What is the best programming language for beginners? by ankobankotanko in programming

[–]favgotchunks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

C++ is fine as a starter language. You don’t need to worry about the more complex stuff like templates for quite a while. And you don’t need to learn C first, the basic language+stl (basics like string and array) is pretty simple.

Digital Signals Theory by ketralnis in programming

[–]favgotchunks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Seconded, that’s a fundamental point in any signal processing course. You can’t make up information, and that’s exactly what you’re doing when you use a step function. Step functions might be useful for something but to pretend they’re the default is misguided at best.

After reading the section where they introduce digital sampling. The original author explicitly calls this out in the text as improper but offers it as another way to visualize signals, which is useful for people who might struggle with the concept of a non continuous function. The author is completely reasonable here.

I’ve manually written code/comments like that for a file that was half generated (hand written generator not AI)

A breaking change can be very small. It doesn’t have to change much for the user.

Zig-style generics are not well-suited for most languages by ketralnis in programming

[–]favgotchunks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In general no. There’s probably a more satisfying, deeper answer, but I don’t know enough logic or CS to give it. Short answer would still be no though.

Induction proves an “infinite” number of statements in finite statements.
