learning to code (3 month course) will land you a 70k job

[((ReFleXioN)) EteRNaL]

I got a job after 6 months of learning to code

and this is starting from scratch with no programming knowledge at all?


what resources did you use?...was it only freecodecamp and theodinproject?

How does one break into copy?

You study copywriting then write copy lol.

You can't really go to school for it although they do have copywriting courses and schools nowadays. But the greats (past and present) didn't need that shyt so I wouldn't spend the money to learn what you can for a fraction of the price.

My learning process consisted of:

• Reading dozens of books on copywriting, sales and psychology
• Writing/blogging everyday
• Creating and selling my own product, writing the copy for it and looking at the results

I'm looking for a copywriting mentor now to take my game to the next level.

I can recommend must-read books if you are interested

Also check out my site on copywriting and marketing. I recommend subscribing, it's going to be filled with so much fantastic marketing info, you'll be able to school a lot of marketing majors. without taking one marketing college course.

The params modifier thingy is kinda cool I guess:

using System ;

class MyProgram
{

    static void Main( string[] args )
    {

        Console.WriteLine ("Sum: " + Testing (9, 65, 4, 2, 4));
    }

    static int Testing( params int[] numbers )
    {

        int sum = 0;

        foreach (int number in numbers)
            sum += number;

        return sum;
    }
}

Going to take a short break and play some splatoon

using System ;

namespace ConsoleApplication
{

    class CMyProgram
    {

        static int EXIT_SUCCESS = 0;

        static int Main( string[] args )
        {

            CPerson breh = new CPerson ();

            Console.WriteLine ("Sup. What's your name cuz?");
            breh.Name = Console.ReadLine ();

            Console.WriteLine ("A'ight. How old?");
            breh.Age = int.Parse (Console.ReadLine ());

            Console.WriteLine ("So your name is: " + breh.Name);
            Console.WriteLine ("And you're " + breh.Age + " years old?");

            Console.ReadLine ();
            return EXIT_SUCCESS;
        }
    }

    class CPerson
    {

        private string _strName ;
        private int _nAge ;

        public CPerson() {

        }

        public CPerson( string strName, int nAge )
        {

            this._strName = strName;
            this._nAge = nAge;
        }

        public string Name {

            get { return this._strName; }
            set { this._strName = value; }
        }

        public int Age {

            get { return this._nAge; }
            set { this._nAge = value; }
        }
    }
}

I don't if I could be around those type of people though. I'm getting out using my P911, so its an option. Right now I want to head to radiology, but I want to hurry up and make money so I can start my life over already.

1. You could use either. But to keep confusion down as you're a new beginner, I would suggest using a windows-based laptop since

a. you're probably most familiar with that OS
b. most coding books/tutorial videos will use windows-based environments

2. You don't need a new laptop to get the job done. When I got started, I had most shyttest/weakest laptop of all time

3. As for classes/time to learn at home, bro you gonna need PASSION. Without that, none of this shyt is going to mean much because the shyt ain't easy. This isn't a hustle or quick come-up, this shyt will pretty much become your life.

You shouldn't face too many issues then. I assumed you where Windows oriented like most.

Wrote my first c# program. I already have a strong c++ background so getting used to the weird syntax will take some time:

using System ;

class MyProgram
{

    static public int Main( string[] args )
    {

        int age = 0;

        Console.WriteLine ("Enter your age breh: ");
        age = int.Parse (Console.ReadLine ());

        Console.WriteLine ("Apparently you're " + age + " years old.");

        return 0;
    }
}

I honestly don't feel too comfortable with this. I'm using MonoDevelop on Arch Linux. In order to run my application I have to run it from the commandline doing this: "mono myprogram.exe". And the debugger isn't working properly in this. So when I write more complex apps I won't be able to pinpoint errors. **stroking beard** Seriously considering sticking to c++ but I don't know man....

If you can, use Windows and use visual studio code community edition for c#. Where are you getting hung up on syntax wise?
