What have you been working on recently? [June 26, 2021] Posted: 25 Jun 2021 09:00 PM PDT What have you been working on recently? Feel free to share updates on projects you're working on, brag about any major milestones you've hit, grouse about a challenge you've ran into recently... Any sort of "progress report" is fair game! A few requests:

What are the Ferengi rules of programming? Posted: 25 Jun 2021 01:39 PM PDT A coworker today, after a discussion, casually tossed out, "I'll have you this by Monday." I responded, "Never give a date you weren't asked for because something will change!" Rule 1: Never give a date you weren't asked for. Of course the first addition will be... Rule 2: When giving an estimate double it first. Rule 3: Explain it to the duck first. (/u/insertAlias, /u/eternalblueclue) [link] [comments] |
Which language is in most demand right now? Posted: 25 Jun 2021 10:31 PM PDT I'm in highschool and pretty much lost all hope in my studies. I am super interested in coding, I have always loved Maths and problem solving. However, the competition in the "Maths/Science" related careers are pretty high. I would like to rack up my programming skills. I'm still in Year 1 so I have a lot of time. I would like to learn a language that would be most useful to bring me cash. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 25 Jun 2021 08:11 PM PDT I just started learning Java on Codecademy but saw some negative reviews and was just wondering whether that was the best way to go. I looked through some of the recommended resources in the FAQ of this subreddit, but was just wondering if anyone had a sort of learning path that they would recommend, or just a sort of list of resources/tutorials starting at the basics. Any help would be appreciated, thanks! [link] [comments] |
What should I learn besides python to get a good job? Posted: 25 Jun 2021 11:19 PM PDT The term python programmer is very broad, it's like the term doctor. Can anyone tell me please what types of python programmers there are and what each type of programmer must know. I googled this, obviously, but I just want to confirm the information from real people. I don't know what type of python programmer I want to be, I just know I want to work with python. Thank you in advance! [link] [comments] |
Made my first PWA (Progressive Web App) Posted: 26 Jun 2021 12:52 AM PDT Hello there. Today, I finished work on a calculator PWA I made. The calculator took a day to build, the setup of the pwa took a few hours. https://bad-calculator.glitch.me/ [link] [comments] |

I'm feeling lost while learning to code in JavaScript Posted: 25 Jun 2021 12:15 PM PDT I've been trying to learn how to code specifically web dev for probably the last 6 months, I started FreeCodeCamp in 2020 but I didn't take the projects seriously. Starting in 2021, I tried my hand at The Odin Project, so I redid all the work from 2020 and completed the projects. I was starting to hit a stride and I was able to make static webpages. I've been in a bootcamp for UX Design and I want to be able to pair my UX skills with my new found skills in web dev. While learning HTML and CSS I was able to power through and pick it up, then I reached JavaScript and I feel utterly lost. I feel like I'm stuck in tutorial hell. I found a lot of students tend to find groups or mentors to talk to for learning but I've been doing this solo. I had the following questions... 1) What's the best way to connect with other students who are learning to code or mentors who can provide some guidance? 2) What are some methods to learning JavaScript basics and syntax prior to me diving back into The Odin Project? I appreciate the help! Thanks for your time :) [link] [comments] |
Posted: 25 Jun 2021 07:27 PM PDT The former is easier to type, but is incorrect. The latter is correct, but requires an ALT code, copy/paste, or use of the character map. I'm still new to this, so I don't know if I could just code in a situation where 'n' displays as 'ñ'. I'm sure it's possible, but I just want to know if that's how this is handled?

How to embed text , media , audio in a single file Posted: 25 Jun 2021 09:36 PM PDT Hello, I am trying to create a program pretty similar like Microsoft Word or Libre Office . I can create a rich text editor using a GUI toolkit. But problem begins when I try making functionality like adding image or videos. I mean I can definitely link an image in my project. But I want to create a single file and my all media files and text files should live in one single file much like Microsoft word document file. I want to know what can I do for achieving this . I am not expecting any source code I just want to know the concept. Any external source will be appreciated. Ty in advance. [link] [comments] |
I want to start C# and am looking for good material to read and watch. Posted: 25 Jun 2021 06:29 PM PDT I've worked with Python, Greenfoot and JavaScript and a small bit of html. I'm looking to use the Unity engine. And as I've found it uses C# which I have very little experience with. I have more experience with C++ as that's what my dad use to code with as he used it in work before. So basically I do have some coding experience, just not C# I want to learn some C# so I can code in Unity a little better then just relying on asset tools. is there any good reading and video material for learning C# for game coding? I want to go as far as making 3D games as well in Unity. Not planning on making games to sell or anything I just want to have some fun. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 26 Jun 2021 12:20 AM PDT For anyone familiar with the textbook "computer systems a programmer's perspective 3rd edition", there's a practice problem about operand forms for x86-64. I re-read this section so many times but I still can't understand how to use these operand forms. For example, for 9(%rax,%rdx) it looks like you just add all them up to get M[0x112] but there is no address 0x112 in the given values? I feel like I'm understanding this completely wrong...

Posted: 25 Jun 2021 03:08 PM PDT Hello everyone, I just recently started trying to teach myself to program. I took some classes years ago in college and have found a renewed interest in it. Im no stranger to some of the basics ( loops, variables, etc). However, I find myself having a hard time with the problem solving aspect and breaking problems down. Are there any courses or books or any materials( preferentially videos) that anyone can recommend to help me in this aspect. [link] [comments] |
Python Dash&Plotly dashboard directions Posted: 25 Jun 2021 11:44 PM PDT Hey all, Basically I am going to create a Python dashboard (using dash and plotly) which will be providing live information about reservations for a short-term letting company. I will be getting the information from the PMS's API. (property management software) I have more or less done the part of getting, proccessing, cleaning and orginizing the data from the PMS's API. My plan is to deploy the app on Heroku once it is done.
I will be coming up with more questions (and providing code), in the meantime any answers to these two questions or any other insights will be greatly appreciated! Much thanks, [link] [comments] |
Best way to clear terminal in C? Posted: 25 Jun 2021 02:43 PM PDT So I was making a program where I need to clear the terminal, and I'm not sure what the best way to do this is. I have so far found 2 methods: system("clear"); This method properly clears the terminal, but from what I understand this just runs my shells "clear" command, which I don't imagine is very efficient, and it also probably wouldnt work if compiled and run on windows (which isn't the end of the world, as it would still work on *nix operating systems, but I'd like a more cross-compatible solution). printf("\e[1;1H\e[2J"); This method to my understanding just prints a bunch of newlines the height of the screen (not sure as I don't understand regex). This is both probably faster than the previous method and would also work on all platforms, as it doesn't rely on a shell having a certain command, however it doesn't actually clear the screen, it just prints a bunch of newlines until the previous text is no longer on the screen, you can still scroll up and see it. So, is there a better way to clear the terminal that doesn't have the downsides of these two methods, and if not which one would be better to use? Thanks in advance. [link] [comments] |
What technology/website/tool really made you level up your programming? Posted: 25 Jun 2021 08:27 AM PDT Let's help each other out with some useful suggestions , I'm really curious about this. For me, it was probably learning about Git and version control. [link] [comments] |
In need for Advice, Trying to figure out my path. Posted: 25 Jun 2021 11:02 PM PDT Hello guys, Let's make it short. I dabbled with programming before but nothing crazy, I mean it nothing crazy, I just know the basics. The reason why I learned and still want to learn how to program, it's because of an App idea that keeps hunting my mind everyday for the past two years, and I mean it. The problem is that I don't see myself doing something else other than working on this app. I don't mind failing, It's definetely promising but it will be hard to change people habit for many reasons, but i still believe I can do it, at least try it. I know this app will be very hard to make. But honestly, I don't know what platform to chose to build my app. I have mac, I dabbled with IOS, Flutter, and Android. So the idea is kinda simple, Do you guys heard of super apps ? Mostly dominating the market in Asia ? That's exactly what I want to do but for Europe and North america. But I don't want it to be only focused on offering services. Basically for those of you who don't know super apps like multi-services platform. In the West we like entertainment, Virality, stars. So I want to add a social network inside that super app. I know facebook is trying to become a super app but it's hard for them to change their image since we already have a specific image on our mind when we think of facebook. I want to start as a social media app, but i will always be honest with my users that our only goal will be to become a super app, so at least i know I planted the seed in their head. That's basically it. I want to create a super app, I am still working on the UI/UX. But I want to know how I should deal with this ? Do I code it myself ? Do i get someone to do it for me ? I don't have money, I just got my job and I get paid 3000USD a month, so it's not much. How do i deal with this ? tackle this challenge as a programmer or as an entrepreneur ? Can I really build such an app myself if I learn to code ? I won't start with multiple services when it launches, I will start with a mix of instagram + Tiktok + twitter + share property of facebook. Basically i want people to share short videos like on Tiktok, Post images like instagram + post short text like twitter+ seeing what other people have shared. There will also be a messaging inside of it. Here is the thing. I want people to filter the content that they see, not just the algorithm behind the scenes. If you're gay you can say it to me "the app" and I will only show you content from other gay people and really keep you in that bubble, and from that point i will start filtering the content and suggest you content based on your like and comments, but onyl content from gay people or lgbt. Do you know what I mean ? I want to do the opposite of every social media app, I want to people to truly be in their own head and bubble, by their own choice, not by an algorithm. I also want you to see content from location that you desire. If you want to see content only from florida you filter it. I want everyone to find their place inside this app and that's how i want to keep the users engaged, you know? be that kind person who cares about the users and always make sure that you see content that you like. and then make them use the services I offer and turn this app into a super app. But i see four section of every type of content : Photos, videos, text --> Following, for you, not for you, followers. following is pretty obvious.followers too, I want social media stars to see the content of their followers by simply clicking a button i think it will create a better connection between the stars and the non stars. By section Imagine tiktok. the for you is pretty obvious is what you like to see + algorithm. and not for you, you simply describe the people you don't like and see their content, people deep down like this, they want to criticize other people and it will also trigger them and come back to the app for it. imagine looking at content you dont like on the not for you page and then getting pissed off, you simply switch do the for you page and feel in your comfort zone and convince yourself that you're right. then you switch you see the content of the people you're following, and you switch again to your followers content and you like some pictures of them, they get the notification and getting excited that their favorite influencers and they come back to the app and get stuck in that same loop. I really want people to filter thing by themselves you know. The location of the content, the type of people it's from. I even want to add this feature to the services i want to offer in the future, like ride hailing. i want a driver that is gay or gay friendly. Anyway this app will be extremely hard to make for a newbie like me, but i want to build it and that is my only goal in life i dont care what you guys say "oh forget about this and that". I think i could've explained the app better but don't habe the energy to read what i wrote, for more explanation just ask question and I will answer them no problem. So yeah what do you guys think of the app, very open to constructive criticism honestly. and What platform should I chose to build it ? IOS ? I personally think ios is better, but hey if i can create this with a cross platform framework, Then i will but i don't know if it's going to be slow and have a bad performance. Also should i build this myself or find a way to gather investors ? so yeah i am dreaming big and i know that, Its even a bit scary for me to think like that but i love it and I will pursue it,trust me you will hear of an app like that and just know it is me. Take care guys. P.S : I am not gay. [link] [comments] |
How do you calculate the distance between two points over roads using vector map tiles? Posted: 25 Jun 2021 07:14 PM PDT I'm working on a project where I need to solve the travelling salesman problem semi-optimally given the longitude and latitude of several points and was wondering how I can interact with a vector map tile to calculate the distance over road between two points preferably in JavaScript on the client-side. If this is unfeasible, too difficult, or outright impossible, I don't have an issue making the calculations on a Python backend. [link] [comments] |
Trying to create bug tracker, rather lost Posted: 25 Jun 2021 10:46 PM PDT Hello, I'm about to go into my third year in Uni. However, I am yet to have any projects on my portfolio. I know c++ decently, c# somewhat, Java somewhat, and HTML and CSS. I was looking at creating a game, something like this: http://nicktasios.nl/posts/space-invaders-from-scratch-part-1.html But I figured since I'm not going into game development, this was prob best avoided. Instead, I wanted to create a bug tracker. Something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vG824vBdYY8 I was hoping to create it in C++, but I know I will need some additional languages as well. I'm unsure what to use. I saw people debate. If c++ is not a good language for this program, would Javascipt + React be worth learning? I don't mean to sound clueless, but I'm rather lost and need some direction. [link] [comments] |

Python Basic Selenium Task (Help Appreciated) Posted: 25 Jun 2021 05:29 PM PDT I am trying to do a simple scraping task using Selenium. All I would like to do is go to this website, print the page number I am on, then click on the next page button. I would like the program to do this any amount of times, here I set it to 10. The program does open the page, print the number, and click to the next page, but only once. I am not sure what is wrong with my for loop and indexing plan. Why doesn't it perform the task then loop back up to the top and repeat? I hope to do some more advanced webscraping here but I can't get information from each page if the program can't make it to each page and know where it is. Code below. Thank you in advance.
