Programming brehs

[TRUEST]

It's just weird as hell to me compared to other editors and IDEs. I understand its purpose back in the day when they were trying to save keystrokes due to slow networks but damn its 2016 now.

You get nerd cred for knowing it though

nah. vim is gospel. those who leave it to use something else just never took the time to learn the commands they need to learn to be able to navigate well in it.

What is your program supposed to do for your assignment?

Vim for C++? Eh. I can understand for scripting languages.

I know people can do some cool things with vim but damn that learning curve when you're actually trying to make shyt.


I shouldn't discourage people from using it though

That's what I'm saying. You got real ide's like code::blocks, kdevelop, eclipse, etc...

You can even get a free version of visual studio if your a student (obviously the student version). Same with xcode.


Vim is pretty hardcore for this

I guess it'll be good for them to go through a trial by fire.

You should mentor the young breh. You got experience and he got hunger and a drive. Rep as soon as it's back

Appreciate it breh

Visual studio is so ass. The shyt is slow as hell.

What is your program supposed to do for your assignment?

Display 6 options for area of shapes and make the user pick one via inputs of 1-6 if input is less or greater than that range display error message and make them put in the correct value. Then depending on that display the chosen shape title then ask for the parameters (base, base1, height) input, if a non positive input is chosen display error message and make them input a correct value, then show them the area of said shape. #define is used for PI value and <math.h> for the pow function. I'm essentially using if....else with whiles to make the program. Only thing is I dnt know how to make a exit program command for input 6.

y'all dissing vim and suggesting other stuff what else shld I try to work with?

Do you really have to use vim?

Hopefully they have nano on the OS you're using.

And a for loop in C expects 3 expressions. Like

for(int x=0; x<10; ++x)


Try replacing "while" in place of "for"

emacs is the truth breh. bounced around between nano, pico, vi, vim ... everything but emacs is the only one that made me go

it doesn't make sense to use a command line tool especially if you are a beginner. this isn't the 70s - how old is your prof?

not saying that command line editors don't have their uses, and you shouldn't use them but you will be much more productive if you have a proper editor. I don't know about C++ but the litle coding I did I used Geany and it was a'ight.
