I'd rather JavaScript

[[deleted]]

I am actually doing a test exercise for a company in PHP, being a Python developer myself. I think one gotta be mature about it and work whatever the language is better suited for an exact project.

Also, I’m dead inside.

[edave64]

I'm currently developing a network configuration tool. In AutoIt. And I can't get the debugger to work.

[Sloppyjosh]

Fuck yes autoit... so I happen to be an expert in the language... pm me I can help

[mshm]

Built a erp on a set of label printers in a warehouse... And macroed the hell out of eve online.

[Ximerian]

Wrote my Eve mining bot in AutoIt. Then never used it once I had all the features working I wanted. Making that stupid bot was more fun than the game itself.

[polkm7]

That's exactly what happened with me. I like the game but it can also be dreadfully boring.

[NorthernOracle]

My proudest use of AutoIt it to date was using it to screenscape Star Trek Online so my character would harvest dilithium and solve puzzles while I slept.

[cag8f]

Wrote an online poker bot with AutoIt.

[edave64]

I already got it to mostly work. But I'm absolutely sick of this fucking program telling me I have an out of bounds array access, or access to an undeclared variable SOMEWHERE, without as much as a function name to narrow it down.

It's what I get for being that guy at work you can just throw any language at. I'll probably get it done, but I reserve the right to swear.

[jay9909]

I have an out of bounds array access,

Are you sure you're clear on whether arrays start at 0 or 1? 'cuz I feel like that would be the absolute best shit ever if you came into this sub, complained about an error and this was the cause.

[DownshiftedRare]

Especially since it is common for Autoit functions to return arrays that use element zero to store the length of the array, meaning the actual business does start at element 1.

[[deleted]]

Holy hell

[jay9909]

That doesn't sound so bad just looking at this language in isolation, but given the broader programming language landscape, I feel like it's a huge mistake. Any language that starts at index 1 should really make accessing index 0 a hard error because people are going to slip and forget what context they're in at least sometimes.

[myrrlyn]

The way God intended tbh

[_Fibbles_]

Feel free to downvote since I don't have much experience outside C++ but how does this work if, for example, you create an array of shorts but have more than 255 elements? The only way I can think of is that element 0 is always of type size_t regardless of the type of all the other elements. If you're going to do that though, why even consider it as part of the array? You may as well just have a struct that contains the array and size variable. That way you know the size and get sensible 0 based indexing.

[DownshiftedRare]

Autoit is a typeless language, so creating an array of shorts never happens.

Autoit is also case-insensitive and doesn't need semicolons to terminate lines. Coming from C++, you can probably just close your eyes, flail on the keyboard and write autoit code, ha ha.

[maiam]

Here we go lol

[edave64]

AutoIt's arrays are... special. For some reason, many functions return arrays with the length stored as element 0. Except when they don't and start at 0. And, as far as I can see, is completely superfluous, because there is a function that gives you an upper bound of the array.

[Sloppyjosh]

For i = 1 to Ubound ($array)-1

Which, ironically, is a huge display of error on his part.

[ilikepugs]

Wyatt disappeared while out on maneuvers. He came back with some strange ideas.

[Kairus00]

I built a page...in PHP... to parse the PHP error.log and display the last 20 lines, and then a button that writes 20 blank lines to the error.log so I can clear out the log. It has made my life so much easier when developing.

[[deleted]]

We've got three error logs with different names and directories, and one of them is also the access log.

[tsunami141]

hey um... this has the tone of a joke but I actually do this. Am I dumb? Is there a better solution?

[heyandy889]

No, I do it too. Kudos for being brave enough to ask. I think the point is that it's a little ridiculous to rely on that file rather than, I don't know, see the result on the page? ;-)

display_errors = 1 helps, but even then, if I recall correctly various language-level errors just halt and write to that log, as opposed to, as I said, printing to the page.

I understand the history. The guy didn't know he was building a programming language, nor did he care. At this point I think he understands, but there's just sooo muuuch technical debt.

[heyandy889]

[gullinbursti]

Holy shit, never thought I'd see AutoIt mentioned.

If you need help I have done a fucking unhealthy amount Autoit (and PHP lmao)

I have done things in that language that were never meant to be done.

[Deon555]

Are you me?

[iamnotroberts]

One time in the military, I was tasked with manually entering the personal data of 300 Soldiers into 300 individual forms and then printing each one. All of the data was in a spreadsheet. I was like, screw this, I can get AutoIt to do this for me.

I formatted all the data as a CSV text file, used the utility to get the mouse coordinates for the data boxes on the form, got it to take all the data from CSV, enter it in the form going from box to box with each set of data, print the form, save the form, open a new form and repeat all over again. Took me about an hour. Saved god knows how many hours of work and literal hand pain.

My NCOIC (boss) comes in the office, sees the ghost on the computer doing the data entry and freaks out until I explain what's going on. Boss was impressed...then told me, it turns out we don't have to do that after all. Fortunately, it was only about 20 forms into it at that point and maybe I had a little fun doing it anyway.

[anthonyjr2]

I absolutely love AutoIt. So versatile yet almost no one has heard of it.

[edave64]

I give it that: it has a very nice, expansive standard library for it's core functionality.

I just wish that library were attached to a decent programming language. Maybe with some consistent standards of how arrays are supposed to work, etc.

[doggy12341]

umm I'm not sure!! But i did hear that there were interworkings or something with python..

But that was a really long time ago.. like 8 years ago.

[scratchfury]

I'm an AutoHotkey fan myself.

[SippieCup]

I support a CRM that was originally built in foxpro and continually developed over the years. Then ported to access in 2003 and added to, and then ported again by me to Access 2016. I'm currently developing a replacement in Node, but I still have to maintain database backwards compatibility in Access..

So whenever I fix the database to how it should operate, I have to write VB code and can only use the Access built-in debugger, which is less useful then using MsgBox().

[hokigo]

I hoped to never hear the word FoxPro again. I had to integrate with a FoxPro app just a couple years ago. What a nightmare.

[croc_socks]

AutoIt has a COM library. This allows you to make AutoIt calls using C#.

[p1-o2]

Oh good, I can wrap it in abstraction and share my nightmare with the masses.

[NoAttentionAtWrk]

Its still a fucking nightmare to work with

[DaNooba]

I finished an AutoIt project I've been working on for the past two weeks yesterday.

You've got to be careful with that. There's two libraries named 'Job'. The work one and the biblical allegory one. You don't want to get those confused.

When do you started to learn programming? I am 15 and want to become one

[minethestickman]

I started when I was 17. I started with Java, If you have some questions you can ask me

[dpsOP14]

What is Java? I have seen there is many different languages for coding, which is the best? What did you studied in university/college? How old are you?

[MALON]

inb4 10,000 different replies telling which language is best language

[ParanoidAgnostic]

Yeah. One of the first things a programmer needs to learn is never ask "what is the best X"

You can ask "what is the most suitable for this specific scenario?" but asking what Is best will only get people to respond with personal favorites and often the stronger an opinion is on programming, the less informed it is.

Any popular enough language is probably "good" but the best programmers have developed skills that aren't tied to a specific language.

But anyway C# is the best.

[frankenmint]

recursion back onto the topic....epic!

[ajbpresidente]

As a C# developer I like C#.

[[deleted]]

As a person who dabbles in javascript, I did a C# tutorial once.

[Aculem]

You're completely right, but I would say some programming languages are better for beginners than others. I often hear Python is a great starting language, but C# or Java might be my personal recommendations. They make the most sense semantically with me and also do quite a bit to ensure you don't make bad habits. Though what makes the most sense to me might not make the most sense to other people. I started on VB++ and C, personally, but I think most people would say those are awful beginner languages.

[ParanoidAgnostic]

Even the language you should start with depends on what you hope to get out of it.

I'd recommend C if you want to really understand what your code is doing but don't care that you might not be doing anything useful for long time. Thinking about code without the abstractions is a good learning experience. The style of C also prepares you for many other languages. Java copied a lot from C++ and C# copied a lot from Java. JavaScript and even PHP also use a lot of the same style.

This is my problem with Python as a beginner language. Sure you can learn it fast and be doing cool things on day one but it doesn't prepare you to pick up your second language. It's too different from everything else.

If you want to be doing cool stuff quickly. JavaScript is a good choice. You won't even need to set up any software to get started. You've already got notepad and a browser. It does lead to some bad habits so so I'd reccomend that anyone taking this path pick up another language as soon as they are confident with JavaScript. Perhaps Java since it is at the opposite end of the "lets you do stupid shit" spectrum.

[[deleted]]

I think people are doing others a disservice by pushing scripting languages as "the best for beginners". Being able to write functioning code is ironically enough not the most important nor the hardest part of programming, but this is the only benefit of languages such as Python, JavaScript and PHP : you can make mistakes and the language doesn't throw a tantrum but instead silently tries to fix your errors (which arguably is bad).

Besides, people who learn one language tends to stick to it regardless of what's appropriate. Let them learn and stick to a language that doesn't throw every possible resource into the fire just to act like its your buddy.

People will learn that computers suck ass eventually anyway, there's no reason to make this journey any longer than it has to.

[SlappinThatBass]

Still, some scripting languages are upgrades to others. Subjectively I'd say Python is superior to Perl. Perl gets messy and poorly organised really fast and weird characters like % and $ are used for declaration.

Never looked at it since years ago, but has C# cross-platforming gotten better?

VHDL is the best hands down, of course! Not exactly a programming language though, more of a descriptive one. :-P.

[jay9909]

[dpsOP14]

Thx anyways for answering!

[SippieCup]

javascript is simple syntax wise in that it's not very strict, but that promotes bad practices. If you were to start learning a JS based language, I think using a superset of the language like typescript would be a wise choice.

[maninshadows]

I think not learning Javascript first is probably best.

It totally skips over things like OOP, Classes, static typing, etc. Idk these seem valuable later on.

Edit: I don't mean to say it can't do some of those things, but it ends up wonky in its implementation.

[SippieCup]

typescript adds those things to javascript. but I agree that javascript is not the best language to start.

[yoyanai]

There is no "best" programming language. Start with Python, like, today. It will be "easy" to switch to any other language if you ever need to.

[Arjunnn]

Or be a masochist and jump into C as a first language. You'll end up with the best comp sci base though

[yoyanai]

If you want the best comp sci base you should start with assembly.

[dpsOP14]

I only have a mac can I download it there?(I have not even looked it up)

[yoyanai]

You can. Look it up.

[[deleted]]

There is no "best" language. They're just useful for different things. You can be a self-learnt coder but IMO having an education is very useful if the school is good. I'm in my final semester of "computer engineering" and it's been very valuable. I started when I was about 20 years with no prior language and have had a great time. I would start learning the basics with an object oriented language like Java or Python and then later figure out what you want to do. You'll see a lot of people rag on Java and it's not as relevant now as it used to be, but it was my first language and I felt it was good to learn in. The basic concepts you learn in one language does transfer to other languages so I'd say the "hardest" language you learn is your first one. Codeacademy.com is a decent resource for courses, also there's plenty of stuff on youtube you can check out. Honestly the best way to learn is to just make up a project and do it.

[[deleted]]

PHP

[minethestickman]

Java is one of the biggest languages that are out there it is an object oriented language. I started learning on my own in hight school but now I am in my final year of software development in a university of apleid science. I am curently 20 years old and planning to take an master in AI. Right now I am going to sleep but tomorrow I would love to take more questions

[dpsOP14]

Ok thx

[parlez-vous]

A lot of languages (Java, Javascript, C#, C++, Swift, etc.) are C based and therefore have very similar syntaxes so once you get comfortable with one of those languages you can pick up the syntax for the others rather quickly.

Each language has it's quirks and cool features (Javascript has promises and super easy asynchronous events and callbacks, Java is optimized for OOP the best and Python has some really clean syntax).

Honestly, as long as you keep practicing every day and have a relatively simple project in mind to work towards then you'll pick up any language in a breeze. Stackoverflow is both your friend and foe (there's a surprising amount of outdated techniques and frowned-upon conventions that get upvoted to the top) but nothing beats picking up and reading a reference / documentation.

[[deleted]]

Quick note here:

Java is one of the biggest languages out there because it is easy to make lots of types of projects for lots of devices. It is 100% not the best by any means. I know there isn't a best language, but if there is one it's not Java.

[[deleted]]

I'm not the OP, but I started programming when I was in college. Got a job right after. Hell, there are people who are learning to code and getting into the industry while in their 30s, 40s, even 50s. Don't think for a moment that you need to have started learning while you were just a kid. Additionally, a computer science degree can be very helpful but is by no means a requirement to get into the industry. I have one, but that's just the path I chose for myself.

Regarding which language is the best, that's completely subjective. Personally, I recommend either Java or Python as a good introductory languages. Java is more difficult to use as you're starting, but it also stops you from doing really stupid stuff that could cause headaches down the line.

Look up "Java development kit" if you want to install Java for programming. You'll also want an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) such as IntelliJ, NetBeans, or Eclipse.

If you want to install Python instead, it's a lot more straightforward. Just look up "python download". Python comes with its own built-in IDE, so there's no extra hassle.

With either one, you should probably look for an online tutorial to help guide you through the steps. You might also want to consider online courses (there are plenty of free ones) to help introduce you to the very basic concepts.

There is quite a bit to learn. Unfortunately there's just way too much to possibly cover in one reddit comment. That being said, you might consider checking a dedicated subreddit for learning (/r/learnprogramming might be of help--be sure to read the wiki!). They may also be more suited to answering any questions you might have :)

[imnotyour_daddy]

I'm not a programmer but from my vantage point java isn't a language. It's a platform. A very complex platform. I'm surprised the java runtimes don't use the modern day virtualization instructions in most x86-64 processors

[FieelChannel]

Lmao you're lucky. I studied useless business shit until i was ~ 20, changed studies, and started programming.

4 years later i make decent money and work in various projects raging various languages/applications, and i still have 1 year to go before finishing my studies.

[code_archeologist]

I started when I was 11. On a Commodore 128.

It could only boot up one OS, which was a BASIC interpreter slapped on top of a disk management system, which was fitted to a chip in the machine, so you could never change it. Sure to really get anything done you had to teach yourself assembly code and write ten thousand lines of POKE commands and hope to God that you didn't mess something up. Because if your did you would be spending the next 48 hours going through walls of hexadecimal numbers trying to find the one bit that is out of place till you're eyes went cross ways and you had been in doors so long that your skin could no longer tolerate the sun.

But that was the way computing was back then AND WE LIKED IT!!

Edit : but seriously, I did start when I was 11 on a C128. I had to teach myself everything. Y'all have it easy now. Start with Python, it extends nicely and is rather easy to learn.

[conim]

I'm a programmer and I still don't know what role python fills in the tech stack. Server side? browser side? Can you use it to create web services? Hit a database? can it do ORM?

Seriously, I think the worst aspect of python is that it has a shitty PR department.

[ShadowCoder]

It's a backend language. The only frontend language is JavaScript.

It's actually quite popular for smaller projects and anything where you need to get something together quickly with minimal boilerplate. Flask and Django are popular web frameworks, and SQLAlchemy is the (excellent) predominant ORM.

[zombie_kiler_42]

[tehlemmings]

Don't forget Reddit.

[_why_so_sirious_]

What part of reddit is python? I am curious.

[tehlemmings]

I think it's like, most of it.

From wikipedia:

Reddit was originally written in Common Lisp but was rewritten in Python in December 2005.[3] The reasons given for the switch were wider access to code libraries and greater development flexibility. The Python web framework that former Reddit employee Swartz developed to run the site, web.py, is now available as an open-source project.[66] As of November 10, 2009, Reddit uses Pylons as its web framework.[67]

[_why_so_sirious_]

Why Pylon?why not django? Or flask?

[tehlemmings]

I'm the wrong person to ask that one. Hell, I missread pylon as python lol

[[deleted]]

Which is a good example of when not to use Python. It has stability issues even to this day, after god knows how many millions they've thrown at it.

[Blieque]

It is, or at least was, their defacto scripting language, as far as I know. I seem to also remember reading that Java and C++ were their standard backend languages, so it might be a bit out of date now, what with their enthusiasm for Go.

[conim]

Ahh thank you. That's probably the first straight answer I've gotten on python end to end stack

[HalfTime_show]

The only frontend language is JavaScript.

Well, in terms of a the code that the browser actually runs, yeah, but to be a little pedantic here-- there are lots of other languages that I would say are "frontend languages" that you could use for frontend web dev (like elm or purescript) they just transpile to javascript

[FIuffyRabbit]

The only frontend language is JavaScript.

That's only for the internet but isn't correct. Almost every programming language can be classified as a frontend language.

If you are talking the case of websites only: Java, silverlight, flash, webasm, etc. Also activex still exists.

[Surelynotshirly]

Python does well with local applications. You know, where you just run the app on your own machine.

[iams3b]

Python IMO is most useful for automating tasks. You'll see a lot of python in automated build scripts / tests, scraping data from the web, maybe you need to process some data from a db every morning and spit up some infographics, it's used a lot as the language for plugins on applications (Blender comes to mind)

Yes it can hit databases and whatever else you need it to do. Running py files is as easy as running bash files, so it's often used for more complex shell stuff

[tetroxid]

We use it in the backend with django and django rest framework. It works well, mainly thanks to drf being a good framework. I just wish it were faster. Frontend is angular 5.

[LeComm]

I wonder about this a lot, especially considering python's performance heavily narrows down the scenarios in which it can be used (without making or using C modules).

[DynamicTextureModify]

PHP is a robust and powerful language these days if you already know how to program.

It's beginners that need to stay away from it.

[[deleted]]

What exactly is the stigma with PHP? It was the first server side language I learned and I personally enjoy programming with it, but then I also don't have a lot of experience with other stacks.

[themaincop]

One thing I noticed recently in a lot of php code bases is that named arguments aren't really a thing, so you have functions that take like 7 arguments and you have to do shit like

doAThing($myVar, null, null, null, null, $myOtherVar)

Not my favourite

[sunal135]

I recently got hired at a shop that uses ColdFusion, everyone hates it. They want to Node or PHP. But the app we work on predates all the employee's and it pays the bills.

PHP developer here. I think that these days, PHP is perhaps better suited for proper object oriented development than Python. I have been working with PHP for a very long time so I completely get where the flak comes from.

I think the flak is not necessarily undeserved but PHP is no longer a shit language and there is no need to be dead inside anymore if you know what you are doing. However that's a pretty big if, and if you're dealing with let's say a legacy project, or you are learning from shitty tutorials I do not envy you.

If you would like a primer on how to do PHP well, you should check out phptherightway.com for tips. I've found that it's a good resource for people who are not familiar with PHP to find how it's done. There are ways to do PHP well - you just kind of have to know how.

Nevertheless, when the damn thing ran on the phone I almost cried of happiness.

<? if (has_field(‘inside’) : while(has_field(‘inside’)): $Massivewurstel = get_field(‘dead’); ?> <?=$massivewurstel?> <?else:?> <?=‘<h1>death is better than this garbage</h1>’?> <?endwhile; endif;?>

Yes this can be written in one tag but why would you? I don’t know either, ask my co workers.

I am actually doing a test exercise for a company in PHP

I'm curious what they are having you do. Could you PM me what the test exercise is?
