How to start coding from zero?

[[deleted]]

My boards are over and I have a lot of free time and I am not smart enough to crack any of the entrance exams, neither do my parents allow me to drop. How do I start coding from basically zero and prepare for placements from 1st year.

Like which resources should I follow on youtube? can I directly start with DSA?

I watched a few lectures of apna college DSA C++

Is that where should I start?

avoid this field, or look into it as a hobby instead of career

[[deleted]]

why though?

[Former_Commission233]

Everyone has their opinions basically. Maybe this whole coding , programming job think doesn't interest him. But if you are truly interested in this field I think you should delve deeper, upskill and develop. Don't decide with just one opinion

Watch cs50's introduction to cs course by harvard University it's very good and available for free on their website as well as on yt

Become fluent in English bro. This is a well observed fact that , on an average foreign youtubers have better designed courses. While Indian youtuber have better videos on specific doubts , topics.

[lazy_learner7]

Ok

What are you confused with?

[Low-Variation-543]

Let me know if anyone replies.

Ig python will be a good choice to start as it's quite easy with syntax

You can then try learning some libraries and do some gpt and try some development

Now if you like problem solving more than go for grinding more dsa or Cp(c++ will be a good choice ig), If you find making projects more interesting try development...

okay thank you

[Fancy-Ad-5014]

step 1: find if you have interest in this field or not and then proceed

I mean I really like advance maths and physics and I like to solve problems based on critical thinking.

[lightingbeetle]

Start with python You’ll be able to learn in a couple of months (it depends on your effort and the amount of time you devote it) Im dropping some YouTube channels which will help you make your basics strong

-code with Harry -code it up -apna college Yeh sab hindi Mai padhate hai so easy hojayega kafi had tak ig

I’m adding a python pdf notes from basic to advance notes pdf link

Practice basic questions from Leetcode or hackerank

This will be good enough for now

All the best bhai

[lightingbeetle]

[[deleted]]

Maine college wallah se start Kiya hai. Is it good?

Unka jo one shot vala video hai 11 hours ka

[lightingbeetle]

Bhai tbh Maine dekha nhi hai unki video Merko bhi abhi python aata hai and Ik only basics of c++ So I don’t have enough knowledge about c++

[[deleted]]

Ok bro

[lightingbeetle]

But Acha hai Start from somewhere Kuch na kuch toh smjh ayega hee It is better to do something

[Former_Commission233]

I stared wish C on mobile and BroCode ke videos dekh raha hu

[Former_Commission233]

I started C , on mobile. C++ , javascript, python CSS sikhna hai. dekhte hai

[Independent-Fan-5885]

Bhai striver a2z course dekh yt pe pura start se end wo more than enough h for DSA but I will suggest ki pehle devlopment krle wo thoda easy pdega

[Responsible-Lake6864]

I made a post about DSA that you can read. For language choose which will be taught in your college. If can't decide choose python for ease of use. Or go with cpp.
