    15 week full stack dev bootcamp! learn programming

    15 week full stack dev bootcamp! learn programming


    15 week full stack dev bootcamp!

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 02:22 PM PDT

    Hi there,

    I recently made an interactive google sheets dev bootcamp schedule that you might find useful! It covers almost all topics that will get you on your way to become a full stack developer.Check it out here:

    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nLnd40qHDuiZg14f_jPUOtowXiUhek8376rO13R3z1U/edit?usp=sharing

    I first got the idea from appacademy's 16 to 24 week courses.. though I saw that you have to literally pay thousands upon thousands for their bootcamp...https://blog.appacademy.io/16-week-vs-24-week/?utm_source=appacademy&utm_medium=main-nav&utm_campaign=common-questions&utm_content=1

    The overall cost of my "bootcamp" per se is only around $100 through all the udemy classes lol. Let me know what you think about this!

    EDIT: I didn't think this would become an "actual" bootcamp. Just only resource lol but I made a discord if you'd want to share or exchange information regarding this! https://discord.gg/B9pZjtdMCE

    Is windows that bad for programming(in my case im learning Java)?

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 09:49 AM PDT

    I have seen several posts about how windows cause issues while programming and how its more hectic to go through stuff to do the simple things while in unix its as smooth as butter. I'm curious cause I own own a Desktop which has really good specs but the only reason I dont use it is because my friends told me it's better to learn a unix based OS.

    I always question them about how come? Their answer never satisfies, so here i turn to the internet. Would me using a desktop that has windows installed on it stop me from learning Java without hurdles?

    Is hacked together code legit?

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 04:45 PM PDT

    I just wanted to feel this out. I have been writing my own webapp for almost a year (on top of full time work, having a toddler) so mainly just in the evenings and during nap times.

    I can definitely feel my proficiency picking up and I am managing to build more and more with less and less stackoverflow rabbitholing. The thing is, how I am building is really just using the bits and pieces I am learning and making it fit together. I feel like I am using brute force and blu-tack for a lot of the app, particularly the features that are a bit more complex. But things are kinda working (if I don't push things too far).

    I believe this is the process of iterating and sort of aligns with Sandberg's dictum: "Better done than perfect". I can keep cycling back and reviewing old code and tightening things as I learn more, no?

    I feel kind ashamed of things like 2 AJAX calls in a function because I could get it to work rather than doing everything in one sleek function etc.

    Anyway, am I doing it "right"?

    Is it normal to learn and program very slowly? Anyone else feel like they're being left behind all the time?

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 11:25 PM PDT

    A lot of times you see people talking about how they learned how to program in 6 months and landed a job with no degree, or they build a full-stack app in a week, or etc etc. It's all very discouraging sometimes. I've been working on the same CRUD webapp for a while and have spent an unreasonable amount of man-hours for something which should theoretically have taken much less time to build.

    Everyday I see something in my feed related to some programming feat, it makes me feel so shitty inside.

    Arguments for Multi-Dimensional Arrays in C

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 11:34 AM PDT

    The tutorial I'm following says some arguments can be left blank, but I got a little bit confused about the implications.

    would the following work: int a[][4] {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11}

    would this work: int a[3][] {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11}

    this would NOT work, correct? int a[][] {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11}

    and what situations would leaving the arguments blank be useful in? Arrays of unknown size?

    also, can you change the population of an array once it's already been declared? if you remove an item, do the others shift location in the array to take its place (if I remove array item #7, does 8 and all numbers after it shift down by one?), or is the missing number just ignored/null'd?

    Learning sites (paid or unpaid)

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 06:13 AM PDT

    TL;DR: opinions on Udemy, PluralSight, other sites like these (paid or unpaid) for not only beginners but developers switching to new languages or learning more advanced concepts.

    Edit: I'd also love to make a place where people in the same position to go for vetted resources, just like a massive compilation with reviews from redditors and such.

    I'm sorry if I'm beating a dead horse here, I'm just hoping I'm not the only one who feels this way.

    I'm currently a software developer for a government agency, I was brought on as the "JavaScript guy" for my team. They want me to branch out and learn C# and have given me a budget for this (they've also suggested Java which I've been needing to do anyway as I do some mobile app stuff as well)

    I've been trying to find paid sites or courses that I can use this budget for, I want to maximize this opportunity as much as I can, but everyone seems to only suggest basic/new to coding courses, I guess I'm just hoping to find more intermediate level courses, which brings me to my big question:

    What are everyone's thoughts on Udemy, PluralSight, and any other potential sites like this?

    I've used and love Udemy, PluralSight also seems solid but I'm not sure past this little free period, I'm hesitant to really dive in yet.

    How annoying is Regex for you?

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 11:49 PM PDT

    I've always had to relearn all the syntax for regex every time I wanted to use it and I thought I could do a project that'd help me with it so that I wouldn't need to keep going back to a cheat sheet or anything. I'm probably going to make this project regardless of the feedback on this post but I'm just wondering if you guys are having the same problem as me and if y'all would be interested in checking it out once it's finished

    What language should I use to create a backup program/script?

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 09:27 PM PDT

    I'm wanting to write a sort of batch job that will copy files to a specific location, either on a NAS (network attached storage) or external hard drive. I would want to write it for both OSX and Windows, since I use both.
    I'm very proficient in Java and JavaScript/Typescript, but I'm open to ideas to learn new languages.

    The use case is that I would want to start the process manually with steps, with the output looking something like

    Moving music... Done.

    Moving documents... Done.

    It could either have a GUI interface or be all command line. Leaning towards command line preferably, but I could swing both ways.

    Any ideas/thoughts?

    Programm not breaking out of for loop even tho it should, what amm I doing wrong? [Python]

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 08:05 AM PDT

    Hello guys I have a small problem, it is probably an easy fix but I am new and probabyl just missing smth very obvious.

    I am programming a Motor that should stop when a button is pressed (code bellow)

    Its not much, the button works fine (I tested that seperatly), the programm is just the for loop that sets the stepper motor one step ahead, the checks if the button is pressed and if its pressed sets the "anschlag_rechts" to one. Then it should check if "anschlag_rechts" it is set to one and if yes should break out of the loop. The sleep function is just so the motor works "smoother"

    Thats it!

    I would appreciate any help and tips on why his is not working, thanks and stay safe!

    from gpiozero import Button from signal import pause from adafruit_motorkit import MotorKit from adafruit_motor import stepper import time button = Button(4) kit = MotorKit() Anschlag_rechts = 0 def button_pressed(): Anschlag_rechts = 1 for i in range(400): kit.stepper1.onestep(style=stepper.SINGLE) button.when_pressed = button_pressed if Anschlag_rechts == 1: break time.sleep(0.01) kit.stepper1.release()

    Need to learn about Databases

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 02:59 PM PDT

    Hello! I've been learning to program over the years and I've gotten pretty solid with C# and asp.net MVC but I've gotten to the point were my lack of knowledge about databases is becoming an issue. Everything I've done so far has had a database set up that I imported or someone on my team did it. I'm looking for something that may be more project focused since that generally helps me learn better(free is preferred but if there is a fairly cheap class/resource that could be an option). Any suggestions would be helpful, Thanks!

    I want to learn to code, but my end goal is not a job as a software engineer..........

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 09:45 PM PDT

    Hello!

    This might be a weird question. But I am trying to learn to code, for my side business. I am not looking to become a software developer. I just want to learn some code, so I can inspect the code of freelancers.

    How in - depth do I have to go into programming, to be a decent debugger? I plan to do this for the early days before I generate revenue. Once I generate revenue, I would pay for a "CTO."

    I have plenty of CS friends, however, I do not want to bug them. I could pay them for a debugging session, but I want to learn the basics as well.

    Since I plan to contract for my business, I do not want to get screwed or publish spaghetti code.

    Most tutorials I have seen are dedicated for individuals that want to become software engineers. I have not seen any practical courses.

    I know the basics of HTML and CSS. So, I usually can hack a static landing page. I also have a good understanding of SQL, as I am a Business Analyst.

    For the most part, I am probably going to be contracting for HTML, CSS, JS and Firebase. Since my userbase requires access to the app on their desktop, tablet, and mobile phone, I am looking at the Progressive Web App framework.

    Down the line, I might learn Python, for both my side business and my 9 – 5. My friend suggested I take the following course - https://www.udemy.com/course/automate/ as it is very practical.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks!!

    I'm trying to learn how to code python. I just hit a snag (OS related)

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 03:31 PM PDT

    Hi! First off, please forgive me if I come off as an ignorant noob. I took the first steps of learning how to code yesterday by going on UDemy and watching free tutorials. I was told that my Chromebook laptop isn't ideal for this, but I got on Linux terminal and was able to get python uploaded onto it. However, the tutorial is now asking me to download Pycharm, which I am also using Linux Terminal to upload! The website I am using told me to do this:

    Commands Used:

    1) sudo apt update
    2) sudo apt install python3 python3-pip build-essential libssl-dev libffi-dev python3-dev default-jdk
    3) tar -xf pycharm-community-2020.3.5.tar.gz
    4) cd pycharm-community-2020.3.5/bin
    5) ./pycharm.sh
    6) sudo apt install menulibre
    7) menulibre

    the first two commands went fine, but the terminal isn't reading number 3. I keep getting "command not found". What do I do?

    What is a good free C++ course for a complete beginner?

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 05:45 PM PDT

    So I'm in 8th grade and want to start coding, my school doesn't offer great coding classes for me right now so I was wondering if there is a good online course I can take. I took a course to learn how to type and it worked out well so it there one that will teach me either c++ or c# for free. I know nothing so it has to be something that assumes I'm a complete beginner. I thought about codecademy but I have heard some negative stuff about it, so what is a good course to take. Also if it's user friendly that would be good, I know MIT has free online courses but the website confuses me and I don't know where to start or where to go after that. Any help will be very much appreciated, thank you.

    Is it possible to import to html using flask?

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 11:10 PM PDT

    For example

    from forms import RegistrationForm. 

    This might be a bad example but the question still stands. I realize you can send variables to forms from .py flask files.

    Help deciding what to focus my time on

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 04:47 PM PDT

    Hello, I understand that this is probably a commonly asked question, but I still want to ask it for my own specific circumstances.

    I have spent a couple months working on websites using Javascript (haven't worked on back-end though). However, I am beginning a computer science undergrad (September) and the intro to programming class is taught using Python (@University of Calgary, Canada)

    Is it beneficial to switch gears and spend time learning Python, or maybe learn the fundamentals more thoroughly using a C language? Any ideas are welcome. Thank you.

    What makes a language object oriented?

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 05:54 AM PDT

    Like, Go presents itself as OO but Rust doesn't and they're super similar in syntax. C has structs which can't have associated functions, well what's the difference if they're associated symbolically or logically, it's still a function that takes the type so o.foo() doesn't really seem that different from foo(o), seems more like little syntactical differences.

    Of course I have no idea, what's actually going on under the hood, but everything just seems OO to me, save for like Haskell and other more exotic things. There just doesn't seem to me to be a solid perceivable difference, but I'd really want to understand what this means. And if it's just a design philosophy thing or can actually be seen inside. Just... why are structs with basically associated functions not objects.

    Or am I just thinking too OO in non-OO languages?

    separate environments for my research projects

    Posted: 07 Apr 2021 06:23 PM PDT

    Hey guys, I am starting my PhD in ML and computer visioin, and will be working on many projects. I don't my projects dependencies to mess with each other, so I am thinking of either using a docker file for each project or a virtual environment (python or conda).

    which one do you think is the best?
