Programming / Re: Nairaland Programming Competition 2018 - Total stakes 210k!! by afonja112: 10:56pm On Nov 22, 2018 |
You guys can chose to go with dhtml's offer, here is how that can work. I am going to award overall 1st with 30k, overall second with 20k, overall 3rd with 10k. And DHTML is ready to award the best in each of the categories with 50k each. Are you guys for this? or should be look for another option? @Chatflick you are welcome, since the competition has not yet been determined, you can still troll in. Are you competiting or acting as a judge? |

^^^data collection something keh? where was that one stated o? By the way, registration is now closed o (we don allow one late comer already) I am thinking of something here that will be more beneficial to the programming community. How about we do it like this: We split the competition into three categories: Cat A - Desktop application ----> here the C++, node webkit, java people can do their thing Cat B - Mobile application -----> here the flutter, java/android/ios people can do their stuffs Cat C - Web application ------> area for the gods of web development to show themselves Anyone of the above contestants can pick ONE category ONLY where they want to show themself. And the price will now be reviewed to 1ST 30k 2ND 20k 3RD 10k At least that will spread the chances of people a bit. Now as to the content of the quiz, I will come up with something in my next post. |

I have built frameworks before, and I know this is the technique used by most frameworks to load stuffs so that you dont enter wahala with require/include things. |

anyone can suggest, it will help me think. i will decide on what to go with. |
Programming / Re: Nairaland Programming Competition 2018 - Total stakes 210k!! by afonja112: 1:16pm On Nov 22, 2018 |
So so, what do you suggest? I have been thinking about it too, and cant seem to reach a conclusion. |
Programming / Re: [PHP] How Can I Use REQUIRE For A Footer That Exist In Another Folder? by afonja112: 9:12am On Nov 22, 2018 |
Let me explain something: + resources ++ views +++ header.php +++ footer.php + app ++ template.php + index.php Let us assume you load the index folder, and want to include the app/template.php, here is what most people will do include "app/template.php"; //relative addressing Here is what i will do include __DIR__."/app/template.php"; //absolute addressing So let us now assume that inside the template.php you wish to include header.php, you best best is this include __DIR__."/../resources/views/header.php"; //this is absolute addressing still If you want to include footer.php inside header.php, then is best to do include __DIR__."/footer.php"; If you follow this guideline, you will get it better. 1 Like |

I have been thinking about it, I think I will go with this dude's advice. What I am thinking about earlier will not work because we have mixed developers, we need something basic that can be done with desktop programming like C++, and also with web and mobile techs. Let me go with zerozz suggestion, anyone with a good idea we might explore (for beginners mind you). zerozz: |

Programming / Re: Nairaland Programming Competition 2018 - Total stakes 210k!! by afonja112: 9:33pm On Nov 18, 2018 |
I have never heard of a situation where contestants decide on what to build before o. Note that whatever is built, the scoring system remains the same. We are not truly interested in the final product as such, it is the techniques that matter, so at the end of the day we pick something simple that everyone should be able to build. 3 Likes |

As for this competition, what will be built will soon get announced, no need prowling around the thread like this now. |

I dont really know the developers here like that, so it is hard for me to know pro developers from beginners. Maybe the moderator can help, who is the moderator sef? |

excellent responses, this is going to be quite interesting |

Exactly what to build will be stated around 20th of this month. But it will be something basic that deals with users in different location communicating with text and pictures, it can be a simple newsfeed or a chat - it will be properly described, and it will be basic in nature. No one is asking for a fully featured app mind you, just something basic, well-coded following good coding standards, code neatness. No copy-and-pasting will be allowed, the codes will be well-scrutinized too - there are ways of knowing if a work is copied from the WWW. 2 Likes |

Programming / Re: MCRYPT Function In Php by afonja112: 12:35pm On Nov 11, 2018 |
It does not come with php and has to be installed separately. If you are running php in some cpanel hosting, you need to enable mcrypt from the settings. If it is not present at all, it will need to be installed and included into the php config. |

hubcap:Pro-developers will want to do something for a bigger reward like 500k and will pass over stuffs like this. So that is why I said pro-developer make anyone no complain say the money small? Who are the contestants? Nobody is indicating interest to contest? You cannot lose anything for trying mind you. |
Programming / Re: Nairaland Programming Competition 2018 - Total stakes 210k!! by afonja112: 3:07am On Nov 11, 2018 |

Programming / Nairaland Programming Competition 2018 - Total stakes 210k!! by afonja112: 10:27am On Nov 10, 2018 |
Winners goes home with N 30,000, second goes home with 20k, third goes home with 5k. If you wish to sponsor, please indicate your interest and how much you wish to contribute. If we get sponsors, the prices can go up. How do you get this money? No strings attached, no conditions, no sentiments. There is going to be a challenge by 28th of the month expires for submission. The winner of the challenge will be the one to take the mentioned amount in Nigerian Naira into their bank account. Runner up may receive some recharge card/airtime. Is it for only developers? No, I don't know yet, in this case, we may need the review/comment of you all to let us decide if we should open this for designers as well(by making it a designers' competition).. What programming Language can I use? You can use pretty much anything you like, native android, phonegap, xamarin, or anything at all. Even web apps are allowed for that matter. You can do a desktop application as well. How do we know the winner? Their will be some judges which their names will be mentioned here, our judges will be rating your application (over 100%) according to: 1. Code neatness 2. Glitches of the Application 3. Followed rules for the challenge 4. Code consistency How do I register for the competition? You can register on this thread by putting: 1. Your full name 2. Your technology e.g. Native Android developer, web developer, desktop application development 3. Your gender Deadline for registration? This will be on 20th of this month; 12:00 noon. So we will be updating this post with the names of people that have registered so we can know how many of us are in the bus. Is this opened for Pro Programmers? No! Where will the project be hosted? You must be registered on Bitbucket, like I said earlier, this is going to be a learning curve for beginners, I may be posting some tutorials here(if needed) on how to post the project on Bitbucket. At least, some of you can know how to do versioning. Are corrections allowed? No! so you can learn fast, learn how to test your application. Corrections will be posted when the winner has been announced Are Frameworks allowed? Yes, but specify which Framework you are about to use while you register for the competition. Advantages This challenge will serve as a very opened class and learning curve for everyone here whether you are a beginner or not. From the comments by the judge(s), you will add one or two things to your experience. The only way programming can move forward in Nigeria is to share knowledge known in which we are lagging behind. Some people may be watching behind the scenes too, so you may be employed from here. Impossible is Nothing. Disadvantages None for now. When will the challenge be out? Soon when we reach a conclusion, so our deadlines may not be strict for now. Please watch this page for updates. |
