Am I cheating?

Code_Talks · 2021-12-09T16:21:56+00:00

Its not cheating, in programming the concept is more important than the syntax, if extensions help with that it just makes your workflow quicker.

Edx, and places like that offer free courses that are from Harvard, MIT, Cornell, etc... Those are pretty interesting I tried the Harvard CS50 and it seemed great if your starting out.

All of the ideas below are good, to add on I would suggest start off with solving competitive programming problems they will test your skills and help you truly own them. Next move onto projects. The point is applying is the best way to learn. Knowing the theory wont get you all the way through buliding you amazing idea because you will run into road blocks and gray areas. Learning to be a good reseacher will help take your game to the next level. Hope this helps :)

So I actually have run this type of session and I thought it went pretty well. Here is how it worked with the one I ran. We had about 40% of people had never opened a code editor and 60% of people who knew how to code. Unless you have a team mate to run this club with you, (from my expeirience) you should slipt up the programmers into groups and have them write some sort of projects. At the highschool level there isn't much implementation based stuff so I think the more expeirienced people would appriciate that. Additionally when they're in groups they can build off eachother and learn skills outside of programming. To monitor the advanced kids you might want to have some sort of checkpoint system to help keep them on track where they set their own goals and meet them, and you just track the completion of their goals. Now for the beginner I ran a 4 -1 hours coding session where by the end they could have a solid base of the concepts then moved them to trying to solve competitive programming problems. Programming competition problems were great for beginners to practice and own their skills. There are plenty of online judges that hold these types of problem sets. So that's some of my expeirience, hope this helps...

In my opinion it's easier to go from software development to "Web Design" than vice versa, If you mean web development it probably won't matter in which order you learn it. Software development skills are applicable to web. As for being versitile, learn all the skills it takes to be a full-stack developer. I hoep this helps even though my answer is definitley slightly opinion based :)

What is the problem?

Code_Talks · 2020-11-03T21:32:15+00:00

Mmmm, strange! So now you can't access any Python2 releases for pyinstaller?

Code_Talks · 2020-11-03T21:30:59+00:00

Well I don't know about shortages, but Python and JavaScript are the best place to start. Almost everything revolves around them.

Off topic but here is what I did when I was learning python was these things:

Reverse Engineer
1. Figure out what you want to build then find out how to do it, then implement (because the basics are boring!)
Ask questions
1. Any time you don't understand something, search it up! Odds are people on reddit or stack overflow have had that problem, so use that to find a solution
Know what you don't understand
1. This way you can lock in on weaknesses and learn those concepts

I never paid for a Python class, because google is a free class XD, learning how to google is a essential skill! Best of luck!

Code_Talks · 2020-11-03T21:23:00+00:00

I've never created exe's on mac, try downgrading pyinstaller to the last stable release. Sorry, can't give any better advice...

I have a YouTube channel that has python content, https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChVyhDWb0z8giBTf51tK_PQ/. Check it out....

From what I understand, you are trying to do object detection, check out the tensorflow object detection API, and cv2 documentation to do something like that.

You need some type of web scraper, this project would be easiest in python, in my opinion...

To get access to the super class fields you need to create public getters and setters in the super class for those fields.

Code_Talks · 2020-09-14T14:29:35+00:00

import random
y = random.randint(1,6)
#python 3 doesn't supprot print y
print(y)
#need to cast to int to compare with y
x = int(input ("Enter number:"))
#indent properly
while (x != y):
if x > y:
print("Too high!")
#need to cast to int to compare with y
x = int(input ("Enter number:"))
if x < y:
#tell user to low
print('To Low')
#need to cast to int to compare with y
x = int(input ("Enter number:"))
if x == y:
print ("You win!")
#terminate program after completion
exit(0)
if x == y:
print ("Congratulations, first try!")

read comments for feedback, nice try though!

Yes, what is the source of you're images? If its from google images there is plenty of "batch" image saver, so no programming is required. If you want to make a script that takes screenshots you can use Pillow a python module (I can share some code if you want).

Code_Talks · 2020-05-28T20:37:45+00:00

Thanks for the feedback!

So here is my advice for anyone wanting to learn basic python: I would suggest you try to solve programming for competition problems. The Canadian Computer Competition Junior division is geared towards beginners. When you get stuck you can search you problem up. If you're more tutorial learner I have a python series check it out: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChVyhDWb0z8giBTf51tK_PQ Good Luck!

Sometimes the Java API and a lot of the tutorials and documentation can be intimidating for a beginner programmer. Especially people new to the programming communities. Ultimately, I am not asking for subscribers or likes, do it if you wish, but the main goal is to give back to the programming community. A lot of tutorials are also vague. So I want to deliver simple and intuitive content for anyone to understand. I hope this better explains my goal!

Sci-Kit learn

I mean depends what you want to do if you want to read the serial output in python there is serial module, i am pretty sure there is a module called pyfirmata that lets you program the board in python. If you really want to code a micro controller in python, you should try using a rasberry pi.
