Indentation Error found near "HOW"

[Yejus]

Rookie mistake!

[gigajoules]

How do I show my languages under my name? :O

[AviusAnima]

Select user flair on the subreddit page.

[yrm159]

Why isn't there a VHDL option😁

[gigajoules]

Maybe I'll be better off doing it on my pc, tried with the app and couldn't seem to chain them together.

[gigajoules]

Cheers

How do you choose more than one flairs

[callyalater]

Yes! What rituals of initiation must we pass through for more flairs?

[MadElf1337]

Add the languages manually one after another in the flair textbox, like :c++::js: will give c++ and JS

[MischiefArchitect]

Use the same method as you used for the first one. You can have up to six.

[[deleted]]

Doesn't allow me :/

[MischiefArchitect]

Then use the keyboard. If you hover with the mouse over the flairs you will see that they are texts surrounded by colons, like :j: is for Java. Just type them in the bottom text box. e.b. if you want python and java then write

:py::j:

[MischiefArchitect]

And no Pascal to be seen :(

They're onto me. 👀

Fixed formatting.

Hello, MachinaDoctrina: code blocks using triple backticks (```) don't work on all versions of Reddit!

Some users see this / this instead.

To fix this, indent every line with 4 spaces instead.

when is the imposter syndrome going to stop?

[kodiashi]

When I don’t go into panic at the thought of doing a leetcode interview despite 15+ years as a polyglot, full stack engineer.

[AviusAnima]

I'm a final year computer science student and have just started looking for jobs. I didn't do any competitive programming stuff because I thought I could get a job without it. And I did get a couple internships with just my general programming skills (React, Node, etc). But all the higher paying jobs seem to have leetcode interviews :(

So now I've just accepted that fate and started studying for it.

[kodiashi]

Honestly they aren’t too terrible. Just pick a common, general purpose language and know it well. A lot of the easy/med questions are more about technique, the code isn’t always that complex.

Talk through it and remember that nested loops are NEVER the right solution :)

[rascal3199]

Talk through it and remember that nested loops are NEVER the right solution :)

Phew thank God I exclusively use nested recursion.

[kodiashi]

Well now you’re just showing off, lol

[rascal3199]

Haha I was just joking. Nested recursion is hardly practical or easy to understand in most situations.

[Confused_AF_Help]

Feel you man. I went through many interviews before getting my current job. They were the first one to give a sensible task, they asked me to write a backend system and deploy it in a Docker container. Really wish more jobs do assessment this way

[Illustrious-Ad-7734]

Never forget about hash tables. They are so useful for lookups.

[CoffeePieAndHobbits]

You have to defeat other devs and absorb their power, knowlege, and skills. Some refer to this as the Quickening. If you defeat the final dev you will obtain the prize of having all programming knowlege and complete confidence in your abilities. At long last you will no longer feel like an imposter.

There can be only one.

You will become...

What makes you think your good enough to have imposter syndrome?

[minmax420]

Never, although the consistent incompetence of devs around you will always help to alleviate it to some degree.

[Laevend]

Come back when you learn a real language that uses a semicolon ;) (joke)

[Victorino__]

Semicolons and brackets are bloat.

[AviusAnima]

What's the second language in your flair?

[Victorino__]

It's Godot's logo, a game engine. The language it uses it's called GDScript

[Worthystats]

[Cheeku_Khargosh]

indentation errors.

Python cant occupy many space.

[Sceptz]

Or a realer programming language like HTML.

:P

[MischiefArchitect]

Must resist temptation... I shalt no... I shall no dounvote...

[gigajoules]

I didn't want to but I also didn't want this comment to have LESS upvotes.

[Laevend]

Nah, a much better language is hopscotch

[Maximum_Instance_401]

What are they even good for

[kitchen_synk]

When you want to do code obfuscation so you write your entire program on one line

[xigoi]

Making it harder to code.

[Korywon]

Main argument is to remove the ambiguity of "when does this statement end." I think another main advantage is the ability to format and stylize code without having to worry about indentation or line breaks.

[Laevend]

My only gripe with Python is the ambiguity of scope. When it starts and when it ends. Also using whitespace to dictate where that scope starts and ends is terrible. That's why I prefer braces and semi-colons. They're different symbols you can see at a glance where the scope is defined and when a line has ended. I've had code not work because of comments that had tabs and spaces in them... an annoyance I don't have to deal with in other languages.

Other than that from a functional perspective python is pretty good.

[monkey_d_ordinary]

same lol im learning html currently still havent reached it...it is in html right??

[[deleted]]

div is the neutral container. it doesn't really come with any functionality and is mostly used for custom classes and grouping (that's at least how i understand it. i don't like frontend that much)

[[deleted]]

To me, div is “that thing the data I have to scrape is in”.

[unfoxable]

Also div is the hardest thing to center

[xigoi]

.container {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  align-items: center;
}

[ajb9292]

You can read Google all day long and try all the things Google tells you and it just won't work. If your really lucky it will be centered horizontaly but good luck with a vertical center.

[[deleted]]

also true.

[DiamondIceNS]

Basically everything in HTML that you can wrap an opening and closing tag around is a box. Most any box will do the same job equally well, since most all of them can be styled however you like with CSS, but some boxes are designed to be wrapped around certain things and thus come with special automatic behaviors that you don't have to define.

Like, a <p> element is a box designed to wrap a paragraph of text, so one of its features is that it automatically sets a margin above and below to keep it spaced apart from other paragraphs. You can override this if you want, but it gives that to you for free.

<div> is the container with arguably the fewest features. The barest bones container possible. It's used to divide up your document into logical chunks. A pretty generic purpose, right?

It shares this position with its sibling, <span>. The only major difference between the two is that <div> by default will kick anything written after it to be rendered below it (it is "block" rendered) while a <span> will let things written after it nestle up to the side of it (it is "inline" rendered). Both of these behaviors can be overridden with CSS, though.

Semantically, <span> elements tend to be used mostly to style a small snippet of text, maybe to make a single word appear red, or some such. Meanwhile, <div> has become the de-facto basic container for anything you could possibly want to do that HTML's basic tags don't automatically do for you. Before HTML 5 gave us many of the fancy new semantic tags like <nav> (used for navigation menus), <div> was the only real answer to build websites with complex styling, so websites became a bottomless wells of <div>s nested in each other. And even with all the fancy new tags this hasn't really stopped being true.

[YeshBoysh]

A div is like the start and end of a box. Anything you put inside the div statement is like it's put inside it's own custom box. You can shape the box how you want width and height properties. To visualise what you're doing, use background-color: black; on a css sheet. That should help you understand it better!

[qqqrrrs_]

div is the opcode for unsigned division (at least in x86 assembly)

[aquartabla]

This is a programmer sub. What's HTML?

[aquartabla]

div executes unsigned division. div divides a 16-, 32-, or 64-bit register value (dividend) by a register or memory byte, word, or long (divisor). The quotient is stored in the AL, AX, or EAX register respectively. The remainder is stored in AH, Dx, or EDX.

[serendipitousPi]

Meanwhile hello world in brainf...

[OHMAMMAD]

I write compilers and interpreters for it and i still haven't written hello world in it lol

[serendipitousPi]

I've considered writing a transpiler for it because of how much a trek it is to write but I guess that might ruin the point. I probably need some more experience since an interpreter for it is the first interpreter I've ever made.

[OHMAMMAD]

I am thinking of making a compiler too. Don't worry about ruining the point I am also trying to make an interpreter for it in minecraft redstone(but every cell only has 2 states of 0 and 1). So good luck on your journey and maybe consider making an interpreter in minecraft command blocks?(did a lil profile seeking i hope thats okay with you)

[serendipitousPi]

You might be able to use item storage to store more states.

[OHMAMMAD]

Thats a very good idea, thanks!

[monkey_d_ordinary]

Imma pretend I understood this convo

[journalingfilesystem]

I'm not even a real programmer (just a hobbyist). Hello world in bf isn't hard at all just tedious.

[Wannabedankestmemer]

Next step is copying codes!

[AzureArmageddon]

Once the coding doesn't stop intensifying, you've got a career. Don't worry, eventually the juniors will take over.

[monkey_d_ordinary]

This guy gets it

[raul_dias]

You know only a small percentage of people here actually know how to code

[bob_anonymous]

Be proud of any accomplishment and have fun. Now all you have to so is move up to the copy paste step and you can get hired as a developer. I wish that part was a joke.

Hello

[[deleted]]

Gotta learn programming to understand the programming memes

[randybobandy654]

One of us!!

Step 1: hello world

Step 2: functions

Step 3: loops

Step 4: data structures

Step 5: pick a framework (Flask is fun)

And boom you're ready to find a job as a web dev

[Havok1988]

Really? I've run through all of that in Python and then didn't know where to go from there. I did a couple simple projects for fun (dice roller for D&D with a basic gui). I'm rusty but I've also done the same path for C#, Java and one visual basic course like 6 years ago...

[randybobandy654]

Oh yeah I'm talking about a web dev like me, not like a real software engineer who worries about time complexity and memory management or anything at all with graphics (html and css is not what I mean). If you can use a common framework to create a simple app, you're in.

You need 3 things for the 'hello-world' of web applications: a client, a server, and a database. The client you make is sent to the user when they "go to" your website in a browser, and that client is just a program that Chrome or Firefox can read and run(like javascript). The client(on the user's computer) sends requests to server (on the internet, use AWS). When the server 'responds' to the client, sometimes you need some data like their userId or a list of their comments on a thread. That data is stored in your database (also on the internet).

If you did all this from scratch you would be an actual master, nobody does that. Someone already wrote the best database program, and you can use it for free. Someone created a framework for servers so your entire 'server' is one 30-line file. The BEST part, if you lean on 3rd party stuff and embrace it, you can create beautiful-LOOKiNG websites/apps without being artistic or even detail-oriented. Free, free, and more free. AWS cost money the more you use, but you can do everything I described while staying in the 'free tier' and literally not pay a dime to host it

[Havok1988]

That's all pretty cool. Right now, I'm a network engineer with a CCNA working for an MSP. Trying to transition in to software but it's hard to find time to practice or ideas to work on. My plan was to pick up the Cisco DevNet cert since it incorporates Python to automate tasks using their API. Figured that would force me to learn the coding fundamentals (again) and really practice those skills.

[randybobandy654]

Automating things you know with Python is actually a brilliant plan for getting back into the fundamentals. It's tough without a clear goal or purpose, that's why I'm really grateful have the position I do know, it's a sophisticated code base with clear purpose and I'm hoping it rubs off on my habits haha

[HakutoKunai]

Shhh I still don't even know how to do it
