I have become less of a manchild and have started doing the python exercises

@JimieWhales

I woke up in the morning today even putting up with the cold.

I watched a few videos about manhood that helped give me better direction.

I have not turned to anyone for support today and am getting better at doing things and making decisions independently.

Since yesterday but I forgot to tell yesterday, I have begun to study python book ( I am doing the learn python automation one as I find that easier to setup and go through ) and do the exercises along with the study. I am doing a minimum of 1 hr of python study in such a manner each day. Hoping to do even more every time I have extra free time at the end of the day.

I figured out the len, int, str, float, input, print, and round functions today. With practice.

Apparently python only has like 68 functions in total. So if you really were into it you could definitely learn python inside out in a month.

I have reached the mediocre adhd neurodivergent nirvana where I am able to freely flow between theory and application in a live build.

I am successfully able to become less of a manchild bit by bit. ( Apparently manliness is something that is earned with great effort, not something that is naturally grown into. )

Which leaves me with earning money and legal documentation updating work.

Good luck to me and good luck to you.

my advice for novice programmers is to try to build simple programs, and look up whatever you don't understand. also look at the source code of other programs and try to glean knowledge that way. Also consider learning Java or (if you are brave) C++. Good luck :marseyembrace:

My advice for notice programmers is to learn Haskell and visual basic because you need to learn early on life isn't fair and if you can't hack it just quit straight away and don't waste your brainlet time.

My advice is to just immediately start writing assembly, !codecels. I think recreating roller coaster tycoon is a nice simple task that will make you aware of the fundamentals

unironically every programmer should know at least a little so they know how good we have it and also so they have a better grasp on what CPUs are actually doing

programming conventions are nice but they suck when they are abused by people that have no idea why they are there. huge pet peeve is people doing this

int ZERO = 0;

most of the time they do that because they heard you shouldn't put "magic numbers" in your code. but calling "0" "ZERO" doesn't address the problem with magic numbers which is the fact that people don't know why they were there in the first place.

btw you people that complain about strict programming conventions have no idea what absolute horror can come from code that is not structured well. buddy I've seen methods that are ten thousand lines long. literally, that's not an exaggeration

Javascript is the obvious one along with JSON and HTML basics.

Right?

You can study those things if you want but the fundamentals remain unchanged no matter what programming language you use

yes. I am with you.

So I recommend a language that is fairly conventional like Java for learning and then try to transfer over to JavaScript. Btw there is no connection between Java and JavaScript.

Be warned tho, JavaScript is also its own beast. It is kind of dumb sometimes. In fact it is dumb most times. Far more than any other language

Tl;Dr: Just learn all languages you have heard of bro. Trust me all are used by some nerd out there and will get you a job. I am joking.

Java is generally for mobile and javascript is generally for online web pages correct?

Jump in the discussion.

No email address required.

no, Java is a language normally used in enterprise things. So, for instance, backend programming. Meanwhile, javascript is the language people use to write such things as webapps. In general, Java is backend (databases, business logic), JavaScript is frontend (display, animations, etc).

My advice :marseylifeadvice: for novice programmers is to learn :marseymoreyouknow:

object oriented programming :marseycodecel: + SOLID :marseypunished: principles, then forget about Liskov substitution because inheritance is r-slurred. Really :marseythinkorino2: try to learn :marseyreading: dependency injection. Look into how to build :marseyikea: a small :marseysnowglobe: project :marseydontplay: with clean :marseydarkspez: architecture, then throw :marseybrick: that shit away and use domain driven design :marseythumbsup:
