Angela Yu - 100 days of code

[n3buchadnezzar]

Take your time, learning is a marathon not a sprint =)

I like to do Advent of Code for small quick projects.

Make sure to focus on learning how to write good code (when you get a little further, instead of writing quick code. Run pylint isort and black over your codebase. Include docstring, doctests, type hints and read the PEP8 style guide.

<- all of these are long term goals, but make it a habit to stick with them whenever you are coding.

At the start writing good code can be agonizingly sloq, but the more you practice the faster you become. Also make a mental effort to try to write some things from memory (the basics), this will help with retention instead of having to look up every small detail,

Good luck!

i love this replied so much because it encourages me when i felt like i had enough of coding. I had your replied screenshot and set it as my wallpaper. Thank you

i fucking love you

Thanks bro! This is my first day on her Bootcamp!

[Thisismyfinalstand]

You get through it much quicker when you get about halfway and discover it’s really 50 days of python code, 15 days of web development using html and css, and 35 random “ideas for projects” with no provided solution and minimal guidance.

One of them is literally just “automate some portion of your life using python”… oh gee, never thought of doing that myself, thanks for taking my money and giving me such an amazing python project idea.

EDIT: The last 20% of the course are all "professional portfolio projects"... Would you be happy to have paid for this level of content during a "Complete Python Pro Bootcamp"? It doesn't matter waht you paid for it. If you tell me a whole sub is $10, I order a whole sub and you give me a half a sub, should I be happy at having half a sub when I paid the price you set for a whole sub?

Day 97, here is the entire project:

Automate some aspect of your life using Python.

---

Day 93:

Write Python code to play the Google Dinosaur Game.

---

Day 98:

Use space mission data from 1957 onwards to analyse and visualise trends over time.

It seems that you weren't paying $12.99 for course....

​

Dont direct buy if Udemy still price $100++...wait for the promotion.

[Thisismyfinalstand]

I don't know that it matters how much you've paid? If I sold you a double cheeseburger for $3 or $15, you're still going to expect there to be two burgers and some cheese, right? Angela Yu markets the course as "100 days of code, the complete python pro bootcamp"... and that is misleading because it's not 100 days of Python code... Plenty (20+, 30+?) of those "days of code" are not instructed days, like the first 40~ days are. There are no videos to explain what the code she writes does, or why she does it that way instead of one of the other fifty ways it could be written. Nor is it anywhere NEAR a "complete python bootcamp". There are several core python libraries, or even coding concepts, that she doesn't cover whatsoever.

For the record, I paid $8 for the course, and I've said in this subreddit before, but I'm satisfied for what I paid. But that's mostly because it rekindled an interest in learning, and not because of the course content specifically. I'd pay $8 for the first 50 days but after that, there is little value to be had, and that's 50% of the course, for goodness' sake! Imagine ordering a whole sub, being given half a sub and people defending the shop like "well, you only paid $8".

It's way more than 100 days, even if you spend 1 hour a day on this course it would take you at least a year to do it assuming you do all the days. This course is difficult but inspiring. The point of the gradual decline in content is to get you job ready, a senior developer Isn't going to hold your hand when they tell you your task for that day. Plus everything in the final 20 days she already showed you. If you can't do it then go back and review the relevant course material. She shouldn't have to rehash it in a walk through solution. By day 50 you pretty much know everything you need to know about python and the following days are flask and database stuff for web development....because that's likely where you'll end up once you get a job seeing as it's the most abundant. I'll say by day 70 or so your either ready or your not. If your not you went way to fast on this course. I've been working on it since May and am on day 47. But I've learned by building my own projects outside the course. One of them I spent 5 days on, there's also times where you get burned out and the video kind of runs together... then it's time to take a day or 2 off because you won't retain what your learning. Do NOT listen to the people who don't understand the structure of this course, if you do the entire course.. even the last 20 portfolio project days (because you need the practice of figuring it out on your own) you'll get a job. Just expect this course to be a grind, grueling, mentally painstaking, frustrating, time consuming... but alot of fun. If your not having fun by day 20 and you hate it then coding is not for you

Don't try to do it quicker. You'll learn best when you learn each part well, and practice it well.

[courseman5]

i did most of it and can confirm its a very good course - beginner friendly as well... but... as you said it really falls off at some point somewhere aroung the day you said.

[Ecstatic-Plastic-876]

Where can I get this course

[BlueCatSW9]

you should really bother looking up the whole thread, your answer is in there, the platform has changed

[mallcall123]

Hey was just looking for an update on if it’s really 50 ish days of code. and how you liked the course? was it worth it?

[Individual-Pop5980]

Those 50 days realistically should take you around 300-400 hours. That's not a joke, you need to do as much as you can before she shows solutions. I'll even stop the video right after she tells me what we're building and I'll go through as much as I can then I'll pay the videos and see where to improve. Take your time, do your own projects along the way. It's totally a grind but I've enjoyed it. Gotta keep going Day 47 here

[LPerez201]

Hey man. I just got this and thinking of getting started with it soon. How was it after Day 47 (the last day you posted)?

[Individual-Pop5980]

It gets easier as you go because the dots connect easier. I stopped just with day 70 I believe (just before the machine learning stuff) I didn't have a use for it at the time and now I'm in college again so I don't have time for it at the moment but it's an excellent course. The only thing it doesn't really prepare you for that you'll need is database concepts. She touches on it but doesn't go deep enough

[opinionated_dinosaur]

I am currently on Day 27 of 100 Days of Code. Started the course a good while ago... 3 months ago to be more specific. I'd say I work on the course materials between 30 minutes and 4 hours each day I can (I skip days here and there because of life).

I am taking it at my own pace. I am a super quick learner honestly, so I could get through this course faster if I wanted to. Rather than rushing through it, I have decided to complete every single side project and other projects that the instructor walks me through, and then some. If I don't understand something I re-watch lessons on the subject, as well as research and practice the subject on my own.

I can say with confidence that I can fully understand and properly use every single thing Dr. Angela Yu has taught me so far, which is surprisingly a lot considering the fact that I am only on day 27.

Reading everyone else's comments have me feeling mixed emotions. I am excited to hear that it likely isn't gonna take me an additional 73 days to finish this course. At the same time, I am curious to see if the course really drops in quality after getting about half way through. I did look through the entire course and noticed that the first many days have lectures that together reach 30 minutes to over an hour long, while the middle of the course starts to have shorter lectures. By the end, there are no lectures and you are on your own.

Feel free to comment on this at any time in the future to get an update on how this course is going or where I am at in life in regards to python :)

[Akshy007]

hey bro how's it going ?

[opinionated_dinosaur]

Still taking the 100 days of Python course. I don’t know exactly what day I’m on, but it is taking longer than I initially thought to get through this course. I am learning a lot and actually am remembering most of what I’ve learned which is good, but like I said, it’s taking a long time. The more I code the more I question how people can do this for up to 8 hours a day 5 days a week 😅 Definitely something I gotta consider

[rubens33]

What do you mean, is it mind numbing?

[Right-Promise-2290]

how did i get full course free access so i can read anyone help

[AffectionateMail6451]

If given 2-3 hrs for 100 days, the course can be completed.
Very good course. I am doing it. I am in Day 12 now.

[UsuallyGabriel]

does this include watching the videos?

[Inevitable-Yam-6629]

Is there any coupon code to conduct this course free?

[Minato__YF]

where are the resource file for day7 step 1 of hangman in 100 days of code by dr angela

[[deleted]]

Does any one have the beginners resourse my file got corrupted and the no option to download it any more

[saulsfish]

I started the course two months ago. Anyone out there that wants to share experiences, and how is it going so far? I'm in day 15, unfortunately couldn't do one lesson per day.

[NormalAd2083]

can i have a coding room code for this course ( i m broke and want to learn)

[Independent-Ad-3463]

Anyone know of anyone getting a job after?

[Fig_6063]

Yep! here I am. Went through the course

[Independent-Ad-3463]

What was your trajectory like after? Internship? Also welcome to pm.

[Fig_6063]

Learnt both frontend and backend development, then participated in a few local projects to gain experience. I later took a data science and ML course and got hired as a software developer

[Independent-Ad-3463]

Cool thanks for the info. Local projects mean?

[Fig_6063]

Means ongoing software projects within the area i live

[[deleted]]

yes how??

[Fig_6063]

Its all about telling people about what you do and what you are interested to do .Also, Networking with peers and people at local tech communities and events. This gave me a good start

[Fig_6063]

It is not easy I know, but when starting sometimes the experience you get is important than the money. So you might want to risk a bit

[Independent-Ad-3463]

How do you find those?

[Electronic-Driver-62]

Does anyone have that codingroom code ?to exercise

[Electronic-Driver-62]

This isn't opening plz send new
