MountainView:
Hello there, my fellow programmers and aspiring , now let me ask you,

Why did you choose to become a programmer??


For me, i picked interest after watching the TV series Kyle XY and I've enjoyed the journey so far...

For me it was 'Gameshakers' on Nickelodeon.

When I realised I wanted to be a data analyst. Then I went to uni where we’re taught java. When I get a proper hang of it I’ll need to learn python.
Dabbled a bit in web development(front end) in the past might have to do a bit of that whenever I’m bored.

crownedrookie:

I quite frankly started JavaScript less than half a month ago but I think this should be done by writing a code that checks if x(the number)%2 =1. The proper semantics to do this isn't in my scope currently though but soon enough! Correct me if I'm wrong

Lol...

Truth is, not everybody needs mathematics to be better programmers, but when you want to take programming to a whole new level, then you'd be needing mathematics and algorithms.

For prime numbers, you'll have to iterate through the numbers less than or equal to half the number, and check if they divide the number.

So, Using javascript

let isPrime = false;
let num = x; //choose the number yourself
for(let i = 1; i < Math.floor(x/2); i++) { //you can still use parseInt(x/2), it casts it to an integer
if(x % i == 0) {
isPrime = true;
break;
}
}


You can try and run this code. I didn't run it, 'cause I just typed with my phone.

HTML and CSS aren't difficult. If you have a functional PC, and can spend about an hour per day for practice, I'm sure you'll breeze through both within 2 weeks.

It's JavaScript that's the real deal.

I thought myself, so you can do it too. I recommend:
*HTML and CSS: design and build websites by John Ducket and
* Eloquent JavaScript

Thanks bro. Been practicing myself for a while now. Almost done with Css. I just feel I need expert around me for tutorial.

You're supposed to assume the number to be prime initially, with isPrime = true.
Then inside the if statement, if a factor is found, you set isPrime to false.

A faster way is to use Math.floor(Math.sqrt(x))

Also, the initial value of i cannot be 1, as any number % 1 = 0. This means no number will pass the test. Therefore, i should be initialized to 2 at the start of the loop.

Lolzzzz i did fortran 95 in school 2006 , i studied chemical engineering,,,, imagine fortran 95 in 2006 , OAU oooo.

ahah..Fortran
we now do python and Java in OAU

yusman14:
ahah..Fortran

lol...This old language.. It has no application currently

Well for the money and prospect but I find the technology very intriguing and exciting and that's what drives me.

Good morning to my gurus , I just start teaching myself JavaScript just a few weeks and i can say it's not easy like html and CSS, it takes me just a month plus to learn html and css, but looking at JavaScript it's another board game on is own... Any hints you can give me will be appreciated.. NOTE: I actually want to learn JavaScript script framework react js, but i must be proficient in JavaScript before I can dive right in, i just start learning programming language November.... Any help will be appreciated... Thanks

pocohantas:
Me that can't copy and paste. No interest biko.

Though I have a soft spot for people in that field- I think they are trying.

If programming was a communicable disease, I would be an expert for all the programmers I have been close to.

If only I can get 2 minutes of your time, you will be glad you spent it wisely...

After much observation, I understand that a lot of Nigerians wish to create a passive income or a side hustle online which is legit and can help them earn so much....

Upwork is one of such legit online site where you can work from the comfort of your home, thereby turning your comfort zone into your income zone.

Another advantage with upwork is the opportunity it's provide for you to work with foreigners, who have value for your services.

For example, when I deal with foreigners clients, I charge between 5 to 10 dollars for 500 words which is about to 3600 in Naira currency, but when I deal with Nigeria clients I hardly make #1000 for 1,000 words.


Now, I understand that alot of individuals wish to get on this platform and keep getting rejected... Smile.

That's the only disadvantage is upwork.

Now, I want to help just a few serious individuals who are ready to earn a fortune on upwork legitaimately.

With my approval algorithm, you will get a approved upwork account within 30mins.
I kid not.

You will also get free ebooks, Videos and links to writing proposals which has been tested and trusted.

If they were taught the right concepts then the language doesn't matter. Programming is like painting, a programming language like a paint brush. Give a bad painter the best paint brush and he'll still produce a bad painting, but a good painter can work with anything.

Though you shouldn't learn fortran in 2020

Hmm...ok
python is still the best for me currently

Backend : python is my primary language . Front-end : html, Css and JavaScript

wow we are on the same path

Lol, good choice

I usually loved the way people developed apps mostly games and this was what motivated me to be a programmer.
Currently i am a web developer and i spent over 4 years learning web development and some software development and i can proudly say i am good when it comes to writing codes and breaking keyboards.

I also create youtube tutorials on web development and software development here is the link incase you like some of it

Thanks for sharing this post.

Everyone wants to handle a section or service on the web. that's cool. the web is damn wide for all to get a space.

I am a web guy from the web development section and frontend practically and backend for security. (Lover of React and nextJs)... NO EGO(just me).
I have been following this thread to this point... I love it. if you are a beginner and confuse, worry less it is normal cus there is a lot of info, lang, framework/library online. so its confusion already. I am a learner too, every web personnel out there is forever learner. its a thing of mental disturbance sometimes(quoted a poster from the comments here)...lol
have explained this on some thread but will do it again here.

I will focus on web development.
Web development is of two sections primarily;
FrontEnd Developer
BackEnd Developer

1. FrontEnd Dev.
This is the beginning of the web and mostly a Web developer (not primarily the start of web cus you need to understand how the web wotk e.g HTTP, www... etc). but not everyone wants to be a frontEnd dev. but there is a need to have little knowledge of how things run in this section (e.g like Html, basic CSS).
now what a Frontend dev must know as a beginner
1. HTML
2. CSS
3. Javascript
4. Control version (am a fan of Github)....... this is very important for both frontend and backend dev. I have a detailed Ebook on GitHub as a CV.
There is bootstrap but forget it until you are good with CSS.
Graphics design knowledge is an advantage but not a must.

best resource. (ebook and online) I love so far.
https://javascript.info/
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/Getting_started_with_the_web (after reading the whole page, click Installing basic software and move on reading).
https://w3schools.com

after learning intensively the beginner lists I made. its time to choose a Javascript framework/library (it's for frontend ).

Have you heard that the framework is the machine? Framework/library makes it easier to develop a web app by writing pieces of code and link them together to make one powerful app. not compulsory to build all projects with framework or library E.g calculator, converter, static page. But building them with frame/library increases your confidence in it.

Frontend dev has their js framework and library used for UI rendering just as backend as theirs.

The popular ones are; don't mind the order of the list
1. Angular. (framework)
2. Reactjs (library) (nextJs and likes of others for server rendering--- still a frontend tool use with reactjs )
3. Vuejs (library)
......others not mention.

2. Backend Developers
The backend dev deals with logic, dynamic, security (frontend also deals with this when they work with js framework/library).
They know little of the frontend and have tools for interacting with UI and logics at the back.

Framework and Languages for backend respectively. --(framework are in bracket and lang with no bracket except ASP.NET with its lang. inside bracket).
laravel is the framework(PHP)
Django(python)
Express (Node.js/JavaScript)
ASP.NET (supported .NET language (C#, Visual Basic, etc.))
Flask (Python)
Ruby on Rails (Ruby)
Mojolicious (Perl)
Spring Boot (Java)

.... first 4 on the list are worth it. check this https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/First_steps/Web_frameworks to know factors to consider before choosing a framework.
.....................................................................................................
Control version (eg Github) is very important for all programmers.

for well comprehensive and practicing ebook and videos on FrontEnd and BackEnd Dev, beep me. check my signATURE to reach me. hope I make someone smile with career direction now in web dev.

there are some tools I don't mention, I don't want to derails you from your basic learning but as you learn you will know e.g Codepen(just like your note-keeper on fone).
Get a LinkedIn account and showcase your project when its time. you will know the time yourself.

yah.. if you have both dev section skill. GBAM.. you are a full stack developer (need to know some packages which I did not mention but trust me, on your way of learning the skill, you will surely meet them and forcefully learn them. , the guy that said is mental stuff will now understand the definition of that mental stress.... this happens only at the beginning).

HAPPy coding

someone should check out this my js code. ERROR: instead of 3 iteration output, it output 9 iterations. just bordering me since.

let z = [
    {id : 1 , age : 20},
    {id : 2 , age : 15},
    {id : 3 , age : 30}
]

let Obj = {
    oder1:{
        id : 1,
        name : 'Ben',
        club : 'chelsea',
        food : 'pie',
        stat : 500
    },
    oder2:{
        id : 4,
        name : 'Bolu',
        club : 'ManU',
        food : 'saws',               
        stat : 700
    },

    oder3:{
        id : 2,
        name : 'Julie',
        club : 'ManU',
        food : 'saws',               
        stat : 700
    }
                                         
}

z.filter(value => {
    for (const key in Obj) {
    if (Obj.hasOwnProperty(key)) {
        const element = Obj[key];
        value.id===element.id ? console.log(`hi ${element.name}. Id is correct`) : console.log(`invalid Id ${!String()}`);
    }
}});

Please guys checkout my PHP video and leave feedback/review. Other language like pyhton, sql, HTML, CSS are coming soon. My believe is that programming is easy, its the tutorials that makes it difficult for Africans to learn.
This is why I made the video, to teach Africans programming and core programming fundamentals/concepts by using illustrations that are close to the African environment

I choose it since I was in jss1 just because of the colour the notepad brings when coding then, but now I want to be an app and web developer.

but the journey is quite challenging because I only have a midrange phone.

Are you still interested and consider yourself smart?
