    To all self-taught programmers, how do you deal with feeling mediocre?

    Posted: 18 Dec 2021 10:08 PM PST

    When you are just starting to learn programming at 25, and see kids who are much younger than you getting job at Big Tech companies, publishing papers, competing in hackathons or competitive programming contests, while you are struggling to do basic things in programming. How do you deal with it when you see this happening around you? What can you do to not let it deter you from your self-learning journey?

    I just feel so stupid and don’t know what I’m doing wrong

    Posted: 18 Dec 2021 04:21 PM PST

    Recently enrolled in a 6 month fullstack boot camp thing.

    This is the end of my 3rd week and I have barely completed the week 2 project (building a lookup system using a series of for if loops where one problem required you to splice an indexOf, but they never went over splice or how to use it in relation to indexOf on purpose to make you hunt the answer down).

    Now I'm spending my weekend trying to catch up on DOM manipulation and hopefully building a functioning calculator by Monday and I just don't know why I can't do anything.

    I know this is a brand new skill, but I just feel like an idiot every time I have to keep asking "but how" 6 times in 30 minutes because I literally do not know how to do what they want and even when I look at the MDN page they recommend the solution isn't there either.

    I don't want to drop out of this because I hate customer service and never want to do it again, but I don't know how to stop feeling like I can't learn anything.

    I find that I take a really long time to wrap my head around what are considered basic concepts. Is this normal as a beginner or will I probably always be like this to some degree?

    Posted: 18 Dec 2021 08:25 PM PST

    For example, it took me forever to understand things like for loops, iterating, and just wrap my head around the logic of what's going on. I often have to mentally go through what the program is doing step by step. And I have a hard time utilizing those things to write my own programs.

    Is this just normal as a beginner? I've been doing this a couple months. I dabbled in it a few years ago, but I've gotten further now than I did then. Or is this more of a me thing and I might not be cut out either for a future job in software developer or a degree in computer science (I have the same exact problems with math and math classes in HS and college have always moved too fast for me)?

    Is it worth learning to program and switch career at 35 years old?

    Posted: 19 Dec 2021 12:43 AM PST

    I am shifting from marketing and hold a non-STEM bachelor's degree. I am working on my programming skills (even built a calculator with python some time back!). I am really interested to know how long would it take? Is web development the easiest area to break in? Does the job market have that much demand at present? I live in India but I think remote jobs anywhere in the world will do too.

    alone at university

    Posted: 19 Dec 2021 03:07 AM PST

    I know that university is something that involves many projects with many people involved. But in my case, I can't connect with anyone. It's impossible to make friends, or even a simple workgroup. I would like to know if anyone has been through the same situation, how they handled all this... I have a project to do and I don't know where to start.

    Python voting function- help!

    Posted: 19 Dec 2021 04:29 AM PST

    This is for uni so I cannot go into too much detail, but I'm at my limit now, I've studied the course and textbook but nothing has prepared me for this assignment. This is just one of many many functions I need to implement but I think once I understand this one I should be able to work on the harder ones. I've only been learning python for ten weeks🙃

    I need to create a function named scoringRule where the input is a dictionary of preferences and a scoring vector.

    The dictionary will look something like this {1: [4,2,1,3] , 2:[4,3,1,2] , 3:[4,3,1,2], 4:[1,3,4,2], 5;[2,3,4,1]} Which basically means agent 1 voted and put alternative 4 in first choice, 2 in second choice, 1 in third choice and 3 in forth choice. But really there could be any amount of agents and alternatives

    The scoring vector will be a list of lenght m that is equal to the number of alternatives (so in the above example it equals 4). I've already got error handling incase it's not the same

    For every agent the function gives the alternative the agent ranked in first place m points, second place m-1 points, third place m-2 points etc, so last place gets 1 point. Then it returns the agent with the highest score/ if it's a tie I need to do something else.

    Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can manipulate the dictionary to give me something like that? I would be more comfortable if there were a set amount of agents/alternatives but since it could be any number I'm really struggling.

    Any suggestions welcome. Thank you so much

    What's your most and least favorite thing about your fav language?

    Posted: 18 Dec 2021 05:27 PM PST

    For example, I really like C# syntax. You don't have to liter symbols everywhere (like * or ref). What I don't like is the lack of RAII destructors. Their replacement is implementing IDisposable and the user needs to remember to use a using block

    Feel free to have more than 1 but please match the amount of most fav and least fav

    What is a good time of coding/programming per day?

    Posted: 18 Dec 2021 11:20 AM PST

    Hey guys, just curious how much coding/programming you guys do per day?

    I think, if i have a good day, i can get 3 to 5 hours (with little breaks) coding done (with thinking & all). After a while i feel very fatigued and have to take a longer break, maybe i get on it later on again, but this feeling have to go first..because tired i cant code anything.

    How about you guys?

    Hello fellow programmers! I am a beginner and I learn programming on my own. Recently I thought that it would be good and challenging to connect with other beginners if there is something like this. If you know some communities like this I would be grateful if you let me know!

    Got a year of spare time to learn. The catch: I don't have any internet access for most of it.

    Posted: 19 Dec 2021 05:05 AM PST

    Every month, I "work" for 18 days at a military base and then get a 10-day holiday where I get to go home and have access to the internet. The 18 days I spend at the military involve me siting at a computer desk working on administrative stuff for 1 hour, then spending the other 6 hours doing nothing. I'm already two months in and I feel I've forgotten some of the CS stuff I learned in my MIS degree.

    Anyways, I want to get into DevOps so I was thinking of buying some PDF textbooks, putting them on a USB stick and then reading them on the computer at the military branch I work in during those 18 days.

     

    The problem is I don't know what's better for me long term: slowly studying CS during this whole year, or learning DevOps so I can find a job when I finish my service by the end of the year.

    1. CS route: I would study from the books mentioned on the highly recommended teachyourselfcs site. Thing is, I don't know if I need to know all of this if I want to work in a DevOps role or even a backend role?

    2. DevOps route: I've come across the DevOps roadmap recommended often on here and was thinking of buying books for each category (Python, Linux Admin, Networking, IaC, Docker, Cloud). This great comment mentioned by u/jacurtis perfectly illustrates what I mean.

    My concern is how feasible would it be to learn these things without internet and without a code editor to practice on for 18 days/month. I'm literally running on stock windows pc with no internet or admin priviglies at the place I'm working in, hence the need for text-based pdf books to study from.

     

    I need some guidance on what you guys think will be good for me in the long term. Which route should I take? Or should I combine a little of both? How do I go about doing this knowing I have 3 weeks no internet access/1 week internet access per month? Please help a lost soldier out...

    Note: I have some programming background in C++ and Python, as well as some frontend internship experience. I also took several CS and IS courses in my MIS degree.

    How to ascendingly order a to do list based on priority but in a text file

    Posted: 19 Dec 2021 04:48 AM PST

    So as part of an internship opportunity we have been told to make a to do list cli app .Heres the thing I dont know how to sort the text in the file in ascending order of priority, any help would be appreciated

    heres my code:

    import typer
    app = typer.Typer()
    u/app.command()
    def help():
    print("""Usage :-
    $ ./todo add 2 hello world # Add a new item with priority 2 and text "hello world" to the list
    $ ./todo ls # Show incomplete priortiy list items sorted by priority in ascending order
    $ ./todo del NUMBER # Delete the incomplete item with the given priority number
    $ ./todo done NUMBER # Mark the incomplete item with given PRIORITY_NUMBER as complete
    $ ./todo help # Show usage
    $ ./todo report # Statistics """)

    u/app.command()
    def add(priority: int,task: str):
    file1=open("ls.txt","r")
    x=len(file1.readlines())
    y=x+1
    file1.close()
    file1=open("ls.txt","a")
    file1.write(str(y)+". "+task + " ["+str(priority)+"]"+ "\n")
    file1.close()

    u/app.command()
    def ls():
    file1=open("ls.txt","r")
    print(file1.read())

    if __name__=="__main__":
    app() 

    And here is the desired output: enter image description here

    Tkinter key bind don't work with key: "PrintScreen"

    Posted: 19 Dec 2021 04:18 AM PST

    im trying to build a "Key-Test" Programm which should show if a key works. (Im from the custom keyboard community)

    My code is working fine for "esc" and "F1"-"F12" but with "PrintScreen" it dont work. I don't know why it works with all the other keys and not with printscreen. here is the code snippet from the relevant

    passage:

    from tkinter import * window = Tk() c = Canvas(window, width=1135, height=300, bg="lavender") c.pack() #Create the rectangle for PrintScreen, ScrollLock and Pause key13 = c.create_rectangle(772.5, 10, 812.5, 50, fill="white") #PrintScreen key14 = c.create_rectangle(822.5, 10, 862.5, 50, fill="white") #ScrollLock key15 = c.create_rectangle(872.5, 10, 912.5, 50, fill="white") # Pause #(german) Text for each Key text13 = c.create_text(791, 20, text="Druck", font=('Helvetica', '8')) text14 = c.create_text(841, 20, text="Rollen", font=('Helvetica', '8')) text15 = c.create_text(891, 20, text="Pause", font=('Helvetica', '8')) #event functions def key_event13(event): c.itemconfig(key13, fill="DarkSeaGreen2") def key_event14(event): c.itemconfig(key14, fill="DarkSeaGreen2") def key_event15(event): c.itemconfig(key15, fill="DarkSeaGreen2") #bind the keys c.bind_all("<KeyPress-Print>", key_event13) c.bind_all("<KeyPress-Scroll_Lock>", key_event14) c.bind_all("<KeyPress-Pause>", key_event15) window.mainloop()

    I already tried to use:

    c.bind_all("event.keysym_num == 65377", key_event13)

    instead of

    c.bind_all("<KeyPress-Print>", key_event13)

    that doesn't work either...

    I hope someone here can help me. Best regards Simon

    Anyway to check for malicious pip install?/Am I worrying over nothing?

    Posted: 18 Dec 2021 06:51 PM PST

    I was trying to pip install matplotlib in my Linux terminal, I made a few typos and tried a few commands that didn't work/install Matplotlib. I got it figured out and installed. After a Google search I found that pip install can actually be dangerous because of malware. I already installed AVG antivirus and did a scan and it detected nothing. Am I likely worrying over nothing and is there a way I can check if I installed anything malicious?

    How do I erase lines in QBASIC?

    Posted: 18 Dec 2021 10:40 PM PST

    Hey guys! I was trying to make the game snake in QBASIC, I know it's an older language but it looks much easier and simpler then stuff like C, Assembly and Python for graphics. Anyway so far I can draw a box to the screen and when I press enter, I want to redraw it 1 place to the left. here's what I have so far

    SCREEN 7 ' Defining Starting Coordinates leftx = 100 lefty = 100 leftx2 = 100 lefty2 = 110 topx = 100 topy = 100 topx2 = 110 topy2 = 100 rightx = 110 righty = 110 rightx2 = 110 righty2 = 100 bottomx = 110 bottomy = 110 bottomx2 = 100 bottomy2 = 110 WHILE i < 1 ' Left Line LINE (leftx, lefty)-(leftx2, lefty2), 5 'Top line LINE (topx, topy)-(topx2, topy2), 5 ' Right line LINE (rightx, righty)-(rightx2, righty2), 5 ' Bottom line LINE (bottomx, bottomy)-(bottomx2, bottomy2), 5 INPUT junk leftx = leftx - 10: leftx2 = leftx2 - 10 topx = topx - 10: topx2 = topx2 - 10 rightx = rightx - 10: rightx2 = rightx2 - 10 bottomx = bottomx - 10: bottomx2 = bottomx2 - 10 WEND

    It DOES redraw the square on space to the left, however I can't seem to get rid of the previously drawn lines! Can someone help me solve this?

    How does the server work?

    Posted: 19 Dec 2021 02:22 AM PST

    I feel like I can understand how the client works, we make a request to the server which then sends the response and we interact with it through a browser.

    But, I do not understand how the server works. I want to understand what happens eg. after I push my code to Heroku, how do VM and containers get involved... Any good resources where I can learn more about how a server works?

    Is Microverse Legit?

    Posted: 19 Dec 2021 02:13 AM PST

    Recently I started to learn programming with the goal of landing a remote part time job. I bought a few courses on Udemy, downloaded computer science textbooks and plan to work on a couple of projects.

    I came across Microverse when I was looking for a bootcamp. Microverse offers to teach you programming, help you land a remote job and then you only pay for the bootcamp once you get a job that pays at least $1,000 per month.

    The Microverse bootcamp costs $15,000 and at least 15% of your monthly income will be allocated to paying off the bootcamp. The curriculum lasts for 10 months and you work for 8 hours a day.

    I would like to know if Microverse is worth it, because I am a full time Mechanical Engineering Undergrad and I don't know if its gonna be worth spending virtually all of my free time on Microverse or should I just self study programming and land a job using platforms such as LinkedIn?

    I have been solving problems on hackerRank. I didnot have any problems with those but I can't figure out how this input code block works. I am only familiar with bufferedReader and Scanner classes in java and input method in python

    Learning Python. Considering Java Script for front end.

    Posted: 18 Dec 2021 09:39 PM PST

    I passed the SAA-CO2 and have perhaps 50 hours of time dabbling with Python.
    I'm about half way through a popular Udemy Python course and so far--it's not bad as before I only barely hacked stuff together with C++.

    The thing is I want to build a CRUD app which pulls data from a REST API and puts it into an order tracking/info dashboard.
    I can sort of imagine the back end and not the front end whatsoever!

    I am not that good at Python and read that learning Java Script is a must if you want to do a front end while gaining skills.

    This is a bad question--but how long should one study their first serious language before pursuing a second one?

    fact = 1

    for i in (1,n):

    fact = fact*i

    return fact

    factorial(5)
