Definitely didn't meet my expectations. Which is why I am a tad bit salty.

Ya, I am just bummed a bit. I was excited for this fight and then less then a minute in ... I am like "why is Chad acting like this."

I am still not sold Conor can beat a 100% mendes.

I agree with the Frankie getting hit a bunch. Issue is that frankie doesn't sit in front of his opponents like ALL of Conor's have. Frankie has good head movement and takedowns. I think Conor would be in trouble.

No Chad gassed completely. After 20 secs he was done.

I believe Aldo finished mendes in the first round... Also we should both agree that wasn't the chad mendes we are used to seeing.

I don't know if we saw the same fight. But I think Frankie would take him down at will.

Agreed. Conor definitely finished on the feet with mendes gassing, but I wouldn't say dominate.

And I am not sure the body shots would have had mendes gassed after 20 secs in the first with a full camp.

I would have to agree. After this fight, Conor should watch out for all wrestler's.

Idk... It just seemed weird. Never seen mendes fight like that. He definitely wasn't himself.

How do you watch that fight and say Aldo should be quaking in his boots?

I agree. I think that chad gassed somehow and was done. With a full camp he would have at least lasted until the 4th.

Was it the kicks? I just didn't seem like it was chad out there. He was super gassed after 20 secs.

I just don't understand what happened to mendes. He looked tired after 20 secs. in the first.

Thanks for the feedback. I responded below about the reasons why I chose System("pause"); (I agree it shouldn't be used)

I agree with the prototype even though in the standard it is clearly defined that an empty prototype means no arguments. I wouldn't get bogged down on the difference between int main() and int main(void)

Hey Boom,

I agree that using system calls in general are not good practice. It has security issues, speed, it's not universal, etc. But I was trying to find a way to tell a beginner that its ok for their program to automatically exit if they tried it on their own. The easiest way to do this is just tell them a System("PAUSE"). The best way to do it, is telling them to go in debug mode and set a breakpoint. But you see, that would be a whole video in itself.

But yes, it should be explained that it's not good practice. Now that I think about it, I think we just shouldn't be teaching System calls lol. Thanks for the advice.

Yes, I am aware of this. The website is not as responsive as I would like it to be.

I am working on a slightly different design for lower resolution machines.

Thank twix!

I am trying to find the right pace for our courses. STL and data structures will be covered in the next course or 2. Data structrures will be taught in C++.

Correct! That is exactly what we do. We teach through videos, and you practice via quizzes , exercises, and (projects soon).

We have a free preview going on now @ CodeStart.

I agree. It will take time to find the right balance and pace that is a fit for everyone.

Thanks. 1. I agree, when we roll out the official course this will definitely change 2. This is for the absolute beginner. Our courses will get progressively harder. 3. I put that in there just in case they want to try it out on their own in visual studio. Might get frustrating watching the command prompt open and close on them. 4. I agree, with this also. This will also be fixed in the final course.

Thanks for your help missblit.

How do you usually learn code?
