    Working for a company has been a lot different than I thought learn programming

    Working for a company has been a lot different than I thought learn programming


    Working for a company has been a lot different than I thought

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 10:22 AM PST

    So I've been working as an API dev for the past 6 months in a large company. It's quite interesting to see how much different it is from what I thought.

    Experience

    At first I presumed that in corporate, everything was super strict based on how to write your code perfectly, how to use the right tools effectively and everything had to be THEIR way. But in my experience (and please note that I do understand this differs from company to company) it's completely different. People give me the job, expect me to figure it out based on security standards and done.

    Then when I have questions, I approach a senior and half the time he's not even sure, so we're kind of just stackoverflowing together while he tries to connect the dots in places where I can't.

    The point

    The reason for me sharing this is to tell you that if you're anything like me, there's no need to worry. If you love to learn and are passionate about programming, it's literally just like a Computer Science class, but with a salary.

    I Can't convert logic into code

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 01:14 AM PST

    I'm into programming for 3 years now and have built many apps and programs in Python.

    I'm really passionate about machine learning and chose to pursue my career in it.

    The problem I'm facing lately is that the logic to solve the problem is in my mind but i find it real hard to code that solution

    Any tips? (P. S. I do learn the language good before coding in it)

    31, no work experience. Want to get better at coding and pursue a career in this field. What's my best option?

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 03:48 AM PST

    Hello everyone,

    I'm a 31, German, and hope that some of you may be able to offer some advice on how to best continue to improve my programming knowledge and start a career in the field.

    My past is a bit difficult to explain and I don't want to bore you with too much detail (I dropped out of school due to depression etc., absolutely no work experience at my age amongst other things) and leaves me uncertain about what to do next.

    I've been learning Python on my own for the past year, initially by completing courses on edx, then moved on to just start working on my own small projects and ideas, just simple things that interested me (an app with a gui framework, a little game with Pygame, a bot, something with Matplotlib etc.).

    Currently I'm trying to broaden my knowledge and find another larger project I would like to work on. It's the first time that I genuinely enjoy what I'm doing and am motivated to continue to learn.

    I'm at a cross-roads, especially as my financial situation is a bit tight and I'm trying to figure out the most viable path forward. The general ideas that I have considered so far include:

    1. Umschulung: Fachinformatik – Anwendungsentwicklung [a German way to go back to school in a different field]
    2. duale Ausbildung: Fachinformatik – Anwendungsentwicklung [a German „trade school" in conjunction with first work experience]
    3. Bootcamps (are there any that you can recommend, especially given my limited budget and living in Germany?)
    4. Praktikum [internship]
    5. Finding a job while continuing to learn on my own and making the switch into the field down the line

    There are obviously many paths with varying pros and cons, especially at my stage, and I would be curious to hear from others that have gone through similar situations or just thoughts / advice any of you may have would be greatly appreciated.

    No matter which one I'll ultimately choose I'm obviously going to continue learning on my own as well. Maybe you even have ideas on what I could or rather should learn next to steer me in the right direction.

    e: should maybe mention i've got "mittlere reife" [10 years of high school]

    Thanks a lot for reading!

    Which language is best for creating relatively easy and beautiful apps for both Android and iOS

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 01:46 PM PST

    I wanna create an app for both platforms. I have some experience creating Android apps with Android Studio and multi-platform apps with Unity. Now I wanna create an app for both, with features such as login, phone verification, email verification, picture uploading etc.

    I'm currently working as a front end dev where I mainly use HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Typescript and a bit of React. I really like the way you create UI and animations in HTML/CSS and I think it ties well with JS as well.

    Which language would you recommend for creating a multi-platform app. By multi-platform I am speaking mainly of Android/iOS. Web apps would also be nice to do in the future but for now, Android/iOS is more than enough

    I have looked into Flutter and Xamarin but I can't really tell which is best and most efficient

    Chrome Extension that allows you to record part of web history as bookmark folder

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 07:42 AM PST

    Recently, I went looking for how to do something in my code and came across a bunch of other stuff that wasn't the answer, but related stuff I wanted to learn. So I created RabbitHole https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/rabbit-hole/jhjfjpfnbkoebmgamgfomaodjjbakehb/

    It allows you to take a timeframe of your web history and save it as a bookmarks folder so you can get back to it later and hopefully stay out of that rabbit hole.

    Difference in certifications for cs50?

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 10:01 AM PST

    Hello! Hopefully this subreddit is fine for this question... I'm going to be taking cs50 followed by cs50 Python/JS course and happen to notice you can pay $313 for both courses and a professional certificate vs taking them separately for free?

    I'm just wondering exactly what the difference in the certifications is or difference in general? Thanks! Sorry if this subreddit is not the right one..

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 09:06 AM PST

    Hello Everyone!

    I am going start programming from today, I am starting from the very basic.

    I thought it would be nice to write it publicly to hold some accountability on myself.

    My Target is to get placed before the end of the year.

    This month goal (Feb 2022): I will start learning Java basics and then start solving some basic questions of Arrays and Strings.

    Some Background about myself: I am currently studying B.Tech in IT, 3rd year 6th sem.

    What are my options?

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 09:50 AM PST

    I'll start of by saying I'm 25 and into programming. I'm more into game development but from research it's not the best industry cause less money and insane hours so I decided to pursue web development. My question comes from the fact that I just came out prison with a violent charge and from other research I've done is that work in fields like this don't take kindly to felons especially violent crimes because of security checks or something like that. I love programming but I don't know whether it's a realistic field for me cause of my past.

    Keeping on track and digital organization while learning with ADHD.

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 11:55 AM PST

    First want to apologize if this is not appropriate for this sub. To start, like many, I am new to programming and am studying on my own along with help now and then from a friend who has completed a boot camp. It's going very well and I'm finding the logical concepts and problem solving very easy to pick up in a short amount of time. Everything just seems to click well with how I already think about things. I'm frankly upset I hadn't explored coding sooner. Anyway.

    What I am struggling with is keeping track of all the different programs and various files that I'm working with. I often have to stop myself from trying to pick up something new and redirect my attention back to unfinished exercises, books, videos, and etc. This is normal and expected with ADHD. What comes along with that, is object permanence and working memory issues. Basically if I don't see it in front of my face, I'm likely to forget it exists. As you may imagine, this leads to tons of open tabs in multiple windows, lots of desktop icons, and post it notes everywhere. Which then leads to even more overwhelm and clutter with the billion things in front of me and on my screen. My gut feeling is that I'm not organizing anything effectively. Yet working in a single file in front of me, I can be very organized and detailed.

    Basically I'm wondering if anyone has any tips or suggestions for this kind of thing? Any others with diagnosed moderate to severe ADHD that manage these issues successfully? Are there any classes or resources that specifically deal with digital organization? Appreciate any responses if this post stays up. Thanks!

    Does anyone know what book this question comes from or what approach to use.

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 03:12 PM PST

    Write a code in python given that n,d,k will output the 4 digits of the decimal expansion of nd starting at position k.

    Input Format

    A single line in the format:n d k

    Output Format

    A single line containing the 4 consecutive digits starting from position k of the decimal expansion of the fractional part of , with no spaces separating them.

    Sample Input 0

    1 7 3

    Sample Output 0

    8571

    Explanation 0

    Up to the first 10 digits, the decimal expansion for is 0.1428571428. The 4 digits starting from digit 3 are 8, 5, 7, 1, so we output those on a single line with no spaces between them.

    Solution must be optimized for very LARGE or recurring fractions or large values of k. k can be up to 10^40

    Say you had to go for a programming Certification in 2022...

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 11:52 AM PST

    I know this is not about 'titles' but more about 'proven skills,' but let's say you had enough time in your current job to pursue a new skill and expand your knowledge in such a competitive field.

    Context: I'm a self-taught Python programmer (at least I think so) that changed my previous profession after a Data Science Bootcamp. I'm working as a data analyst but barely touching python, which is my absolute passion. Im mainly doing something related to marketing, and altho I use a bunch of SQL, I never really dive that deep with it...

    My plan is to stay at my current position (it's decent, not perfect tho) for a couple of more months, maybe a year, and since I have some free time, I thought of using some of it to get certified in one of these:

    - Microsoft Certified: Azure Fundamentals
    - AWS Certified Developer - Associate
    - Professional Cloud Architect

    - Something related to Salesforce ?

    Or any other that you guys could recommend that somehow could relate with data, python etc...

    Or any other that you guys could recommend that somehow could relate with data, python, etc... I find it here and there, but since many of my friends are getting some certifications and seem to be doing great + enjoying it, maybe it is worth thinking about.

    What would YOU do?

    Expose a locally running web application to internet in C/C++

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 04:41 AM PST

    I would like to develop an application able to expose on the internet a web application that is running locally on the computer using the HTTP Tunneling technique (such as ngrok or localtunnel.me), I have found various articles that explain how it works from one point theoretically, but I did not understand well how to act from the programming point of view, I would like to use C/C ++, thanks.

    To someone who just entered high school, what should I learn and read?

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 04:05 PM PST

    The title.

    I'm aiming to become a Full-stack web developer. I have a basic knowledge in general progamming languages syntax, but I'm really into JavaScript now. I'm already understand a bunch of methods, types, operators, but aside the language concepts I know close to nothing about general programming concepts like OOP, and most of the language design stuff. I also am interested a lot in algorithms and data structures. I don't even know a thing about them, but I know they will help me to develop solutions to problems, and that's what botters me the most: being stuck in logical/mathematical problems or even identify what I should know to solve them. Knowing how to start in general.

    I obviously know almost no math.

    So, what kind of books/articles or content in general should I search for? Programming concepts (which ones?), understand how languages work, stuff that would add to my problem understanding skills (algorithms, data structures, etc), math (how much?) or even focus on my actual language and do a lot of problems in sites like exercism?

    What's the best time complexity I can hope for in writing this algorithm?

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 03:59 PM PST

    Hi! My knowledge of algorithm design is very limited, so I was hoping you could help me understand how much room for optimization I have here. The problem is as follows:

    - Given a list such as [1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1] - Find the last 1 in the first sequence of 1s (In this example: 3rd item) - The first item is always a 1. All others can be 1 or 0

    At the moment I'm just walking the list until I find a 0, so O(n). That works for me because timing is most critical when the list is [1, 0, 0, 0...] But my most common scenario is a list full of 1s, so walking the list seems foolish.

    Do you think it should be possible to achieve O(log n)? If not, what's the best time complexity I can aspire to?

    BTW, in case you're interested, I'm using Python.

    Hello peeps! Im new here and I have a couple question and I would like to know if its even possible what I want to do.

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 03:57 PM PST

    Hi! Im from Canada! Im 24! Im currently lackin behind in school. Im only half way through high school. A couple month ago I realised I want to have a future and be productive in society. I love understading problems and fixin them. I think I was addicted to gaming thus my drop out at highschool. I regret it now. I wish I stayed in school and went for a bachelor in computer science. I currently when back to adult school to finish highschool and get my diploma and started learning the basic of python. I can see a lot of use for it. From my understaing I cant go wrong with python as my first language. I see a lot potential in me to be great at programming. I love messing around with my game files and finding fix to my problem on my computer. I dont stop until things are fixed. My biggest fear is to try something new that I have no knowledge in. I need to live victories and see myself grow. Currently I have had no job and im stresssing that eventually I wont have my momma helpin with my rent. Is it possible to get something out of me in coding in 2-3year and have a job knowing what I told you? Did anyone get a programming job without a high school diploma? Is it worth finishing up my high school if i have 3year left of school or should i focus myself fully on self taught coding? Where do I start if my love is thinkering? ❤️ much love xx

    Small projects to practice TDD with?

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 07:10 AM PST

    I want to make a website using TDD. I've been practicing using TDD with katas but I still don't know how to test that different parts of a project work well together. I want to practice with a couple of small projects. I'll take a look at the project, and then try it myself and check my implementation with the repository.

    I'm looking for projects with good test coverage, of less than 5k lines, written in JavaScript, Python, Go or Rust. Where can I find this kind of projects? Github advanced search doesn't have the ability to look for number of lines of code or test coverage.

    This is what I've found so far:

    npm modules usually have tests: - JavaScript, 1.8k lines, 77% coverage: https://github.com/jshint/fixmyjs

    katas, exercises, challenges. Not really what I'm looking for: - exercism has a repository for each language, with exercises and tests. It would be nice if there was an awesome list with many projects but the closest thing I've seen is an awesome list about agile development with very little about TDD.

But how to give the user the ability to chat with the bot? Make it so that the user can write something, and the bot can accept this information and respond.

    Problems with <studio.h> and other CS50 tools in CS50 IDE

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 09:48 AM PST

    Hello, I´m watching the CS50 videos on youtube to learn programming and when I try to recreate the programs they make, an error mesage appears that says I don´t have CS50 studio and other CS50 tools. (I´m doing all of this in CS50 IDE).

    The error message that appears after i type: make (name of the program):

    clang -ggdb3 -O0 -std=c11 -Wall -Werror -Wextra -Wno-sign-compare -Wno-unused-parameter -Wno-unused-variable -Wshadow Programa.c -lcrypt -lcs50 -lm -o Programa

    Programa.c:1:10: fatal error: 'c./s50.h' file not found

    #include <c./s50.h>

    ^~~~~~~~~~

    1 error generated.

    make: *** [<builtin>: Programa] Error 1

    It´s seems like I don´t have the CS50 tools downloaded but I don´t know where I can get them.

    What other "secondary" skills/tools would you say are important for programming in general?

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 03:38 PM PST

    With "secondary skill" I mean skills besides the main language you want to use, technical concepts, soft skills and all of that. Maybe databases, networking, linux, others?

    I am not trying to limit myself, in fact I plan to learn linux and networking later.

    I know everything is helpful in some way but I just want to priorize what is important to get a job, then I can learn whatever I want.

    btw: I want to do smth related with data science, I know that databases and math are really important there but my question is about programming in general. Thanks.

    Best Courses to learn

    Posted: 06 Feb 2022 09:40 AM PST

    Hello,

    So delving into coding as I find it pretty interesting and I like learning. Currently looking to learn Javascript, HTML and CSS or web development as I think that's a good starting point and would visually be engaging.

    I have been going onto Sololearn and Cocademy and like it but would like to learn from something more structured and designed by someone, happy to pay up to £30 for a good course.

    Any recommendations which course or website to look at?

    Genuinely enjoying myself so would like a one stop shop I can learn off for now as a beginner.
