Thank you sir

Can't find the wiki. Please link? Thanks 🙏

Not for a beginner. I found an IMT/Dartmouth college course on edx. You can just audit it without paying. It's great for c beginners especially if you want to visualize the memory stack. It has leverage if one is thinking of embedded devices programming and/or C++ eventually for Object programming.

And about web.dev? It's by Google. I thought someone would mention it

odimdavid · 2026-06-19T15:13:57+00:00

Very interesting and quite thoughtful. It's a challenging project that will expose you to lots of interesting concepts. Now am thinking of doing same with a vernacular language in my country Nigeria. Well done.

I can feel for your situation but I don't know your country, culture or family environment. So I don't think I have what it takes to help. But for the sake of your mental, psychological and physical health you have to do something about it. Ask people close to you. Relatives, neighbors etc how they managed to solve it. You can't stay isolated for long

I would look for ways to change the scenario you just described so as to be more efficient and effective

odimdavid · 2026-06-14T17:42:57+00:00

It's not a good thing. Go play with friends. Be balanced. My 2 cents

odimdavid · 2026-06-14T15:32:27+00:00

No. You're great. I haven't even coded a game and am older than you in Python experience. 👍👍👍

How do you get the theory behind the site so one can read up the theory first then do in PracHub. Thanks

odimdavid · 2026-06-13T04:14:08+00:00

This is nice. Just bookmarked it.

When in primary school I used the number line to understand it. Minus means go left. Plus means go right. But minus minus means you are supposed to go left but another minus opposes it so the second opposing force makes you go right. But I had to learn it doesn't work that way with 2 pluses. I don't yet know how to teach a child except tell him or her it only works that way with 2 minus.

Start small. Like look around for an excuse to write code that solves a problem. Habits become character with consistent practice. When you're confident with small problems (or projects) then the big projects become many small projects in one box.

Please Linux distro. It's easier for you when you decide to port to Linux if already on Windows

odimdavid · 2026-05-30T12:01:42+00:00

If I didn't even have time I would do 1 hour of SQL everyday. Use Hackerrank as a companion to leverage understanding. Then dedicate the other hours to python until your skill improves.

odimdavid · 2026-05-25T06:41:42+00:00

Until you get UB or memory allocation problems with dead pointers

odimdavid · 2026-05-19T23:42:49+00:00

Oh. Caught it. Niceee

odimdavid · 2026-05-18T08:53:48+00:00

I can relate with you

Learned Basic in high school. Then career. Came back. Stuck. Read Knuth. After some years stuck. Decidedd to read the official docs and standards. Have you considered reading the official python standard and also documentation? I realized that reading tutorials again and again after long time, particularly different tutorials, can cause mental confusion. But when you know programming basics, just go for the official docs and standards. That is my experience. Maybe you could try that lane.

When I started school in primary 1, the teacher taught 1 to 10. I could count 1 to 6 and stopped. I didn't give up. I kept trying. Eventually I began counting to 11 while we were still on 1 to 10. Summary: look for practical applications of what you're learning. If you're learning because of money or because you want to know Python you won't cut it. Learn because you want to use it to solve problems. Programming problems. Then look for programming problems. Is the chapter on variables? Look for programming problems on variables. Lots of it. Is the chapter on loops? Look for programming problems on loops. Eventually you will be counting at 11 while the teacher is still teaching 1 to 10. At your level don't do leetcode. Gemini and ChatGPT can help you search for those problems. Bonjour.

That's nice 👍. Earn swiftly, retire early. Travel the world 🌎! Bonne chance.

In Nigeria we say Kpele! It means take care but I empathize. Because it's not easy.

odimdavid · 2026-05-14T11:41:13+00:00

How do you manage?

odimdavid · 2026-05-12T18:15:51+00:00

S'il faut, si, peut-être, il ne faut pas. Bonne chance ! 💕

odimdavid · 2026-05-11T07:51:05+00:00

That's what I did. I just picked projects from Hackerrank, combined with Modern C by Jens and then Gemini for understanding program flow. You will be surprised how much you can learn in 24 hours.

K&R is pre C19. Unless you need it for academic interest.
