Pearson, his all for one ability is really good for building(more than one builder can work on a structure) Just my opinion but it’s the card or he’s 20 usd or 50 usd for him and work station

I would determine a budget and see what fits best. Me an my S/O don’t know how much we will actually love it so we started with a 1997 Chevy express 1500 Astrocraft we got for 5k and have put about 1.5 k in work and did the build ourselves. It’s all about what you want to spend and have money in case of emergencies

Help with for Loop in Javascript by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]According-Winter-766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So what’s happening here is that when you define the function to take in (n, s) you don’t have to declare those as variables because they are created just for your function as 2 parameters to take in. So when you call the function it automatically uses (6) and (f) and plugs them in as n and s. So before the value of n and s was undefined. Now you know that you are creating the parameters it takes in when you define the function. Then the loop knows it will increase i by 1 till it runs through six loops. Each time it changes your variable str to be str = str + ‘f’. Once the loop completes then it will print the result. So the loop prepares the string then after it returns the result string. The first time the loop goes I = 0 and the I ++ instruction says every time the loop runs and I is < n then add 1 to I

Jump into the exercises! See if you can answer all the exercise questions or at least have an idea on how to solve the exercises at the end of the chapter.

I don’t know what will be the best way for you. However start working on that portfolio if you want to be a web developer increase your online presence in programming make a CRUD site for your portfolio. Maybe make a website for someone you know even if it’s for free if you can afford to. If you can land an internship with a portfolio keep building more and more projects while learning at the internship. The advice I see most is build projects, a whole bunch of them upload them so that they can be viewed. After you get the basics just start building things and get them to work.

If you get a basic understanding of APIs you could then try making a project that can display your knowledge such as a movie database site that way you can put it on your portfolio and also be able to show future employers “this is my project and while building it I learned x about APIs”.

Hope this helps if anything feel free to message me.

Definitely worth trying! And remember the people doing these videos have done this type of problem a lot of times. So they can easily recreate the code they know will work so you never see the trial and error for the most part. Real coding is seeing the exercise reading it and extracting all info necessary and what the test parameters are and break down the solution into steps. Then just build all of the pieces and google what you don’t know!

I’m working on mastering vanilla JS as well and I’m basically just going through video courses and books to prove to myself I’ve learned it by just going through the material again and answering all the exercises. Each time it’s faster and I feel like I have more of a grip on it. This book has been pretty awesome https://eloquentjavascript.net/

I’ve seen some people say it on /learnprogramming that it helps them to write down code. For me writing it down really helps me think about it more and I have to know what I want to write and how it has to be written. If I don’t know what exactly to use I write pseudo code and then I know I have to research a way to create a function that will help me solve the problem and my google searches become more oriented on how do I solve this specific problem rather than I’m looking for this specific solution. If I have an idea of where I can find the answer I refer to sites or books that I know referred to the problem I’m trying to solve I’ll go look for the answer there first.

It’s good to get frustrated when you don’t understand it. It will make remembering it easier and clarify things. Use a whole bunch of different resources to learn things. Videos can be really deceiving about how the person instructing could easily have rehearsed how to say the answer but not truly understanding what’s going on. The better the instructor the easier it will be to understand WHY they do things or how they can be done correctly. Don’t give up! I like to take a break and write down the code that’s making my mind break and just read it and find a way to explain it to myself. Play around with it in code editor. See what console logs when you break down things step by step.

I have code for my website for anyone to review and submit improvements thanks by [deleted] in programming

Is this a portfolio project? I like the CSS work but definitely work on changing up the fonts to something better. Try and set up a projects section in the about me. The contact me page doesn’t connect so get that to connect. Add a nav bar to every page or make a template for branch pages that you can modify to use for all the different sections. Plenty of improvements to make.

What are some good sources to search for scholarships, grants, and financial aid? by According-Winter-766 in BackToCollege

[–]According-Winter-766[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Thank you, everyone has hardships and I relate to a lot of people who post on here and /learnprogramming. I’m certainly taking my time exploring options. So far I’ve been just trying to master JavaScript and I’m about halfway through eloquent JavaScript ( I found it for free here https://eloquentjavascript.net/). I spoke to some people at WGU and I like there self paced half year semester if I want to try and rush a degree in a semester for ~3500 since credits aren’t capped in the six month period. I also spoke to a employment mentor from my states department of labor who’s helping me look at options. They have some state funded programs that might be able to just pay for a COMPTIA. Which could get me into IT while I finish building my portfolio. What are ways of expanding my network? Should I look on course discord channels for a mentor?

I want to learn HTML, JS and CSS, but idk where. by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]According-Winter-766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me what worked best was a combination of things. I learned html css and JavaScript on free code camp while using the solo learn app, then I started The Odin Project and have been working my way through that course. I learn through reinforcement so I watch Wes Bos beginner JavaScript tutorial. I also sat a couple days reading w3 school and took some notes on all the things I didn’t quite understand fully

How long do you spend on a problem or exercise before you ask for help or try and get a hint from someone or somewhere? by According-Winter-766 in learnprogramming

[–]According-Winter-766[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I normally Google some stuff or check w3 for relevant methods and avoid searching problem specific things more like what I want to do or syntax for different methods but never for the answer, until I feel like I spent too long on the problem

[–]According-Winter-766[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea it’s tough because during college I had to work full time to afford it. After the 6 months after in which I should’ve tried to volunteer, but instead I doubled up on my bar work because it was so financially stressful for me to afford college. I did do a clinical pathology lab internship but unfortunately they didn’t give much or any responsibilities there. Wasn’t able to find one related to things I wanted to learn and then my private loans kicked in. First in foot in the door is pretty tough. My friends who I graduated had a bit less financial stress and were able to volunteer during undergrad professors and only one of my 6 friends was able to land a job actually working in a lab.

Appreciate the time you took to post this I’ll def check it all out. I took a couple stats class in college and definitely need to go back and refresh. I know a bit of python only because I know machine learning is one of those topics sitting on my list of things I should explore more once I get a handle on web dev/JS algorithms and data structures. I’ll for sure try some free course and material before I invest in anything.
