fukk C++ :PACSPIT:

That shyt is crazy, huh? Once it clicks, it's like

Yep yep.

Can’t count how many times I’ve been stuck on something forever making no progress, go to sleep and even dream code sometimes, only to wake up fresh out of bed like “wait wtf I can just do xyz” and solve the problem in a matter of minutes.

 

[Golayitdown]

so outta c, c++, or java which one would you say i should start learning

I'm a major fan of Java even though I have a good deal of experience in 4-5 languages (including C/C++).

Breh I was literally telling somebody the same thing yesterday! I had a problem the other day that was killing me for half of the afternoon into the evening. Had me ready to punch my monitor. I went home and didn't even think about it. Woke up and started back on it the next day and figured it out in 3 minutes.

Coding for hours is almost like driving for a long time. Sometimes you need a break before you start seeing shyt that's not really there.

Java.

C is useful if you’re doing computer or electrical engineeeing as a lot of low level coding uses C.

as an electrical engineer i been runnin away from c, guess time finally caught up

The best thing you can do for any programming language is skip class, and make your own shyt.
You'll learn more trying to make something cool and googling how it works than reading a book in class

The way programing is taught is in schools is the way American schools teach foreign languages.

And we wonder why we have people who have taken spanish/italian/french for 5 years and cant carry a conversation.

man your analogies when talking about IT are gold

 

[patscorpio]

I think its the exact opposite tbh.

The clean, crisp, way of writing might apply to proper syntax but that's where it stops.
When I learned Java and C++ in school here's what we did not learn:

- We did not learn how to properly debug and proper tools
- We did not read any programming whitepapers
- We did not learn how to properly pseudo or how any whiteboard skills
- We did not learn how to work with milestones

You have to keep in mind that most professors have been in academia for years and years and have no real functional understanding of how a developer actually works in the real world.


You will have a greater understanding of the job of a developer by talking to, collaborating with, and exchanging with people who are actually in the field.



I can go into more detail but I'm very against how programming is taught in school.
I think its utter shyt to be honest

Which is why getting internships is vital...thats when it clicked for me..more real world applicability

you use bootstrap for css? or use other methods? I get so lazy with css bootstrap saves me a lot of time

For lil things here and there, but I prefer flex grid system and material design. Bootstrap looks so dull and obvious sometimes.

 

[Miles Davis]

I feel you breh. I dropped it a few years back and now I’m taking Java. I like it better but I’ll have to learn c++ eventually.

 

[Breh13]

There’s a huge curve to programming for most people.

Keep at it breh. The rewards are huge.

Took a final In my programming class this morning waiting on the grade . Our Computer science department teaches Java tho and it hasn't been that bad so far. About to spend all Winter Break on videos to hopefully be ahead of the second semester class and then This summer I want to learn C++

C++ Tutorial for Complete Beginners by cave programming has been an amazing refresher for my exam.

Have fun learning it, though. Since you've done java, it shouldn't be that hard to get.

 

[Taharqa]

What do you plan to use it for? I hear modern c+ is pretty sweet but I'm no programmer for real.

It's apart of beginning programming so I have to pass the class to get to take java this spring.

All languages are the same and learning the syntax will come as you work on your project.

Focus on what you're trying to build and the rest will follow.

No eye on the big picture. No eye on the purpose. No real wisdom.

Just going through the motions. This is why most people hate math.

They are not trying to create, they're just memorizing equations without knowing what they're used for.

Our school system is a joke. There's no learning involved.

 

[xCivicx]

BRUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I SPENT fukkING 2 HOURS LOOKING AT fukkING 300 LINES OF CODE JUST TO SEE I DIDNT ADD A A CARROT TO THE EQUAL SIGN!!!!!

It's like that sometimes lol

Hopefully that small error made you so mad that you never make that mistake again

At least that's how it's supposed to work
