The Hardest Topic You Encountered While Learning Any Programming Language? by logicDcoder(m): 1:39pm On Nov 27, 2020
Mine:
Java -> Multithreading Programming And Annotations
In Java even after watching the videos, I was still confused especially that multithreading programming. I had to download this books(Java concurrency I practice; The art of multiprocessor programming; and Concurrency in Java and design principles and pattern) and they really helped me a lot. But it was hard I had to spend hours (12 -> 13 hours) studying and practicing everyday, I worked like a beaver that period. It wasn't easy but it paid off.

C Language -> Pointers and I/O + Operating System.
Dealing with pointers in C initially was confusing but I practiced a lot in C and with time I mastered it. I used three to four textbooks and it was so stressful. Operating systems offed me especially when I was studying about processes, pipes and schedulers etc. men! This one rendered me speechless.

c++ - pointers and lamda expressions.
javascript - asynchronous programming
c# - my favorite programming language, maybe the functional programming part gave me problems sha but if i play best of post malone and open jetbrains rider my favorite ide there is c# or .net problem i cannot solve

Mine is Dynamic programming and Recursion. I only understand little bits of both and can also solve simple problems with them.

I think asynchronous programming in JavaScript is synonymous to multithreading in java.

OOP was too easy in java for me but multithreading na one kind demon be that and it's something that you can't skip. it very important when developing desktop software and web applications.

Omo no be yam for me that time, I spent 4months reading Java how to program by Deitel Deitel wrapping my head around oop concept, once I got rid of what's holding me down trust me, I ain't turning back.
But trust me its worth the effort

Good topic..
Mine is global and local variable. Still confusing till date.

Not also feeling the numpy, matplotlib etc syntax... I just feel it is just too complicated for no just cause.

And why so many programming languages? It is so confusing. Almost like having different English languages... I don't just get it. Why not stick to one language that can address all needs?

Re: The Hardest Topic You Encountered While Learning Any Programming Language? by Fuckingmallam45(m): 9:00pm On Nov 27, 2020
I remember the first time I tried to program in Visual Basic on Windows after having written relatively sophisticated code for DOS in C++ and Pascal. The event-based framework of Windows programming was different enough that it had me baffled for weeks. Then I slowly started to get it.

Then I got pretty good at VB and after a while I tried learning DirectX. I had built DOS games in C++ before but this time I was facing a completely different beast and just "getting a pixel to change colors" was a monumental feat - in part because with Direct X that is quite an advanced topic and so I had to re-learn what I thought I know.

And recently I've struggling with functional programming. I've been working as a professional developer for 14 years and as a .NET developer for about 8 and yet trying to implement a simple program in F# put me right back in that state of confusion.

Them many Sha...

At first.. increment and decrement were very hard but I now understand it...

The hard ones for me are

Array
Lists
Maps
Sets
Threads
Regex
Input/OutputStream
Files.

I know the basics but I can't apply them and the tutorial I was using nearly use tasks chase me comot from programming but I serve a living God... I dropped it and enter android thinking that would be very easy ...

Las Las we thank God

No Language is difficult, it's difficult because you haven't practice enough. By the time you do lot of practice, you will know that it's very easy.
