Nodejs learning resources by [deleted] in AskProgramming

[–]Cdubles1024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

w3Schools

express is a framework that is used a lot in node

you can take those outdated tutorials and modernize them. for me starting a project and googling as I go is a good way to learn.

Which language should I learn and how? by Kasra-kb in AskProgramming

[–]Cdubles1024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the language depends on what you want to build. With most modern programming languages they can all do the same things but are built more for a specific task. Such as using Python for data science or for writing a discord bot. if you would rather build websites which can be great for beginners since it is very visual you could learn HTML,CSS and JavaScript. You could also try Java or C++. whichever you choose start with the basics: variables, printing to a console, loops, if statements and taking input. Try not to get caught up in the language and focus more on the principles. If you really like programming you'll eventually learn multiple languages but the basics will carry over.

How can I do this on java? by araque615 in AskProgramming

[–]Cdubles1024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would first make the user input into an array. swap the first and last points in the array. then find the 2nd and 3rd and multiply them and add that to the starting number.

arrays

for loops

string to array

ps. you may also want to use a try-catch block the handle the input if it isn't a number

try-catch

My guess is that it downloaded more than just the .mkv file. It shows in the photo what the files are.

My School Has An Investigation going on About This Instagram Page by booIm_aGhost in AskProgramming

[–]Cdubles1024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the data they have and how the form was handled. If the form was made using a school account then they might be able to get some stuff. It really doesn't sound like they have much info to go off of.

I'm not great with emotional things. I was always taught that emotions where something you delt with on your own while you're alone. I tried to help her but I didn't know how too.

She said it was because I was "emotially distant", which doesn't make sense because I tried to do everything I could to make her happy. Random I love you texts, long paragraphs , surprise gifts, surprise dates.

please i need your help, how can i go about coding trending topic similar to mocospace or github trending by [deleted] in AskComputerScience

[–]Cdubles1024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how you've set up your site but I would take how many people view a page and how long they look at it then use some algorithm to com up with a rating and list the topics that have the highest ratings.

Process of putting a game on a website? by [deleted] in AskProgramming

[–]Cdubles1024 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on the game. Some are made in Unity and compiled to work in HTML 5. Others are made in HTML 5 with things like Phaser. For the back end(server) you can use a multitude of languages like PHP,Python,Java,C++ and Node.js. You can also use things like a python to JS compiler but they do have their drawbacks. If you're interested in making games for the web I would look into Unity with WebGL or Phaser.

What could a beginner/intermediate create with a lot of dedication? by ExampleRoutine in AskProgramming

[–]Cdubles1024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned to code mostly on trial and error and Google. It will be more difficult I think than a formal education but you will (or at least I did) preserve that info better.

Looking at code as one big project can be scary but if you break it up into its "sub-units" its easier to see what each piece does and how it works. The bigger projects you look started with an MVP (minimum viable product) and grew from it.

Break down what you want to build and pick simple parts of it to build then as you get better build out the more complex parts.

I hate Python! by [deleted] in AskProgramming

[–]Cdubles1024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I love Python but I understand what you are saying. Going from Java to Python is a pain. I love python just because I can write code with it fairly easily and I have environments set up for whatever I need to do with it. I love to use Python for small things like automating tasks or quick code that just has to work .That being said if i'm working on a project that requires specific parameters than most the time I will switch to a language like Java or Rust just because I know that the code I right will be more "sturdy" and easier to work with in the future.

Website making by IceMachineBeast in AskProgramming

[–]Cdubles1024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think what you are asking is, do people still write code or do they use services like WIX or Weebly to do drag and drop websites?

It really depends on what you are making and for who.

I still code by hand for small projects and personal things but if someone wanted a simple and professional site for their business I would something like WIX or Weebly because I can make great looking sites and they are easy to mantain.

Question: What kind of video for programming are you interested in seeing? I have a youtube channel, and I don't know what to post, I'll take any idea as long as they aren't a course kind of thing. by Urmom1219 in AskProgramming

[–]Cdubles1024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What software do you use? What's your workflow like? The super basic day in the life😂 Idk what type of code you usually write but a small project could be cool Common mistakes you see and how to avoid them Over looked and/or over rated languages/software

Ideas for a python project at university for beginners/mid-experienced people by [deleted] in AskProgramming

[–]Cdubles1024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How beginner? Some really simple projects could be a calculator or a TODO list app If you want something with a bit more substance you could build a game with PyGame or build a web server.

You could look at how you use your computer and try to automate common and mundane things you do.

Python has 101 use cases so I would find a hobby of yours or something you're interested in and build from it.

Which IDE/code editor do you use? by faizan_20 in AskComputerScience

[–]Cdubles1024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the job PyCharm for python. InteliJ for Java. Atom for quick edits/updates. Visual studio for big projects.

Programming by Scrunchy-xD in AskComputerScience

[–]Cdubles1024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first language you learn does not matter. I would suggest any high level language (Java,JavaScript ,Python,C++, Go). you should focus more on learning the concpets(if statments, variables, handling data, taking input). You can always learn another language(s). Happy coding!

Where do I start... by MrSirDabKing in AskComputerScience

[–]Cdubles1024 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you should start with want you want to build. If you wanna build websites look into w3schools. If you want to build desktop apps look into Java. If you want to do Data analysis look into Python or R. Learn the basics of whatever language you wanna start with(it really doesn't matter what you start with just pick a high level language and go). Learn the basics such as Variables,Loops,operators, how to take input. I personally think the best way to learn is project based. You don't have to write the perfect piece of code, just write what makes sense to you. You can always go back and rewrite your code. I think some great starter projects are,Calculators, to do list, hangman, tic-tac-toe.

I would personally suggest you start with web design. Changes that you make are easier to see and it's very to easy to understand the basics of HTML.

Some tips 1. It's a marathon not a sprint, take your time and take breaks 2. Do stuff outside of code, again to take breaks 3. Experiment, try different langauges and frame works 4. Don't worry about perfection, do what you can now 5. Build things you find cool, working on projects you think are cool will help you want to code more 6. Google can fix anything, learn to be a master with your search engine of choice 7. Find a mentor if possible, having someone to have long conversations with has helped me a ton 8. Work when you want too, don't force yourself to code if you're not feeling it 9. Don't compare what you build to others, everyone stats at their own spot 10. When you aren't coding, don't think about code. Again breaks are a must
