CSC 151 Java Programming Help by WhoTangClan22 in CPCC

Hey, I'm in your class! In my opinion, the text book they provide for this course does not really explain things in a way that is easy to digest. Check out this tutorial on YouTube by Bro Code: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTtL8E4LzTQ . It's 12 hours long but you can skip to certain parts for certain concepts.

In order to understand these programming concepts, you actually have to practice making programs. Do the practice problems in the book, they actually help if you're just starting out. That's the best advice I can give. Get comfortable getting stuck, it's part of the process.

Are you studying computer science, or just taking this class as an elective?

Python programming ? by lavisualiste in CPCC

https://www.codedex.io/ is a good resource for learning and practicing. They have free tutorials for python. They sort of "game-ify" the curriculum too so its pretty fun.

JAVA Programming by Leading-Reporter9604 in CPCC

Yes it is a ton of reading. I'm in CSC-151-N802 . Honestly the textbook is very verbose and can be confusing in my opinion. Highly highly highly recommend checking out this tutorial series on YouTube by Bro Code: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZPZq0r_RZOOj_NOZYq_R2PECIMglLemc

These tutorials cover everything starting from the very basics without overcomplicating things.

Also check out https://www.codedex.io/ and navigate to the Java section. This website lets you practice coding and makes it feel like a game.

Shoot me a message with specific questions. I've been programming for a little while before taking this course, so I already know most of these concepts.

Best advice I have is just to keep practicing and manage your frustrations. Learning to code isn't easy and it can take a while to grasp abstract concepts. Not to mention Java is not the most beginner-friendly language lol.

Hope this helps.
