Hello guys,hws ur bootcamp goin?

**How did your boot camp go

Ans: It wasn't bread and butter oo! Think about stepping up your game to level 7 in two weeks! Then you'll have an idea! Men, our talents were truly ACCELERATED. And that's so cool. If you see the projects we INDIVIDUALLY built in LESS THAN three days, u go tro way salute! We're now more incredible than ever. You should ask tr3y, miketayo, louisdante and johnez1987 too.

should one have programming experience?, and was the project assigned to you or was it your brainchild?


plus, how fast pace was the Class?, can a beginner do well and were dere beginners there?...


THIS THREAD MISS YOUR LUCID EXPLANATIONS.

Programming experience is important to an extent, unless you are as smart as Einstein then you are good without it.
If you can solve the Homestudy all by yourself and can pick up new skills to like basic - intermediate level within few days then you good to go.

It was fun too, you get to meet great and like minds and also play some crazy morning games.

Tell us about the project you built and is the boot camp still on?

Calm down boyz... What's the fun if u don't find out urself. Just know u have to be very good with ur homestudy test so those of u always looking for solutions pls trying understanding those solutions.. Don't just copy and past... As for the projects.....it changes from time to time... The only ad I can give is pls learn how to u git...

1. Yes, programming experience will be an advantage.
2. The projects were assigned to us.
3. This boot camp was 67% about teaching us soft skills and observing how fast we adopt them. In that respect, yes, it was fast paced.
4. There were beginners all over. Honestly, no b by experience alone. The core requirements included completing given projects, submitting BY the deadline given, giving and receiving feedback etc. You just have to be able to grow immensely to meet new tasks.

Yeah, those morning games! E.g we played Fizz Buzz in real life!

Thanks...

JavaScript was used for this bootcamp, it's not guaranteed that JavaScript will be used for the next.

Of course it will help if you understand advanced JavaScript knowledge. The more you know the better.

Adios

Hahaha its true bro... but one needs to confirm something before heading to it... am nt in lagos and am a javascript core developer thats why am askng much questions...

They have accomodation for fellows so if you can talk with one or two fellows they will accommodate you for the two weeks.
Its just to sleep and wake up na. You will even see unused rooms to sleep in.

It might not be as cozy as your papa house though.

Please I need help with my code. I have this error popping up.

THERE IS AN ERROR/BUG IN YOUR CODE
Results:
Internal Error: runTests aborted: TestOutcomeEvent(handled=False, test=, result=, outcome='error', exc_info=(, TypeError('object() takes no parameters',), ), reason=None, expected=False, shortLabel=None, longLabel=None) is not JSON serializable

self.balance = balance

self.balance += amount
return self.balance
def withdraw(self, amount):

1. If how you pasted your code here is how you're trying to run it, then there are indentation errors in it. Cross check.
2. Don't set the default value of amount to zero in deposit(). Let it be whatever value the user specifies.
3. Use conditional statements in deposit() to check that the stipulated amount IS a number AND is > 0. Otherwise, error out.
4. Lastly, you need to use various conditional statements to ENSURE that you're working on the right type of input e.g that the amount supplied to withdraw is a number and not a string.

After 2 weeks since application day , I'm yet to get the homestudy test link. Could I have done something wrong? And my mails are being ignored.

You will get it, just keep studying.. So u won't waste time waiting for the link to be sent b4 u get started, try and check ur mailbox patiently , the spam folder.. The link could just be hiding somewhere in there... Goodluck

Okay, Thanks bro. It's not there, but I'll keep studying as you advised. God bless you .

When is the interview for this cycle and has anyone gotten a mail to that effect?

I really need help with my ALGO LAB. especially the prime number


def prime_number(num):
if num > 1:
for i in range (2,num):
if(num%i) == 0:
return False
else:
return True
else:
return False

The application is still on, I am sure the interview will be next month.

Your algorithm is not okay, assuming someone pass in 2000 which clearly is not prime, your algorithm will now start dividing 2000 with all the numbers between 2 and 2000. That is the definition of inefficiency.
Now imagine if you pass 2000000000, even my grandmother knows that is not prime in like 2 sec whereas your algo will spend minutes/hours trying to figure it out. That is if your Pentium 1 system does not hang and crash. Think of a better way.

What of a number like 19675467?

There are different algorithm for Prime number check Google bro.

Meaning no or little chance for amateurs and or beginners right? You just killed someone's zeal here. Oh why Andela why

No I didn't. Nobody can do stuff to you unless you want them to.
Once the passion is there, you will always find a way. Every pro was once an amateur.

What I'm saying above is you should be well grounded in the basics.
