This Sub Wasn't Lying: Coding is Just Errors & Google Posted: 23 Jun 2021 12:13 PM PDT Hey there. I've been a casual browser of r/learnprogramming for a couple of years. As I was graduating with a finance major I would check out the sub because I saw a lot more career opportunities and potential for fun projects in software. I always thought this sub exaggerated how much googling and debugging errors are part of the job. Honestly assumed that most of the sub was just new coders who burned out quit but, that anyone dedicated and intelligent enough would be able to code semi-effortlessly. Well, I'm in three months of a coding Bootcamp and I can confidently say I was talking out of my ass. You would have to be a literal computer god with an elephant's memory to code without google. And if you were able to, as soon as you needed to use any new technology you would inevitably have to go back to google. Downloading and installing new programs honestly feels like diffusing a bomb with the smallest errors blowing up in your face. TLDR: I spend more time googling & debugging errors than writing code, and that okay :) [link] [comments] |
Posted: 23 Jun 2021 11:50 AM PDT So I'm a baby coder as I've only just started learning basic Python but is it as addicting to others as it is to me? Each new thing I learn I just wanna practice and impliment it with other things, want to solve problems when they come about etc. I think I wanna branch out into other software as well like Javascript and C++ because I would like a career in this as well, but are there any tips you guys might be able to give me in regards to this? Thankies 😊 [link] [comments] |
Struggling with oop, how to think in terms of "real life objects"? Posted: 24 Jun 2021 02:06 AM PDT Hello fellow programmers and learners So I've been into programming for over 2 years and I manage to program in functional programming verry well, but the object oriented programming seems a bit off for me, because of all the explanations like "think in terms of real life object" etc. (like how should "organizer" or "builder" exist in real life world? its more like a scripts if you get what I am saying) And I have my current project for a job interview which can be done in one algorithm and I am trying to write code to be as most oop as possible. And I am struggling thinking complexities, because if I write code in OOP I tend to get whole project complexity in my head and then organize how it should look like not like functional programming where I think in terms of steps [link] [comments] |
Is there a “The Odin Project” or “Full Stack Open” similar syllabus for C# and .NET Core? Posted: 23 Jun 2021 02:23 PM PDT After the unrivalled success I've had with TOP and continued success with Full Stack Open, I've been branching my horizons and wanting to jump into C# and .NET Core framework. I'm currently working through the pluralsight course for .NET Core and C# fundamentals, but I would really like a syllabus that can provide projects to apply the knowledge learning. My other thought process was using Codewars and working from 8th Kyu upwards. Cheers! [link] [comments] |
Posted: 23 Jun 2021 07:45 PM PDT As the title says, its been quite a while since the last time i coded something, i had to drop school due to money issues, so i still remember some but never got deep into something, could you please help me telling me on what should i focus, i now front end it's one of the easier paths. But if you can tell what are the best/easier languages to start as a rusty programmer or provide me some links where i can learn proyect based (if possible free or cheap), i had to work on everything but coding so right now im more like a freshman than anything and im just trying to land a remote job (im latinoamerican) with a decent enough wage. Thanks in advance for the help, i know im not being specific on what i know or looking for but im quite lost in these world for now, just think of myself as a noob that knows how to the hello world and wants to jump to the big leagues [link] [comments] |

I'm afraid of "dependencies" in my projects Posted: 23 Jun 2021 06:36 PM PDT Not exactly afraid but more like feeling anxiety, I've been learning programming for over 6 months and recently I've got this anxiety when working on my website or new projects, my issue with is feeling anxious over the 300MBs+ node dependencies on my website (I'm using Next.js), and when it comes to new projects, I'm afraid of depending on other projects for certain stuff and feel like I should do everything from scratch, even if there's already a library that would do it better, I feel like "and what if a dependency goes unmaintained?" and "Am I a real programmer if I import libraries to do some work for me?" Does anyone have any advice for a new programmer, I'm not sure how to deal with this. [link] [comments] |
How to think like a programmer while being interviewed. Posted: 24 Jun 2021 12:47 AM PDT I am going to my first interview in a week or 2 and everyone around me tells me that they will want to see how I think and what questions I ask. That worries me. Does anyone have any tips for me or maybe a website with problems to solve? I will be interviewed about my knowledge of JS, NodeJS and DB like MongoDB and SQL. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 23 Jun 2021 08:56 AM PDT A little about myself, I've been programming since my teens and I've been into python for over three years now (use this for work). I graduated from college with a CS degree last August and I thought I was prepared for more difficult tasks. Boy, was I wrong. I've been working for a clean energy startup for about 4 months now as a data analyst (I build ETL pipelines and on the API more than analysis cuz no domain knowledge) And I love what I do. But it takes me a lot of time to come up with solutions on my own. Like, I understand what the problem is, but when I sit down to solve and code it, I just can't figure out what to do. Took me two weeks to do something (I had ten days to do it and since I couldn't, my CEO had to make an excuse to the customer to buy us more time). I eventually managed to build it and everything is good. My team is really supportive and nice but I don't want to get in a position where others get into uncomfortable situations because of me. I'm stuck again at another problem and I'm starting to think I'm not good enough. They took a risk by hiring me as I am the only fresher in the entire company and I don't want to make them regret it... How do you guys just look at a problem and come up with a solution for it? Hell, how do you guys just understand a tough problem immediately? My manager had to eli5 it to me and it took over 20 minutes. How do I get better at that? Please help! [link] [comments] |
Posted: 23 Jun 2021 10:03 PM PDT Hi all, I'm a college math major looking to learn to code on the side. My university unfortunately has a very limited and iffy CS department and so I've decided to learn on my own. I was hoping to get some feedback on what I've got so far-
I worry that particularly somewhere among 2-5 I'm being redundant with at least one of them and was hoping for some advice. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 23 Jun 2021 09:59 PM PDT I am a total noob learning python via Paul McWhorter on YouTube and Automate the Boring Stuff with Python by Al Sweigart. I have noticed that when using quotes for strings people are using ' and not " . To me it would seem better to use " instead as it will allow for you to use contractions and show possessiveness in the text. Is there a reason that I should not be using " ? Example for clarity print("Don't eat that! That's Daniel's food.") versus print('Do not eat that! That is Daniels food.') [link] [comments] |
Free tutoring in web development Posted: 23 Jun 2021 01:41 PM PDT UPDATE -- Sessions are full! Thank you for the interest everyone! Hi all, I'm offering free tutoring over discord for 5 people. Sessions will be 30 min to an hour, and I'll be quick to let you know if I think I can help adequately. I'm offering this since I'm thinking of doing tutoring as a paid job eventually, but also would like to see what are some common pain points for those learning programming which will help guide some blog posts I'm working on writing. My background & credentials: I'm a software engineer with about 3 years experience. Studied at UC Berkeley and got a degree in Cognitive Science, but did all the Computer Science Undergrad course. Thought I would never want to code again, but came back to it and enjoyed it. Took a bootcamp to learn more "practical skills" than from my lower division courses. I then taught at a boot camp for a short stint, but still continue to help close friends study from non-CS backgrounds and get into the industry. Afterwards, worked for both an enterprise company and a tech startup. My area of expertise is in web development, particularly with React, GraphQL, Node.js. I'm open to helping out where I can with any programming, general career questions, etc. I think I can especially useful to those who are thinking about doing a boot camp, self-studying, in a boot camp currently, or new boot camp grads. Reach out to me on discord at Patrick#9843 to schedule a session, I'll try my best to reply ASAP [link] [comments] |
Detect if two strings have the same pattern (Python3) Posted: 24 Jun 2021 02:11 AM PDT On Educative, there is a quiz question where you have to code a function that accepts two strings and returns a boolean if they have the same pattern or not. A restriction is that you can only construct new strings to solve this question, no other data structures are allowed. Test cases: I'm puzzled and unsure how to solve this question. I'm not necessarily looking for actual code. Pseudo code or just some hints on how I could approach this would be great. [link] [comments] |
Can I code beginner projects using in-browser Python? Posted: 24 Jun 2021 02:01 AM PDT I wanted to use in-browser implementations of Python like skulpt.org so that I don't have to download anything. But can I code stuff like a small text-based adventure game on that? I suppose I can't use it if i want to create more complex kind of games. It seems like I can only use it to learn coding fundamentals such as loops, conditionals, to experiment with the language, but i can't make stuff like a chess game or any kind of visual game, right (unless i uploaded all the required images and graphic elements somewhere online maybe?). i don't know where is the limit of what i can do since i only know a bit of Javascript and have no experience whatsoever with languages that aren't processed by browser [link] [comments] |

Posted: 24 Jun 2021 01:01 AM PDT I've heard a lot about this and i really think i'm only now starting to get used to it. I'm doing a coding course on udemy and i keep getting very frustrated when an exercise or problem comes up that i cant wrap my head around and solve it immediately. I was feeling defeated and that i was just not "good enough" when i couldnt get the problem with no outside help (i'm going the self taught route). This is/was really holding me back. It'd even put me in a bad mood! Ultimately, it's fine. You really do have to be wrong again and again and again. Just because i couldnt complete one problem entirely alone doesnt mean im a failure or not smart enough for this. Ultimately, you learn and progress even with help - possibly even more so. I need to stop expecting to get everything the first time and accept that sometimes im going to need some help or to just look at the solution and work backwards because in the end the result is the same - i learn, i progress and i move forward. Mini rant over. [link] [comments] |
What are some advance techniques? Posted: 23 Jun 2021 08:38 PM PDT One of my coworkers the other day told me if you create a static int and give each object an ID number it becomes super easy to find the point where the object is created (in the constructor write `if serialid == problem_id`). I rather like this Another coworker told me to either have all if statements return or none of them so its easier to write through code. Obviously that sounds wrong because sometimes you want something to return but after giving an example he simply said move that return in its own function so the big ass function is easier to go through since its consistent Any tips like these?

How do you plan your db for api? Posted: 23 Jun 2021 06:13 PM PDT Are there any good free db planning tools, I remember one I used to use with Oracle that you created a visual map began with an E but it was really expensive. I'm trying to plan a db structure for an API prior to actually building it. How do you plan out databases before starting a project? [link] [comments] |
Trying to read in a text file to a 2D Array but it skips the very first line. Posted: 24 Jun 2021 12:10 AM PDT Please see the code here on onlinegdb compiler. I am trying to open a text file (single characters going down vertically - grades) and read it into a 2D array in C++. It then prints it out so I can check what was put in the array. I thought it was working fine until I realized it skips over the first line and prints out the rest. I tried getting some help from a tutor and on line 26, they just put: My internet got cut out and they closed so I didn't get a chance to ask them to explain it to me. Also I don't really want to use what he wrote as we have not learned it that way in my class (of course I am open to learning new/better ways for myself but in case my prof is particular about these things), and, if possible I'd like to keep it how I originally had it or similar but have it read the first line so it prints all 15 grades out. TIA! [link] [comments] |
Posted: 23 Jun 2021 09:15 AM PDT 5 years ago , I really wanted to know how to code badly . I jumped from video tutorial to forums to books to blogs but it didn't really "get it" . The tutorials were not completely useless. I did learn about the basics - strings , loops , int , functions e.t.c. The main problem I was having was that I couldn't quite figure out how the small things fit together . Doing the simple exercises was starting to get old . I personally do not like any proprietary google services on my phone , that is why I use custom roms . I wanted to be able to backup my contacts , call log and SMS but I couldnt find an open source solution that I liked and worked as reliable as I hoped it would . I decided to create an app that would solve this problem . That is when programming started to really click. Do you need to store related records ie call logs? .. Use an SQL database . Do you need to go through every call log to make sure it has been backed up ? use a loop. Want to make sure that the data sent from the online backup website has not been corrupted ? use the accompanying md5 hash to calculate the validity. Are you afraid that during the data restoration something might go wrong ? Use exceptions when possible or transactions in the case of Sql. Basically , if you have no need to create custom software , you will have a harder time trying to learn programing . I am not going to debate pros/cons of college/bootcamps but one of the ways they solve this problem is by forcing you to care about custom software. If you dont do the assignments , well you wont graduate. [link] [comments] |
C# or python for jobs in the UK Posted: 23 Jun 2021 11:42 PM PDT Hi all. Thank you in advance for any help, advice or any comments tbh. I have been coding on and off for a long time but I wouldnt say I'm proficient at any language. At work I use excel vba a lot and Sql. I'm looking to study in my spare time to move from finance into a software job. I am based in Scotland near Glasgow. Should I learn c# or python? What are the pros and cons of each?
