I just pray that we are not asked to pay any 17% of our income after graduation and that it is completely free. Because to me this seems too good to be true

Sandbox

Though some people prefer using their terminal or bash editor. But if you're not using the sandbox, you will have to link your sandbox to your terminal or the editor you chose to use.

I prefer the sandbox because I just go in, do the projects and review them to checkers.

Note: If the checkers fail you, you have to go back and check what we're doing wrong until you get it.

If you ignore the checker that grades your project, it is same thing as failing the project.

Head First C - David Griffiths, Dawn Griffiths this is about 44 mb

Sams Teach Yourself C in 24 Hours this is about 3mb

The_C_Programming_Language_(2nd_Edition_Ritchie_Kernighan) this is about 20mb

These are the C materials, search for them on google, you will find it.

Wow thanks.

Are the tutorials text based or they are videos?


Thanks.

Good Evening Everyone
I come with beautiful news and that's no exaggeration

The first is that, I wrote an article on Emacs, not going to force anyone to read but if you're curious, I will drop the link.

Secondly, I discovered through a colleague currently in the 6th cohort that the 80% score required, in order to continue the program is not just for the first month but every sprint!

Below, I'm going to share a picture of a guy who has been in the program since March (4 months) but score below 80%. So, if you survive the first month and relax, that might cost you your place in the program.

ALX SE team gracefully opening my day with this..

Classic1:
Thanks a lot guys, you guys have been immensely helpful, My cohort will start by August, So i don't have the intranet/sandbox yet.

But I have successfully installed the Linux(ubuntu) in my windows. (sidenote: win10 has an inbuilt linux, thats good to know)

I guess the next step is to download and install the editors (emacs, vi etc) into the linux or are they already there? Please forgive my lack of knowledge.

Also please guys can i get the C pdf? please, my email is classicgab at gmail dot com

Albertone:
Thanks.
But your instruction is not too clear.
Am I to type echo then ctrl c then ctrl f then > opening



Any idea how to do the terminal stuff?

Technerdguy:
You don't need to install all of them for now, ALX has a sandbox on the intranet that you can use for your tasks.
But you can have Bash install if you are on windows, or better still have Linux (Ubuntu) install in your system and just use the terminal.

Anonymous6o6:
You don't need to install them all since alx has a sandbox and you can use your terminal if you want. You just need to connect it from the sandbox.

Hello Anonymous, I can see you are currently soaring, I wish you all the best.
Meanwhile I understand you guys use SPCK to code on mobile phones, which software do you guys use for a computer.

I never thought I'll never share my own cuz I don't want to remember it but I will. Maybe sharing it will help me heal from that painful embarrassment.
We were suppose to have this group presentation at 300L and as always I was group leader. Naturally group leaders will present the topic to the class and the lecturers and the lecturer in charge of the course will award mark to everyone in the group based on the group's performance in the presentation and individual contribution to the assignment.
I don't have problem presenting, Infact I've done that all my school years. I was always group leader so I always present except if the lecturer opted otherwise but that particular course was not my favorite and I don't know nada in it. Infact I hated it so much that I only pick the note whenever I'm trying to sleep and it's not coming. I'll start reading it then sleep go catch me.

Knowing fully well that I was going to present the topic, I decided to cheat. What I did was simple (or so I thought until everything scattered) I recorded all the presentation paper on my phone, bought an earphone and thought to myself that I'll just play it and listen to it while I repeat after it.
To be fair, I practiced it at home several times that I had even memorized all the words and I should have just used that but I was bent on doing what I planned.
D-day came, class was full cuz presentation is always like a test. The marks are awarded and they represent your test.
I got to the stage and played the recording (did as if I wanted to adjust my phone)
Na so wahala start oo. Lecturer was like... What's the topic of your group... (recording don dey play oo)
I said it, I listen, record don go pass introduction, na so I start to dey stammer.
I should have just removed the earpiece from my ears and see if I'll remember some of the words I memorized when I was practicing my scam but I was bent on catching up with this God forsaken recording that was playing so fast.
At a point, I thought of reaching out to my pocket and pausing it a little so I can catch my breath but already everybody was looking at me with shock written all over their faces and taking out my phone was a bad idea.
Everything just scatter. Luckily, one of the group members noticed that I wasn't myself, he quickly took it from me and started explaining the topic. He should have been made the group leader sef since that was he favourite course but na so dem think say na Kelvin fit do am...

Last last, after presentation, the lecturer looked at me and was like, what is wrong with you?
I said nothing sir. He said then that nothing almost cost your group 30 marks. Everybody in class bursted into laughter.
Funny enough, the recording was still playing, how it manage to still be playing when presentation has ended is what baffled me. I must have recorded it really slowly that even if I was repeating after it, I would have sounded like a big fool.
