honored if you guys went to take a look at it => https://github.com/Nit2544/Mastermind.git. I know it will seem laughable for most of you (maybe all of you ?) but I'd be very pleased to receive all kinds of advice and suggestions :) I accept all kinds of negative feedbacks but please make it constructive so it can actually help me! I am now starting to work on some sort of « artificial intelligence » that would use probabilities to find the combination of colors in the most effective and quick way possible, and then allow players to try and beat that AI. But damn that's hard, it gets me tearing my hair out! [link] [comments]  |
| what did you automated with programming to get things done? Posted: 12 Dec 2020 06:16 PM PST i wonder how programmers automate the process to get things done in short time, especially for things that can repeat each time, any suggestions please? thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Intro to REST architecture concepts Posted: 12 Dec 2020 07:53 PM PST "REST" API architecture has become somewhat of a buzzword in software development. This post covers REST constraints, resources, representation selection, hypermedia, and HTTP examples. It starts in Roy Fielding's dissertation chapter "Representational State Transfer (REST)". https://danmartensen.svbtle.com/exploring-rest-api-architecture [link] [comments]  |

| What are some books which can help build programming logic ? Posted: 12 Dec 2020 09:43 PM PST I can only draw star patterns. would like to develop my programming logic. Suggest some books which can help me build the logic skills. [link] [comments]  |
| Anyone could help to read and go throw the pseudocode with me? Posted: 12 Dec 2020 11:30 PM PST I am doing a homework question and it confused me when I try to read the pseudocode. *We apply Test2 to the input value 1. What is the printed output? The output is 4,3,2,1. I have having difficulty to figure it out about when I should do the "print" statement. This is my logic: So the initial value of count is 1, obviously it is not 5, then apply the procedure Test2 to the new value of count, 2, which is the count + 1. At this time the count is 2 which is not 5, then apply Test2 procedure again to the value of 3 which is the previous count 2 + 1. Now the count is not 5, so again, Test2 procedure with count 4 (which is the 3+1). This count is not 5, so we do it again. This time the count is 5 which doesn't fit the if statement, then it's out. When do I print? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 12 Dec 2020 08:29 PM PST I've been pretty interested in getting insight on how companies use django to power their apps. On top of that list is Instagram and it's gotten ms into looking at blogs, writeups, articles that try to explain how Instagram develops their product. My big question is, does Instagram use DRF with django to make calls to their backend? Or maybe they use pure django, possibly some custom made solution. If anyone has some insight on their process I would love to hear it. [link] [comments]  |
| How to draw the pseudo-3D effect in raycasting? Posted: 13 Dec 2020 12:14 AM PST Hey everyone, I'm working on a small ray-casting application. I've got the actual raycasting part to work (i.e. the top-down with the rays firing and colliding with the nearest wall). The issue is that I can't seem to understand how to actually draw the pseudo-3D effect that it creates. Here is what I have so far: I understand the x coordinate, and width of the rectangle (should be 1), but I can't seem to understand how the y coordinate or the height are computed. Can anyone help? Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| So O(2n) reduces to O(n) etc etc and like whatabout O (n * n-1) ? Posted: 12 Dec 2020 08:22 PM PST I cannot think off the top of my head a function that would be O (n * n-1) but it's feasible. And how I understand it, that would reduce to O(n) because it's not a full n2 ? Or is there like a breaking point? I mean, I guess n * log(n) is not O(n) and is not labelled such. So when do you start to describe the additional complexity that's not a full n2 ? At 3n? 99n? (1/2 n)n? [link] [comments]  |
| Code2K — Middle/High School Beginner Hackathon Posted: 12 Dec 2020 06:08 PM PST Hey r/learnprograming! I know you probably don't like ads, so I'll keep it short. My name is Oliver and I'm involved with a nonprofit organization called the Project Code Foundation that promotes CS exploration among middle and high schoolers across the US. This winter, we'll be running a beginner-focused hackathon for middle and high school students from January 8–10, 2021. Our theme for this hackathon is "Discover, Learn, Create." Throughout the hackathon, we'll have numerous workshops where you'll be able to explore different things, such as creating websites, developing Discord bots, or even programming AI to play simple games. We'll guide you through the process of learning these things, and by the end of the hackathon, you'll have (hopefully) created your very own project you can be proud of. In addition to workshops, we'll have experienced high school & college mentors available throughout the hackathon who can help you out, and guest speaker events from people in the industry. Whether you already know how to code or not, we'll, have something for you. In fact, if you don't know how to code yet, this is a perfect opportunity to dive into this exciting world. If you're a little more advanced already, don't worry! Our mentors that can help you move into deeper topics. For more details, a tentative schedule, and the registration link, please visit https://code2k.org/. Thank you, and hope to see you there if you're interested! Please let me know if you have any questions. [link] [comments]  |
| Any Activities or Projects to try in Programming? Posted: 13 Dec 2020 12:03 AM PST Im new to programming and right now I am studying python. I tried studying other languages too such as C++ and Java. So far Python really caught my attention since it was a simple language. I know the basics of python and now I want to know what projects I can do in Python. I would also love to try new modules [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 12 Dec 2020 11:58 AM PST I would say the app is complex, the ui could definitely use some work. ive heard the paperwork and stuff is really time consuming and confusing. what changes should I make to my app to ensure that it can get published? and how long would this process take, months? also since this is my first time doing smth like this im kind of confused since I didnt code on Xcode [link] [comments]  |
| Interpreters that function without an Intermediate Representation? Posted: 12 Dec 2020 11:41 PM PST I was reading the page about interpreters on wikipedia and one particular section caught my eye: "An interpreter generally uses one of the following strategies for program execution:
Early versions of Lisp programming language and minicomputer and microcomputer BASIC dialects would be examples of the first type." I know that an example of the third one would be Java or C#, and I understand what the second sentence means too. But the first one in particular intrigued me, is it even possible to have an interpreter that executes parsed code directly with an intermediate representation? I've searched around for quite a while but got no answers, and although the article mentions the early Lisp and BASIC interpreters as examples of interpreters without IRs, I haven't been able to find anything after googling Lisp and BASIC either [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 12 Dec 2020 07:55 PM PST Hello . I wanted to ask if I can make good money freelancing by only doing online python courses . Also do tell me what kind of projects to professional developer's get . Like are they told what the program should do and then they code or do they debug and stuff like that . [link] [comments]  |
| What Gift Card API does Mistplay use? Posted: 12 Dec 2020 11:40 PM PST In case you're wondering, Mistplay is an Android app that rewards users with points for playing games - that they can spend on gift cards: https://support.mistplay.com/hc/article_attachments/360058667014/20200225_162401.jpg I want to build an app that can give me gift card codes on demand to reward users with. So I am curious how someone like Mistplay would be able to get gift card codes like in the above picture? [link] [comments]  |
| Web App developers, when would parallel programming and concurrent programming show their use? Posted: 12 Dec 2020 07:40 PM PST What the title says. I'm about to start learning these two so best to know when they actually show their use. [link] [comments]  |
