    Anyone got a coding job with education outside of university/collage?

    Posted: 16 Jan 2021 08:34 PM PST

    I'm a student just about to go into university for economics but I really want to also do cyber security/coding. So I'm thinking of learning coding from online and without university courses which I've heard is hard but possible to get a job with. Basically, I'm trying to say is there anyone like this and with a job right now? If yes, how much work did it take and is it hard to find jobs? I've went through linked jobs for coding and most ask for degree in coding so idk it gives me the vibe that this choice is unrealistic.

    Posted: 16 Jan 2021 01:37 AM PST

    Im currently a 2nd year student of CS & Cognitive Sciences BS.c , and soon entering a semester break, due to corona i won't have much to do during said break

    And i was wondering what skills i can learn during a few days/weeks to boost the resume and my skills as a programmer, considering i know python, java & R, and basic algorithm's & data structures.

    A list of computer science courses with video lectures

    Posted: 16 Jan 2021 11:03 AM PST

    I am a Junior in college and was wondering how important it is for jobs to see you are doing coding stuff in your free time?

    Posted: 16 Jan 2021 07:20 AM PST

    I'm going to graduate in spring 22 and I do not really code in my free time. In general I know that potentially puts me behind others both in knowledge and in ranking for jobs but is it a necessity to be doing things on the side?

    Benefits of a Master's Degree in Computer Science

    Posted: 16 Jan 2021 05:01 PM PST

    Hello, I'm currently a sophomore CS student, and as I've been planning the rest of my course track to graduate with a BS, I've been thinking more and more about a Master's Degree. I know a lot of other CS students who have brushed this thought off because of the still fairly high salaries and not wanting to incur any more debt.

    I have a few questions about the possible benefits and set backs of pursuing this degree.

    1. Is it worth the debt? I'm very fortunate to be coming from a public school district where a private scholarship foundation pays every graduates undergraduate tuition. So with working over every break and with family help, I should be graduating with no debt. The programs I have been looking at would put me back around 40k if I can work to sustain myself outside of class. When I was very young, my family had financial issues, and the thought of taking out loans is terrifying to me even though I know it is common for most people.
    2. Would I miss out on important industry experience? Technology is fast paced, and a large part of me wants to get working and learning how to work with a team ASAP.
    3. Does the degree really lead to more advanced opportunities? Obviously employers like to see it, but is it really that much more of an edge over other developers who took the time to learn the material on their own?
    4. Should I wait to see if a company will pay for the education? I know many other types of engineers whose employers paid for their graduate education, but I'm not sure how common that is in the realm of computer science.

    tl;dr: I'm afraid of wasting time and money on a master's program and am wondering if any of you have seen the benefits.

    I'm trying to learn C++ but I don't know what to do.

    Posted: 17 Jan 2021 12:17 AM PST

    I've been watching videos and reading about C++, I watched this video and have I'm half way trough learncpp.com , I don't have problems with the concepts or the logic, however, they don't provide with any real exercises and I don't know what could I do next.

    So far I have made some small and simple programs, for example, calculate the prime factors of a number, approximate integrals, getting a Fibonacci sequence, etc.

    I'm really interested in games, operating systems and computer security so I would appreciate any recommendations on what could I read or where could I get some ideas for things to do.

    Are you supposed to memorize algorithms/data structures?

    Posted: 16 Jan 2021 02:19 PM PST

    Second year computer science student.

    I just finished a class on algorithms/data structures and did fairly well in the course. Majority of my assignments were returned with great feedback and I feel extremely comfortable understanding the content and reading through the code and visualizing what is happening (hope that makes sense).

    I have an extremely detailed notebook that I've compiled all of my notes into from my foundation course and will repeatedly refer to it when coding.

    My concern is if this would translate well into the real world, or even for interviews. Should I be memorizing my code? I couldn't perform a mergesort on command without my notebook, but I can definitely explain the method behind how it works.

    Is HackerRank worth being involved in if you want a job?

    Posted: 16 Jan 2021 10:53 AM PST

    Or should I devote my time to projects instead? I like the gameification of the site and have answered 30+ so far of the practice questions but really wondering if it is worth my time. Do employers look at your rank or is it just based off of the tournaments? Have any of you recieved offers from this site?

    Web Scraping to a small text document or PDF

    Posted: 16 Jan 2021 04:56 PM PST

    My company uses a salesforce platform to enter account information and account files. Is there a resource for me to learn to scrape the data from the account file in a specific order into a text file (web scraping)? Basically, once i search for the account file, all the information is converted into a simple text file where the information is setup to follow my spreadsheet columns. There's multiple pages i have to go back and forth within the account file and having a text doc with all the relevant info would be easier for me to input and cross reference.

    How do I properly calculate this time complexity?

    Posted: 16 Jan 2021 10:25 PM PST

    I'm examining this code as preparation for my test and I'm having some problems figuring out what is the correct time complexity:

    a = 1; while (a < n) { b = 1; while (b < a^2) b++; a = a*2; } 

    The values for a are as follows :

    1, 2, 4, 8, ... , 2^(logn) = n 

    Therefore we have log n iterations for the outer loop.

    In every nested loop, there are a^2 iterations, so basically what I've come up with is:

    T(n) = 1 + 4 + 16 + 64 + ... + (2^logn)^2 

    I'm having problems finding the general term of this series and therefore getting to a final result. (maybe due to being completely off in my calculations though)

    Would appreciate any help, thank you.

    Is there a super easy way to send an e-mail from Linux Terminal?

    Posted: 17 Jan 2021 12:02 AM PST

    Hello,

    I'm MB. A very nice and polite guy.

    Is there a super easy way to send an e-mail from Linux Terminal?

    I have tried a lot of packages like mutt or pnuck or pnock or whatever they are called but they are all so complicated and not sharp enough. I want something with a slick CLI, programmable and very fast to get started.

    Anyone knows of a tool?

    How to create a website for reporting problems in a city or town? Link in the description.

    Posted: 16 Jan 2021 12:14 PM PST

    I've been wanting to do this for a while and all the solutions I've tried are complicated, involving several tools that require little coding but that at the end of the day result in something poorly designed and overcomplicated (which makes it really tedious to replicate). I've been learning JS for a year now but I feel I'm nowhere close to what's needed for a webpage like this and have no clue on how to get there. I recently discovered ESRI's Citizen Reporter but it's not exactly what I'm looking for.

    Questions about hiring a programmer (NOT a job posting)

    Posted: 16 Jan 2021 10:43 PM PST

    Hello lovely programmers. I know a tiny bit of programming but there's a project I want to do for which I am actually interested in potentially hiring a programmer. However, I have some questions and I'm not sure where to post them. Please let me know if I'm in the wrong sub and where else I might be able to find some answers.

    Basically, since I'm just one person wanting to hire another person to essentially write an app for me... how much would that typically cost (I know there's probably quite a range)?

    Can I pay them to write it and still market and sell the app myself?

    How should I "vet" someone I'm looking at hiring for the project?

    Where is a good place to look to hire someone?

    Is there anything else I should know before attempting this? TIA!!

    I’m failing learning web development

    Posted: 16 Jan 2021 11:17 AM PST

    So I struggle to build apps, If I look at tutorial or code on stackoverflow in general I understand it. But I almost always copy and paste code, is this normal? My experience is 3 months now. Im going to a course and now my homework is to build a weather app in vanilla js, but I have no ideea how to do it. I don't truly understand apis. My app should display weather, a map on google and another button to display the forecast for 5 days.

    RISC - V Fibonacci Sequence

    We need to implement the fibonacci function using RISC - V, so that f(0) = 0 ,
    f(1) = 1, ..., up to f(47).
    My output matches everything up to 46. But when i try to calculate f(47) i get: -1323752223

    Here's a picture of the Output: Output

    is there some sort of Overflow because i get a negative Integer value? Where should i look into to try and fix the error?

    How do I fix this GUI issue

    Posted: 16 Jan 2021 06:23 PM PST

    I wrote the GUI in java but I don't think that is the issue, basically every time I run my program the GUI shows up but the buttons and label don't show, it's just an empty gray box. I have to physically scale the GUI (click and drag the corner of the GUI to change the size slightly) only then does the buttons and labels appear.

    To be clear my GUI is already big enough to show the contents.

    Would anyone be interested in my notes on the C Language?

    Posted: 17 Jan 2021 12:20 AM PST

    I recently got accepted into Holberton and one of my required readings before the program starts is The C Programming Language, 2nd Edition. I've designed the notes to encourage information retention (modified Cornell Notetaking method). I'm learning as I create this, so I'd like to have other people learning with me, too.

    QR code to Store Multiple EVEnts

    Posted: 17 Jan 2021 12:00 AM PST

    Hello Dear Programmers!

    I have a question for someone more experienced than myself.

    I am creating a WebApp using JS.

    So the basic idea is that people can create different events that have Name, Location, Start Time, End Time, Start Date, End Date.
    I will use a basketball season as an example. There are multiple games in the span of 3 months. In those 3 months, there are 32 games if we talk about college. The games are usually printed on the flyer and fans have to manually insert them into their phones. I am trying to make a web-application in which a promoter can create all these different events (basketball games) and then generate a QR code that once scanned will automatically put all the different games with names, dates, and times into the person's phone.

    My problem is that I still did not find a solution to my question. I know there are two types of QR codes but the documentation that I read is about how to store different URL's which then lead to some flyer or to promote an event. I am trying to make the QR code directly work with the phone itself.
    I hope this make sense. Thank you for reading this!

    Why can't I learn something new now?

    Posted: 16 Jan 2021 10:32 PM PST

    I am first year college student who was once interested in electronics(microprocessor, microcontrollers etc), programming and cybersecurity. Since I joined college, I lost all my interest in these topics(idk why). Currently I am trying to get Comptia A+ certification and learning programming(more than basics, python, web). Speaking of electronics, my teacher almost teaches nothing, she tries but she is unable to teach us. I want some resources to learn electronics(from p-n junction to cpus, everything). Nowadays when I try to learn something new, I am unable to focus and things which I used to learn in just matter off hours sometimes takes days to just get a slight idea. I still want to pursue above mentioned stuff because those are the things I was ever interested in and focused on earlier. Its just some sort of "mental disease" that I am unable to focus. Can someone provide any advice on how to deal with it.
