What is Reddit's opinion of
SoloLearn?
From 3.5 billion Reddit comments
100 reviews of this app found across Reddit:
It's obviously ((i*i*i)+(11*i)-6)/6 for the first number in the line i and then just + 2 for all further numbers in the same line.
You have still a lot to learn to become a good programmer. I am a good programmer because I found the solution using google ;-D https://www.sololearn.com/Discuss/2320099/write-a-program-in-c-to-print-the-pattern
Sololearn. Used this to get the basics of Python into my head. It has loads of different programming languages and tasks to learn. With python you complete questions, reading and can even run code samples on the phone. Brilliant app for learning the basics. I was doing 10 mins here and there at work when there was some downtime.
Well, first off, don't commit suicide. This sounds corny, but just believe in yourself and try new things! Firstly, don't be ashamed to look for some low-effort job, like working at a fast-food chain like McDonald, and search for skills! There's definitely something you're good at. From your overly harsh description of yourself, I'd suggest you try out coding. There's some good tutorial sites out there (try Sololearn), and work on that during your free time when you're not at your job that I know you can hold down if you really try. Remember that there's more in you than you can think, and you can always turn things around!
P.S. Call your parents. They'll help, no matter how much you might think they don't like you.
Aparte de buscar ayuda profesional:
1) Anda al gimnasio, aunque te de paja, aunque te de verguenza, etc.
2) Hacé alguna actividad por ejemplo andá a tomar clases de salsa o tango para principiantes, clases de chino, etc. En esos lugares se hacen buenos amigos (con el tiempo, no seas denso y dejá que sea acerquen de a poco)
3) Laburás? Estudiás? Podés aprender a programar paso a paso aquí Te gustan los juegos? Tenés steam?
4 ) Hacé un cantero, aunque sea en una maceta, plantate unos porotitos, unas albahacas.
5) Apredé a cocinar, empezá amasando pizzas.
En fin, hay muchas cosas más. Mientras te tratás HACÉ COSAS no te pares
Si realmente querés salir tenés que obligarte a hacer cosas como estas. Tengo amigos depresivos que les das 2 lingotes de oro y se aplauden las bolas. No seas de esos. Poné de tu parte, no te va a sacar nadie del pozo si no estirás la mano por lo menos.
For basic math brainfarts, [purplemath](www.purplemath.com). For a periodic table with a search function, [this site](www.ptable.com/?lang=en). For super basic programming, codeacademy and sololearn. For basic cybersecurity shit, cybrary. By the way, wtf is up with the link formatting again?
https://www.sololearn.com/ also is a good one. Not just for python either! It teaches all kinda of languages to you and everything. Plus they have an online complier for the different languages they teach. You can save programs to work on them letter or to share with other on the community page. It how I learned python and C++ so far.
Mmmm a lot of it depends on what exactly you're interested in working on (apps, protocol, SDKs, etc.)
I'd recommend messing around on sites like Code Academy or Solo Learn to start. As you find out what language you like you can always reference this map of all the different technology stacks that compliment the language. From there you can apply your skill set where you see fit.
SoloLearn is pretty basic, but since you can do it on your phone (in addition to computer), I think it's a simple way to work through lessons if you are in situations where you have down time, but don't have access to a computer or anything, such as when using public transit, at the doctors office, yadda yadda yadda.
https://www.sololearn.com/ This website is pretty helpful, they have a large variety of languages to learn and its completely free. Its where I first started to learn how to code and I had a great experience.
Thanks for asking! I've listed them out.
Getting my sleep schedule in order.
Doing that by exercising a bit more harder and eating a lot better. Also that works for other reasons! Yay health!
Budget. I've kinda broken the impulse shopping habit-noticed I already have enough stuff, don't need much more. So long, Amazon!
Writing more. Anything. Got a short fictional story I need to finish/re-edit in my notebook (southern gothic themed, still need to do a bit more research!)
Go to Italy with my friends. First real vacation I would have had in three years.
Travel with my boyfriend.
Master HTML (I'm on SoloLearn for that! Great companion apps). I hope it will lead to some more fun tech things I can learn.
Continue working on my mental health.
Start volunteering again. I really liked it.
Get a new fucking job.
Keep a daily journal-separate from writing, just more for personal reflection.
Introduce my boyfriend to my parents!
Honestly I wouldn't bother with textbooks for this. The cpp docs are really pretty good to get you going, then once you know a little you can start looking deeper into topics that might interest you.
I'd work my way through here: http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/ Although its a little dry, it deals with all the fundamentals. Perhaps this would be useful too.
If you're after just learning programming in general I'd recommend codecademy
En https://www.sololearn.com/ tenes muchos lenguajes para aprender no necesariamente Python, igualmente te invito a que te unas al grupo de Telegram asi capaz encontras a alguien que tenga los mismos intereses y se complementen.
Las bases las podés sacar de acá https://www.sololearn.com/Course/Python/
Y la librerías que podés usar para matemática son éstas:
NumPy (numeric computations)
SymPy (symbolic computations)
Pandas (data management and statistics)
Learning python first is a great idea. It's a simple language with a lot power behind it.
As far as resources go SoloLearn is what you want. They offer step-by-step instructions and their app is really well made. https://www.sololearn.com
Its a question asked a lot on AvPD forums, understandably. I've always worked in an office, its not the right environment for me, a very uncomfortable one in close quarters.. spending the best part of my life with people I have no choice but to be with! I'm now 40 and going about changing this, its not easy :( I dream about working the night shift, or from home a lot. There are lots of alternatives... and you are young so have the opportunity to point yourself in the right direction. Don't let AvPD define you, find a way to manage your life and lifestyle around it.
I recently found this free website for learning computer coding, its quite a solitary job and well paid https://www.sololearn.com
No need for any experience to begin, learn at your own pace even from your phone and it walks you through the whole learning process seamlessly with lots of support from other user comments. You get a cert (which you can add directly to linkedin) for each course.. and i'm sure some confidence too :)
For somebody that is completely new to programming and CS in general, I think the best advice I could offer is to read a book about a relevant language(in this case, Java). This is my personal bias speaking since I use textbooks as one of my main sources of information for CS. I have quite a collection. I find them to be ordered well in terms of how they introduce knowledge to you and then expand that knowledge into related/more advanced topics. Most also do a good job of explaining what you can't do, as well as explaining what you can. With every book I've gone through I find that I come out of it with a fairly strong understanding of what was in it. I do the practice problems as well. Online websites and PDFs are also a pretty good text based source for info. You can just google what you'd like to know and a number of resources will come up.
But for time and moneys sake, I think a good start is to check out some of those silly "Learn to program in 10 minutes" videos on Youtube. They aren't the greatest at actually learning a topic, but they're good at quickly showing you the big picture of what you'll be learning/doing so you can get a better understanding.
But most importantly, CODE! You gotta have some hands on experience with it. After you have some sources of information, download an IDE like Eclipse, maybe do an online course with https://www.codecademy.com/learn/learn-java or https://www.sololearn.com/Course/Java/ and just experiment. CS is very much a field of self learning, no amount of courses will fully prep you for everything you'll encounter. Take your time and don't worry if you don't grasp everything, it takes time to become comfortable. Have fun :)
I'm 18 and in 3 months I'll enroll to Computer Science in uni of Kent. I learned to program in Pyhton 3 but then took a course in c++ and I absolutely loved it. Personally, I don't really like video tutorials as they don't usually adapt to everyone's learning pace, so the best solution I found is https://www.sololearn.com/Courses/. It's both app and web based and you can earn lots of programming languages, from Java to Ruby. Hope this proves helpful :)
Ich persönlich würde entweder mit einer aktuellen Programmiersprache wie C# oder Java anfangen, weil diese meiner Meinung nach relativ einfach zu erlernen sind und man damit sowohl prozedurale als auch objektorientierte Programmiererfahrung sammeln kann.
Mit dieser habe ich auch angefangen, in dem ich bei SoloLearn den C#-Kurs durchgegangen bin (https://www.sololearn.com/learning/1080). Anschließend habe ich ein paar kleinere Programme auf der Konsole ausprobiert (z.B. Hangman, Schere-Stein-Papier, o.ä.). Um dem ganzen einen Schritt weiter zu führen habe ich mich dann mit der Programmierung von graphischen Benutzeroberflächen angefangen und dabei verschiedene Tutorials auf YouTube durchprobiert. Alternativ zu YouTube Tutorial kann man natürlich auf Ressourcen wie Codeacademy und Udemy zurückgreifen. Dort kann man sich dann an verschiedensten Sachen ausprobieren wie z.B. einen Taschenrechner, o.ä.
Bezüglich der Frage, bei welcher Sprache man anfangen soll, schwören viele Leute auf C. Ich nicht, da ich finde, dass für Programmieranfänger zu viele Fehler auftreten können und zu viel beachtet werden muss (Stichwörter: Speichermanagement, Zeigerarithmetik, Buffer-Overflow, uvm.). Auch würde ich von der Programmiersprache Python am Anfang eher Abstand nehmen.
Sobald man dann die ersten Grundlagen der Programmierung verstanden hat (Methoden, Klassen, Konstruktoren, Geltungsbereiche von Variablen, Überladen von Methoden, ...), kann man sich relativ gut spezialisieren. Möchte man eher in Richtung Web-Entwicklung gehen, so entscheidet man sich dann eher für JavaScript mit HTML und CSS. Entscheidet man sich für App-Entwicklung sind eher Sprachen wie Swift und Java relevant. Im Desktopanwendungsbereich findet man sehr viele Sprache unter anderem C# und Java.
Ich hoffe ich konnte dir nen paar Tipps geben, wie du weiter fortfahren kannst.
I am unsure of how his 101 tests are, but he likes to give hard tests to his upper division students. As far as time commitment, it depends on how quickly you understand the material. Coding can take a very long time depending on how much you need to debug, or it can be fairly quick. It's not a class you can just sign-up for and not go to class / not pay attention. But its a very good topic to know. If you want to take it i would recommend looking through some of these https://www.sololearn.com/Course/Python/ as knowing this will help immensely. Also be sure to join the CSE discord as there is always people willing to help out and answer questions(you can still join even if not a CSE major) :) https://discord.gg/ZhGs4zG
> I don’t know HOW to make games. I have ideas that I believe are unique, but I can’t code, model, or animate. I just make lots of ideas.
This stops a lot of people. Ideas, to tell the truth, are by far the easiest part of the process. You've got to learn at least some of these skills to get anywhere. Here's a coding class to get started on C#, the programming language Unity uses. https://www.sololearn.com/Course/CSharp/
> The school system over complicated names for me so I don’t know what college courses or high school classes I should be attending.
This is going to vary a lot depending on where you are, but make sure you take any Algebra, Computer Science, and Programming classes you can find. Art classes will also help. In college, you might want to look into majors specifically for game design. My college has a major based on computer animation and programming for entertainment as part of its software engineering courses, so do some research and look into those.
As for motivation, that's on you. A lot of people will tell you that they always wanted to make a video game and that they have some magic idea that'd uproot the industry but it never comes to fruition. You've got to have an idea that you want to create so much, to the point that you're willing to put tons of work into it. Because that's what game design and development is, tons and tons of work.
I think the issue might be that CodeAcademy's SQL lessons are written for an audience familiar with already drilling down in data in Excel spreadsheets, and need a quick lesson in SQL to do what they already know, and to take the next step out of Excel spreadsheets and into a real database. In this case, CodeAcademy's examples are actual scrubbed visitor data to the CodeAcademy website. There are extra tables in the schema describing all sorts of relevant fields useful for a marketing professional, and for helping them talk to company web administrators to get the data and the analysis they need to determine something like source of customer traffic (i.e. from schools or households, what neighborhoods to target new billboard advertisements), or for the web administrator in purchasing more gear to increase the website's the browsing capacity.
CodeAcademy didn't do a great job in explaining where their lesson plan is coming from, but depending on their audience, it might be how they chose to use their lesson development time.
Look into SoloLearn https://www.sololearn.com/Course/SQL/ perhaps, for a straight up course in SQL, with simpler starting table structures. It won't have the data analysis stuff of the Code Academy course.
I'm guessing the Khan Academy stuff on basic data analysis might be too easy for you, but if not, start there, (you can also jump to the "Data Inference" section)! https://www.khanacademy.org/test-prep/sat/sat-math-practice/new-sat-problem-solving-data-analysis/v/sat-math-q1-easier
Ewww don't pay for Udemy and Skillshare yet.
I can start you off with: https://www.sololearn.com/Play/CSharp To Learn C# coding
and Unity: ( Brackeyes ) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYbK_tjZ2OrIZFBvU6CCMiA one of the best Unity guys out there.
There is also Blackthornprod and Code Monkey, but Brackeyes has some ( in my opinion ) the best fundamental tips.
And also the Unity site has tutorials in general on basically everything, from API to Unity Interface tutorial to making a game, but while the videos are not as "fun" to watch, they are sure informative and I still do recommend them next to Brackeyes
You don't need to know anything coming in, per say, but watching people fail 115 would suggest otherwise. It depends on the person, and what skillsets they have coming in. I aired on the side of caution and did some prep that paid off. I used this site https://www.sololearn.com to learn languages and basic concepts before I started writing any code. It helped expose me to tons of important stuff, even if it wasn't done in great quality or detail. Explore/Google things that look interesting while you have time-- any exposure helps in the learning process. Everything starts out complicated in life, even walking; 18 years later though, it doesn't seem as hard. I've yet to meet a professor who has ignored my questions, even the people who get some flack in the department are entertained by questions about their field, especially so their work. Best of luck coming in; if you care enough to ask questions early on, you care enough to succeed and be successful!
Ah, can't help you with the examples there, but there are plenty of people that develop VR Games in the Unity engine as a hobby, you'd want to learn C# though.

Here's the link I found for C++. http://www.gamefromscratch.com/post/2011/08/04/I-want-to-be-a-game-developer.aspx#Cplusplus. And I believe youtube has many C++ lessons.
Edit: Also here for interactive programming tutorials
I believe that Sololearn (https://www.sololearn.com/) can be a good choice for someone's first steps as a programmer. They have several beginner courses available that you can install on your phone. Each course is a series of short lessons with multiple choice questions related to the topic. There is no actual coding involved. Once you can establish that your wife has an inclination to programming you can move to more advanced courses.
Edit: i am in no way associated with Sololearn.
That's good to hear, I started a while ago, about a year or so ago, wanted to see how others got started and what their best advice is.
As /u/ManTheDragon said, Codecademy is a great place to start. I learnt Python there.
SoloLearn- https://www.sololearn.com is also another good place, if you have an iOS device you can download their apps and learn on the go.
I'm commenting again because I have a bit of time now. I was in a rush this morning:
CodeAcademy and Udemy are the fking TedX Talks of learning things. Any idiot who's willing to jump through a hoop can toss something up on the site and now they have the resume padding of "a course on X site" they were really after.
Other than learnpython.org, I did have a student say that the non-pro SoloLearn is a great resource. I can't speak for it myself, but it might be worth a shot. In the end, though, you'll get what you pay for, and paying a company like SoloLearn might be a far better idea than tossing some money at a Udemy course. IF you were going to spend money at all, I'd recommend googling around and looking for a college (local or not) that offers online courses in your area of interest and just enrolling. Here's some from Harvard for free.
If you do find anything you like, please edit your post and include links, or at least DM me and let me know. I've been toying with the idea of adding a real FAQ page with links to commonly asked questions and such, like this one.
i dont know whether you want to learn a new language or master something you already know, if you want to learn something new maybe try this, obviously not a book, buts its very interactive if you prefer that kind of learning: <strong>https://www.sololearn.com/learning</strong>
I doubt anyone has mastered a language on this website but its good to gain fundamental/ intermediate understanding.
For continuing at an advanced level. I'm sorry but idk.
This great sub-reddit has plenty of suggestions. I don't study through YouTube, so I can't give you recommendations there.. But I can recommend sololearn and AutomateTheBoringStuffWithPython. I'm finding both these resources fantastic methods to get your hands dirty and start coding as soon as possible.
I would look up intro to python videos on YouTube. You can also use https://www.sololearn.com/ to practice python syntax. From there I would look up beginner python projects like hangman or something that people have done and have posted code for, so that you can try to on your own and reference their code when you get stuck.
But, I wouldn't worry too much. My friend went into that class with no programming knowledge and she found it really easy and doable (she had Nathan Taylor).
www.sololearn.com is interactive and pretty good to pick up basic syntax. It's very beginner-level, however.
https://java-programming.mooc.fi/ The Helsinki Java MOOC is amazing in that there's course structure and tons of practice problems in your IDE and you can check your answers,
In all of your process into starting your new career you will not be the only one who struggles or feel you don't belong or not good enough. Some of this can come down to "impostor syndrome". But don't worry, try and remember every step of the way you have earned where you are, even now.
Onto the rest, everyone learns at their own pace so how fast you're learning or how well will vary person-to-person. Don't be too hard on yourself.
About bootcamps. I don't personally like them myself, and I have worked with people out of a bootcamp and those who are only self-taught and have found those who didn't attend a bootcamp and were just self-taught preformed better for some reason. Maybe it was they weren't trying to validate going to a bootcamp in the first place, not sure. But it works for some people so again, that depends if that's something you feel will help.
Take a look through free code camp and SoloLearn.
Those two will help you getting started.
And even if you go through a bootcamp, as soon as you finish some of free code camps tutorials and some practice on your own that you feel you have basics (loops, logica statements like if's, switch, even further by reading from data which could be a list of strings or an array or from an excel sheet) then start applying to all entry and Jr level rolls. People will hire as long as you can demonstrate you know basics like those listed and can fit in culturally.
Good luck!
There are many one-day courses for Java. For a quick overview of a new computer language I can suggest to check this (as an example): https://www.sololearn.com/Course/Java/
I’ve completed about ten courses at this site. Each course you can pass in a day. The site is optimized for using it from mobile phone or iPad. The main benefit for me is sand box (iPad) for many programming languages.
Learn about python first. I get that you are eager to make your bot, but it is crucial you understand python, async libraries, and discord.py of course.
Here is the link to the Discord.py docs.
To get a jump on learning python for free, I recommend a site named Sololearn.
THe decorator mentioned previously is a shortcut, allowing you to easily create commands. For example:
@bot.command() async def hello(ctx): await ctx.send('World!')
https://www.sololearn.com/Course/SQL/
​
Enjoy - Had everything i needed to start a new job, knew nothing before this course and taught me the required fundamentals
I found the courses to be extremely helpful, and yes, all of them are completely free. Sololearn has a quite comprehensive Python course touching on magic methods, object orientation, regular expressions, recursive functions, and much more.
https://www.sololearn.com/Play/Python
I've completed the vast majority of the "Very easy" and "easy" challenges on Edabit to test my skills, and I learn new things every day.
languages are tools. that being said every tool has a specific purpose that makes that tool viable. python wouldnt exist if it were inferior or obsolete. i feel like youre catching hell just because youre not king shit yet. take a few courses on sololearn and get some more languages under your belt.
or get something that injects code like a usb rubber ducky and show them what python can do in the right hands. god speed sir
Yeah!
So I started by going to https://www.sololearn.com/
This is a very good site to learn the basics. Logic, Structure, How the code works and so on.
From there I went to r/LearnProgramming . This sub has lots of resources for you to use and learn from and lots of ideas and questions being asked and answered.
I also found some programers that livestream on twitch. Here is a serise for beginning C# by DevChatter.
Then from there I was just using the sub from above to get ideas of what to code next to get experince. Such as Chess, Pong, and other types of basic games.
And that is about where i am at right now. I plan on expanding into HTML and Java and JavaScript. Possibly python. Take your time and put in the hours. Its just like learning another language (because it is!).
Check out the site SoloLearn. It's a great site that has classes for a dozen or more programming languages, plus it gives you a progression system to make it fun and keep you engaged. I've been meaning to start learning programming and my buddy recommended the site. I'm starting with Python!
https://www.sololearn.com/Play/cplusplus
SoloLearn es súper fácil para aprender lo básico de cualquier lenguaje. La app tiene los cursos en español, no tiene anuncios ni premium y funciona offline.
I recommend learning some of the basics to Ruby, time allowing, before you start Software Engineering. Watson doesn't teach it, but part of your grade early on is doing the SoloLearn courses for the language, which don't take a lot of time and will help you with some of the earlier coding assignments.
Also, make sure you have a Cloud9 account ready to go, as you'll need it for Software Engineering and possibly Operating Systems (I had a different professor, but I believe they have similar curricula).
Good luck!
It's how we do stuff. We take a big problem and make it into many small ones instead. These are solved and tested one by one.
That is what small functions allow you to do, isolate the problems. The smaller the function is, the less likely it contains some convoluted logic - or any errors. And also, it allows you to build up a vocabulary of 'new' custom commands. As for all practical purposes, a function call is a command call, only difference is, you made the function.
Anyhow, you got much to learn, and you won't do so by tomorrow. Which by now is today :)
You should watch some videos on introduction to programming to get you up to speed. If Arduino is your thing, then learn any one of the other languages in the C family to get some more understanding of the general principles of most programming. I'd recommend C# or Go. Probably the easiest to get started with.
Bernacules got some easy going intro to C# programming using VS2017 on Win10. Once you've looked at those, then perhaps head over to sololearn and take their little free course.
All in all perhaps a weekend or so of some relaxed studying that will give you a good idea on the basics of programming - even some OO concepts. though for Arduino, you strictly speaking do not need the OO features. Going entirely Procedural is fine. Which by the way is how programmers are observed to write most their code in the wild... :)
W3School is a good place to get started it has loads of references and guides for languages related to web pages. Best bit: it's free.
SoloLearn is where I got started with coding and is where I get all. My beginner information from. you can learn a plethora of languages with this one and its all free. it doesn't teach you everything but it teaches you enough to get you going. Another great thing about SoloLearn you can take the courses with you with the mobile app.
Link to W3school: https://www.w3schools.com/
Link to SoloLearn: https://www.sololearn.com/
I found https://www.sololearn.com/ super useful.
small increments of learning and the ability to tweak things and see what happens in every one paragraph lesson. it's free and has a ton of languages. IDK how far along you are, but this stuff is pretty beginner (terminology and basic syntax).
Heya! Thanks again man! I love your passion, it's so inspirational, what you envisioned was fucking awesome, and it's exactly what we need, you're very astute :) I love the online university as well, I'm much more receptive to self-teaching, as I've found learning java on the go to be enjoyable. I'm using https://www.sololearn.com/, and I'm enjoying it so far, even if it's a bit hard to wrap my head around at first.
I love your suggestions, I think that's a good idea, something simple and open, to grow from there. I'd like to be open about the intentions from the start though, otherwise it'll just ruin civilization all over again. I don't want anything obscured from others, if you get what I'm saying :)
Maybe I should start a github? This is all so new to me as well!
Thank you for everything!
The best option if you have excellent memory would be learnxinyminutes. It goes through most of the points of Python very quickly, but has no user interaction. If you learn best by doing, I'd instead recommend SoloLearn. Although I personally used CodeAcademy to learn Python3, the course itself is Python 2.7.
I'm in the same spot as you. What did a lot for me, is this course.
https://www.sololearn.com/Course/Java/
It goes quite far in depth and explains the great majority very well, with tons of examples and a few "tests" which I find often enough a bit too easy tbh but all separate fields have enough information for you to actually understand what you are learning.
It is all written, no talking, not overly complicated, because they're trying to make it easier, as they do with the Google course.
For me personally it always helped writing stuff down that I'm learning, so I have the whole course in handwritten form, which helped me a lot. There are a few categories which one has to go through several times and maybe do some more research in order to really understand the subject but I'm pretty satisfied so far.
I've just transitioned from programming to cyber security. And I believe that's what is going to be huge. But either way, technology is the future and its never going away. Just do some research on what is going to be the next big thing. A good site for learning programming for free is https://www.sololearn.com/
Anyone else tried SoloLearn?
App: https://www.sololearn.com/ Type: Free
Its a free app to learn coding and does not have lecture videos. It is based on exercises/ puzzles and quizzes.
Its not to learn programming for first timers, but it is for people who know one and want to brush up or learn another language. Very fun and addicting and quick. While traveling/on the bus this is perfect.
I brushed up C++, Javascript and python with it. I keep it in my phone and go to it once in a while. Very neat, simple UI.
The app won google's worldwide app competition recently and got a lot of funding.
Hey, beginner developer here too! I actually just learned basic SQL maybe a month ago through these two links:
I started with Code Academy but tbh after taking both I heavily prefer Solo Learn. Best of luck!
You both can start learning programming basics from SoloLearn. Then, you feel confident enough start working on small projects. Learn some advanced things from Udacity. Also I'll recommend to learn React Native to create cross platform mobile apps.
Stick with it! or change courses for a while if you havent paid for it anyway!
If you are having difficulty with one assignment you probably haven't got the base it is built on to that point, go back, or better yet, try another course that may explains things in a way you will get it, then go back to the exercise. I would suggest the ones I did and liked a lot:
https://www.sololearn.com/Course/Python/ Good course, python 3
codecademy.com/learn/python
you have to mind that it is python 2 so you have to keep in mind the print/print() differences and raw_input() is now only input()
And please also try to learn about algorithms and programming logic, there is a lot more to programming than "learning a language".
You can start with this - I love this teaching site.
My uni course on the subject was heavily based on The Big Nerd Ranch's Android Programming guide - I'm not sure if there are better options, but if you can find a (legal and completely legitimate) pdf, it'll get you moving at least.
The environment I used, and that was used in the book is Google's Android Studio, which is free.
I don't know of a specific explanation of scope but here are some things that you'd probably find useful:
- http://pythontutor.com/cpp.html (ignore the domain name, that's the c++ page) This will show you how stuff gets allocated on the stack.
- https://www.sololearn.com/Course/CPlusPlus/
Here's what I recommend for learning c++ https://www.sololearn.com
You could probably skip module 1 and 2 and really only need to know up to module 5 or maybe 6.
They have mobile apps so you can even do the exercises while waiting on stuff in public somewhere. Only thing to keep in mind is that a bunch of c++ libraries like streamio and STL don't exist on Arduino so not everything there works on Arduino (like "cout" doesn't work, but core features like functions, classes, templates, etc do work).
RobotC is almost the same as vanilla c but I don't think it has any features of C++
Also I know you said no exercises but I have to recommend this company: Solo Learn You can download their apps for free and it's a very easy step by step course of the most of the popular languages. You can choose what language you want to start with. If your a beginner their mobile courses are great to learn from. If your intermediate you can still learn some things and even refresh your knowledge. I use their apps when I'm hanging around for a couple minutes a day somewhere and rather then browse the Internet I learn and practice my programming. You can download their mobile app on android and iOS. Definitely an essential for me!
There're some very no-pressure courses out there. I've been doing the Python course on here for ages and it's fantastic. You literally just do it when you want to, no worrying about someone seeing your tests or your work or anything like that, and the tests are incredibly short question-wise.
Just pick a language that you've heard of, and if you finish and realise what you learnt is mostly worthless, you'll have enough of an idea that you know what you're looking for the second time around.
From what i know, the bucket count should be initialized to the nearest prime number above what is passed to the constructor of the unordered map, according to this: https://www.sololearn.com/Discuss/2792109/what-is-the-logic-behind-the-bucket_count-value/ the default bucket count should be 1, thus should never be zero upon initialization. In my case it is and i cant figure out why. When its zero, it gives a dived by zero error around line 433 of hash_policy.h
Yep its an online course from this website called sololearn. I dont fully understand the second question you had but they have some application integrated in the website itself I think, and when they give questions you can type it down and try it out there itself. Heres the link thatll take you directly to the course:
I can sincerely recommend "Computer Science Distilled" book to start with. I read it three times in a row when I was beginning my coding journey, and it was truly eye-opening.
Then I advise you to go with a high-level approach that will allow you to quickly overview multiple programming languages and core technologies. I can sincerely recommend https://www.sololearn.com. When I was beginning my dev journey, this app really changed my understanding regarding the range of possibilities regarding programming languages.
Afterwards, I recommend to continue with more scoped tools that try to help you to master your chosen programming languages. My preferences are CodeWars and Exercism. You cannot lose when you get better and better at learning your main weapon, i.e., the lang you're going to daily code in.

It's a JavaScript course. So given your experience level, I advise you to start with something less focused and more high-level. I can sincerely recommend https://www.sololearn.com. When I was beginning my programming journey, it really opened my eyes to the vastness of programming languages.
Det er da en flot karakter.
Inden jeg læste på henholdsvis uni og erhvervsakademiet havde jeg ingen foregående kendskab til kodning, kun en naturlig interesse for computere, elektronik og gaming.
Men hvis det kunne være af interesse for dig kan man tage mange gratis "kurser" på nettet i basis kodning. På datamatikeren starter man typisk ud med at lære Java da det er godt begynder sprog.
Jeg brugte følgende hjemmeside til at komme i gang med Java da jeg startede på datamatikeren: https://www.sololearn.com/learning (en form for duolingo med programmeringssprog)
Når du har lært Java er et naturligt spring at begynde at kigge på C#, og det vil der muligvis være valgfag på uddannelsen der tilbyder, antaget at det bliver efterspurgt nok.
Og da vi jo (desværre) lever i et Microsoft land er C# utroligt relevant når du kommer ud på den anden side og skal have et job :)
Jeg havde selv C# og iOS udvikling som valgfag, sidstnævnte var jeg ikke stor tilhænger af men alternativet var android, så pest eller kolera (jeg har ingen interesse i at lave apps).
Pues, en Platzi, hay muchos cursos sobre programación o lo que quieras, aunque es de paga. Si buscas algo gratuito, SoloLearn tiene muchos cursos sobre lenguajes de programación; De hecho yo empecé en SoloLearn, aprendiendo Python. También tienen cursos de HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Angular + NextJs, Reeact + Redux, Kotlin, Java, etc, y lo mejor de SoloLearn es que tiene un compilador de código para prácticar lo que has aprendido.
PD: Ambos tienen aplicación para Android.
I didn't know about Udemy. FreeCodeCamp provides You with an active community you can relate to at some point which is good for networking. And then there is also SoloLearn.com which also offers an app, specialization courses, the opportunity to challenge other users and various practice exercises. If you decide to check it out feel free to reach out to me to challenge me or ask me questions: https://www.sololearn.com/Profile/24376750/?ref=app
https://www.sololearn.com/home is 100% free and has C# courses. Unity uses C# and therefore you need to at least understand the basics of C#. I recommend putting Unity down for a while and putting enough effort into it to get to a point where you're comfortable in making a program for most things. If you need help do not hesitate to join us over at /r/csharp. C# is a very powerful language which has the ability to make calls to native libraries so you can get as low level as you're comfortable with or just stick to what libraries have to offer.
https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/index.html is the scripting documentation for Unity. If you want to know how to do something you will refer to this. For example if you want to know how to load a scene you will search (top right) "Load Scene" and all relevant information will be given to you.
https://github.com/ktaranov/naming-convention/blob/master/C%23%20Coding%20Standards%20and%20Naming%20Conventions.md is the coding conventions for C#, please follow standards if you are going to be asking for future support, it makes the code a lot more readable and makes it more likely that people will respond to you.
I will tell you now to steer clear of Brackey's tutorials. It is full of outdated information people are still running with and overall bad practices.
I dont create mods but assume it means having to learn computer programming/coding some what.
There are sites available like (learntomod)[https://www.learntomod.com/] and (SoloLearn)[https://www.sololearn.com/home] but you may need to assist them and I believe they might be subscription based.
Hope this helps and fair play that they're 7 and learning this stuff 🤘
The course is designed for people with no prior experience.
For external resouses, I recommend sololearn. I personally find the pacing of youtube videos to be hard to follow. They usually don't know your background so they either skip too much or explain too much. Or they just keep coding so you end up just copying whatever they type.
The course itself doesn't involve much math, but if you're thinking taking more cs courses in the future, you can consider taking mat137 and mat223, as they are prerequisites to some upper year cs and stats courses. They won't help with csc108 though.
I'd say the level of memorization is very little if you're familiar with writing code. So if you write some small programs, make some personal projects, the course is more about logic than memorization. It's like giving you a toolbox and asking you to fix something. They don't ask you to memorize the function of each tool and the steps to fix it, but you need to know how to use the tools and come up with some way of fixing it.
For resources on campus, I'd say they're probably unnecessary at this stage. Online resources are just as good for now.
I have also been doing an online course to try get me up to speed with React - https://www.sololearn.com/learning/1097
I have done a bit of JS before but that was 2 years ago and I'm not really confident in it.
Sololearn is really good. https://www.sololearn.com/home
It has an upvote system for commetn from other people that are learning that can help you understand things you got wrong explained in different ways.
Io ho trovato il corso gratuito di SoloLearn utilissimo, chiaro, semplice e preciso. Inoltre sullo stesso sito trovi tutorial di altri linguaggi come Python, Ruby, SQL, php, HTML eccetera.
Inoltre un altro strumento è ovviamente YouTube, ti consiglio di imparare da lì le cose un po' più complesse (a partire per esempio dalla programmazione ad oggetti, che secondo me è più facile imparata applicata alla pratica piuttosto che solo studiando la teoria).
+1 for https://www.sololearn.com
I don't know why it doesn't get more love? Maybe people find it too basic, but I find it quite challenging enough, especially when you get into the more advanced modules for each course. I particularly like the format of interspersing learning with quizzes, and it gives some very encouraging feedback when you have a good 'run' of correct answers.
Si queres pagos tenes los de educaciónit, sino hay miles de cursos por YouTube, en español te recomiendo codigofacilito. Unos súper interactivos y que te ayudan mucho son los de SoloLearn, te dan teoría, práctica y desafíos dentro de la misma plataforma, lo podes usar desde la compu o bajarte la app e ir haciendo en cualquier lado.
También hay unos cursos gratis de google que al terminar te dan un certificado, no tiene ningún valor oficial pero si estás buscando tu primer trabajo es un ayudin meterlo en el cv
I don't know much about C and I'm just trying to understand C #at school and I made an account on sololearn to understand it better, I'm understanding a little but it's not been enough time to understand even though they have given me a worksheet in my university.
Have you talked to your parents about the dilemma, see how they feel?
In terms of SQL there's tons of free resources like: https://www.w3schools.com/sql/default.asp https://www.sololearn.com/ https://www.datacamp.com/courses/introduction-to-sql And there is also Dataquest.io, but it's a paid service.
Prvo odluci sta zapravo zelis programirati jer ima raznih mogucnosti. Ako zelis raditi npr. web stranice onda pogledaj koje se sve tehnologije i jezici koriste u tom podrucju i pocni uciti one programske jezike koji se najcesce koriste. E sad koji vodic koristiti tesko je reci jer svatko ima neke svoje preferencije, a i uvijek se da nauciti od razlicitih izvora mnogo toga. Ja ti evo mogu preporuciti za pocetak da koristis SoloLearn jer je meni pomoglo kao neki uvod za nauciti neki programski jezik. Naravno tu postoje i mnostvo knjiga za svaki poseban programski jezik, a i opcenito o programiranju kao npr. knjiga Clean Code je jako popularna i doslovno mnogo naprednih programera ju preporucuju. Naravno nista od tog ucenja nebi bilo ako ne napravis neke svoje projekte koje ih onda kasnije mozes iskoristiti za prijavu posla jer vise vole vidjeti na kakvim si projektima sve radio nego da im kazes da znas ovo ili ono.
Sololearn is great. The courses are completely free and you can sign in with Google. There is a pro version though to be honest I'm not entirely sure what comes with it.
I have 100%'d: C++, HTML, C#, JavaScript, jQuery
I haven't finished: Python, Ruby, Java
Hey Luc!
C# is a good language for making games, although it might be a bit hard for a complete beginner. If you still want to go for it, there are infinite tutorials in YouTube, but I'd rather go with something like https://www.sololearn.com/. In that site you can learn the basics of any language you want. They will guide you.
But if I were you, and knowing that you've already done some html and css, I'd start with Javascript. I did the same when I was 16 and I liked it a lot. You could learn all about variables, loops, functions... And then make very simple games for your browser.
There’s quite a few places you can run python, python online gdb,sololearn playground, and of course the official compiler
You can get a nice overview of most concepts from https://www.sololearn.com/learning/1051 and then follow specific topics as needed. Other resources mentioned in previous answers will help to deepen your understanding.
I started from sololearn and I fully recommend it! It teaches you pretty much the absolute basics of a language so don’t expect to get all of the information from the website/app.
Personally, I think a good starting language would be Python just because the syntax is pretty easy to get. But, feel free to try all of the languages on Sololearn to see which you enjoy the most. Once you find the language you want to pursue, finish the course and start building your skills elsewhere. And also, make sure to join the r/learnprogramming subreddit.
You're using a single = in you conditional expression.
if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.E) && (scoped = false)) { scoped = true; camFOV = 35; }

When I started to learn Java I didn’t use editor at all. I used sandbox at Sololearn to write sort programs. I solved all 111 code challenges on my iPad and write more then 350 code bits. It was very easy and fast. No need computer and heavy IDE.
There is my profile at SoloLearn. https://www.sololearn.com/Profile/15186890/?ref=app
I even use GitHub without a computer. I publish all my code from iPad directly to GitHub. So I write and run programs on iPad and publish it to GitHub from iPad.
https://github.com/rabestro/sololearn-challenges
All programs in the repository I had write on iPhone or iPad.
Sololearn is a good website/app that you can use. It’s mostly for beginners though, so it pushes you in the right direction, but after finishing a course on sololearn you’ll be on your own, which is not too far off from normal anyways. Be sure to make sure you understand what’s going on before moving on. And you can always go back if you need to.
I always recommend SoloLearn to people - even experienced programmers. Nice little bite-size lessons and quizzes. You can even challenge your buddies! It's not perfect, but it's a pretty decent way to keep yourself fresh and learn new bits and pieces. Better than doomscrolling when you've got free time!
First you will need to know the basics of programming. I recommend C++ because is what most hobbyist use, so there is a large community for you tap for help.
Buy an Arduino($10-$30) and some basic components(servo motors, bread board, LEDs, etc).
Find a simple project you want to try. An LED light cube is a great way to start learning electrical engineering.
solo learn is a good app to learn basic programming languages.
I like to recommend SoloLearn as a good free learning platform for a variety of languages. Codecademy is pretty good too. I've learned quite a few languages and I also got extremely bored when trying to make it through some of the basic stuff.
I've found that I learn the most when working on a project that I came up with. It's just more fun than trying to follow a tutorial or something like that and you will find yourself going down a rabbit hole every once in a while when trying to figure something out, which further expands your knowledge.
It doesn't have to be something big or even useful that you are making, nor does it need to be anything unique. Something like a simple math quiz program can give you a lot of knowledge and experience in the language.
I was completely new to python and praw too when I started, it's great for learning :) Writing some bots actually lead to me being a software developer now.
Here's an example bot in the praw documentation. I think you can adapt it for your needs, as you also need submissions. Going through the documentation starting at 'Quick start' also saves you a lot of time. If you're stuck, try searching the documentation, if you can't find anything, search for your problem via google on stackoverflow. Good luck!
​
Edit: Oh, and for learning python in general, try the course on https://www.sololearn.com/Course/Python/
Here are a few links to some great resources I recommend to everyone who is new all free:
free code camp - Has videos and follow along tutorials
solo learn - Has a simple basic introduction to syntax, great for anyone new to programming
W3Schools - Great, simple documentation and tutorials to follow along
You can send me a message if you have questions you feel need to be addressed more than just commenting!
Good luck, hope you like it and have a fun career later in life with it!
i would like to add:
DaVinci Resolve is a Hollywood grade video editing software which is free to use unless you need collaboration features (meant for large teams)
https://www.sololearn.com/ is a awsome place to learn coding, its what i always recommend for python 3
Meshroom is a open source software for creating 3d models from images (photogrammetry)
I am not sure how the job market looks over there right now for you all, it's slow here in the US in my area as far as I know. So that'll be something that leads into my first thought.
Search jobs, see what their descriptions say. Do research into the larger pieces (by this I mean, does she want to work in Java, C#, Python?) then work on small projects at home to re-familiarize yourself with programming. Seeing what frameworks and libraries companies like to use in your area might want to be the focus of you studies.
You should be able to find enough free resources online to be able to get your feet wet.
If not, these are my go-to recommendations when anyone is looking into learning something new, or from the beginning. Just to help get you started.
But while seeing what companies are using and it's clear what "main language" you might want to work in, apply to those positions. Just apply. It doesn't cost anything to you and someone somewhere is being paid to review resumes anyway. So apply. When you go in for interviews it will be important to demonstrate you CAN learn and that you are able to understand basics around programming (using classes, objects, lists, loops, if-else).
Any good employer knows what to expect from someone with little-to-no experience and will expect you to learn on the job and not expect the same level of work someone with even 5 years of working will be producing. And that's ok.
​
Good luck and I hope it works out! All the best.
Well I would advise you not to learn C for that ahah, that's the only programming language I know. I know a website, https://www.sololearn.com/
The courses don't cover all the information and their Python course kind of sucks, but I think the C# one is good.
Oh and by the way, I'm also a 15 year old kid who loves everything that is related to a computer! I started learning everything computer related one year ago, when I was fourteen. You said in the title that you love everything computer related, but just for reassurance: do you really like to learn everything computer related or just programming?
Maybe try some of the SoloLearn courses as a starting point. All free with language specific courses, available either via their mobile apps or direct from their website.
go through the C++ tutorial at https://www.sololearn.com/ and you will have a huge head start for that class. It can all run through your browser and you can easily learn the basics that way without needing to install anything.
I'm not an app developer, but I do have some coding knowledge. I took courses in college, and there's an app I found pretty nice for new programmers called SoloLearn. SoloLearn
This may help you understand some beginner fundamentals before diving into all development.
Best of luck!
Solo learn is a good place to start learning You can find it here : https://www.sololearn.com/
There are also really good YouTubers that teach you python but I don’t remember them sadly :(
Happy coding!
Are you new to programming? If so, I suggest Sololearn and Tutorialspoint.
Or are you looking for more advanced topics?
