Learning programming is not something someone can really teach you. You can only be introduced to programming and you do the rest of the learning on your own, with some help from others who have gone ahead. 6 weeks will introduce you to programming, that is if the tutor knows what he is doing of course. 30K is a good price. I mean, you know what the so-called programming schools charge.

Taiwosam:
Me too. But I think if I'm going to make it to the boot camp at all tomorrow, I'll be very late. I just got a place to stay at today and I'll be travelling tomorrow.

Travelling tomorrow? To where? Punctuality is important.

mtchewww, this kind thing tire me, I told them I have only experience with little php, and that the first time I handled javascript was in codeacademy, I no know wetin this guys don do me like this oh, chai, wetin man go do na , RUBY!

People with some experience in programming are placed in other languages besides Javascript. You will be alright bro. You will make it. No cause for alarm.

Eya pele come to Yii2 we got that covered. I don't really like L5 , haven't seen any spectacular reason to jump board.

You don't know what you are missing out on. Try it, I assure you, you won't regret it.

  @if($categories->any)
      @foreach($categories as $category)
          <h3>$category</h3>
           <ul>
           @foreach($category as $aCategory)
              <li>$aCategory->item</li>
           @endforeach
          </ul>
       @endforeach
  @endif

I presume you are using the blade templating engine. And that you also have categories and items tables linked together by foreign keys and the relationships properly defined in your models.

Irelokeh:
THANKS GUYS DE PROBLEM HAS BEEN SOLVED!!

It'll be nice if you share your solution here so that people with similar problems could get help without 'thread proliferation'

Thanks

Old and stale

Nickzom:
It removes the non numeric on computation. I made it that way on purpose.
Thanks for discovering anyway but a user can easily make mistakes so I filter the non numericals during computation. You can try it out and see.

Tried this this morning. Can you just reject input that contains non numerics?

I'm not an expert in the field, you can ignore my opinion

Nickzom:
When I learnt JavaScript back in 2013, Everybody were telling me it is just a script language - client sided and cannot be used to write heavy applications.

Guess what I proved all of them wrong and I am kinda rocking on it in building all my web applications. I built my website from scratch and believe me my website is totally a HEAVY application. Instead of using java to create applets to integrate into my php. I used JavaScript all through.

Not only did it make my web application more effective and reliable, it made it super fast.

My web application does calculations and shows the steps in a very unique way.

Thanks to JavaScript, I thought you programmers should know.

You can see my work at www.nickzom.com

Have a nice day!

Great work. But your fields are accepting alphanumerics instead of just numerics. You should catch that error at validation.

GetAvenue:
The above code is not working, but fully functional when I do it in my "localhost".

The error it is showing me is thus:




Thanks and God bless.

You are using a wrong password/username for your mysql server.

review the values for those to ensure they conform with your online database settings.

Nairaland programmers, i can say am pretty good at web developement and designing, am very comfortable with PHP and JS(javascript). But being a high aimer, i want to proceed to software development, i spent day and night learning java, compiling and running my script with command prompt, but my main problem is where will i use my java knowledge and how will i use it, thanks in advance as you answer my question.

I have gone through all the comments on the post. But I still want to say something, hope am not too late. It's more of a question really.

Have you tried your hands on Java SE GUI programming and Database Development ? If the answer is NO. I will suggest you try your hand on these and the ideas will flow naturally. The truth is that web development and Desktop or mobile development are not different. What differs between them is just the platform and, perhaps, the need of the users.

Why all the discouragement. It is completely Possible. People have done it. I repeat; It is completely possible. Like khamiiid said. It depends on you. The resources and time you have. I work at Andela, fellows learn Javascript (MEAN stack, to be precise) in a month and build amazing projects with it.

0luwatope:
Javascript simple? I sabi html, i sabi php, i sabi css, i sabi mysql e remain javascript, now you that u are saying javascript is simple, give me a code that displays the current year only in js language. Op, start from the easy ones, i still recomment u start with html

if you have learnt php, then I don't see the reason why you wouldn't be able to learn Javascript in a month.

dhtml18:
E be like say all those boys writing funny codes have surrendered finally, and even the professors writing long epistles are no more. . . . .it is just me alone trollin' all over the thread!

Abeokuta at it again!

What is the dress code?

Casual and Comfortable.

both

tgmservice:
Is he just lookin 4 a bait to do his dirty laundry for him. See all dis wannabe programmers claiming gurus, if u hav really done something with all the programming u have learnt u won't be fighting 4 50,000 am sure u will just start googling around for codes to copy

If you don't have something nice to say, it's better to remain silent and keep your self respect.

kpodosky:
yeah, I know. you aren't the one typing from a tiny screen so I will take it as my fault.

dejt4u:
your english is bad..

Krak:
Can you pls shut up and stop disturbing those working on this project?
Stop being so pessimistic. This is a challenge and let our youths try and meet that challenge.
The harder the challenge, the better they will become.

I detect a derail... Are there mods on this forum?

How do we submit the code for assessment. I am assuming 'no holds barred' as concerning language of implementation. Is my assumption correct?

Programmers don't build intranets. Programmers can build you applications that run on the intranet.

You should be looking for a network engineer.

FincoApps:
lol it must be a joke

You can try it out. Follow the link.

Lagos Resident? Try one of CCHub or IdeaHub.

For fans of Arnold Schwarzernegger [ Did I spell that right?]. There is finally a programming language for us. It's called ArnoldC.

A man absolutely hated his wife's cat and decided to get rid of him one day by driving him 20 blocks from his home and leaving him at the park. As he was getting home, the cat was walking up the driveway. The next day he decided to drive the cat 40 blocks away. He put the beast out and headed home. Driving back up his driveway, there was the cat! He kept taking the cat further and further and the cat would always beat him home. At last he decided to drive a few miles away, turn right, then left, past the bridge, then right again and another right until he reached what he thought was a safe distance from his home and left the cat there. Hours later the man calls home to his wife: "Jen, is the cat there?" "Yes", the wife answers, "why do you ask?" Frustrated, the man answered, "Put that son of a b*tch on the phone, I'm lost and need directions!"

A MESSAGE FROM THE QUEEN

To the citizens of the United States of America from Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II

In light of your failure in recent years to nominate competent candidates for President of the USA and thus to govern yourselves, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your independence, effective immediately. (You should look up 'revocation' in the Oxford English Dictionary.)

Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will resume monarchical duties over all states, commonwealths, and territories (except North Dakota, which she does not fancy).

Your new Prime Minister, David Cameron, will appoint a Governor for America without the need for further elections.

Congress and the Senate will be disbanded. A questionnaire may be circulated next year to determine whether any of you noticed.

To aid in the transition to a British Crown dependency, the following rules are introduced with immediate effect:

-----------------------

1. The letter 'U' will be reinstated in words such as 'colour,' 'favour,' 'labour' and 'neighbour.' Likewise, you will learn to spell 'doughnut' without skipping half the letters, and the suffix '-ize' will be replaced by the suffix '-ise.' Generally, you will be expected to raise your vocabulary to acceptable levels. (look up 'vocabulary').

------------------------

2. Using the same twenty-seven words interspersed with filler noises such as ''like' and 'you know' is an unacceptable and inefficient form of communication. There is no such thing as U.S. English. We will let Microsoft know on your behalf. The Microsoft spell-checker will be adjusted to take into account the reinstated letter 'u'' and the elimination of '-ize.'

-------------------

3. July 4th will no longer be celebrated as a holiday.

-----------------

4. You will learn to resolve personal issues without using guns, lawyers, or therapists. The fact that you need so many lawyers and therapists shows that you're not quite ready to be independent. Guns should only be used for shooting grouse. If you can't sort things out without suing someone or speaking to a therapist, then you're not ready to shoot grouse.

----------------------

5. Therefore, you will no longer be allowed to own or carry anything more dangerous than a vegetable peeler. Although a permit will be required if you wish to carry a vegetable peeler in public.

----------------------

6. All intersections will be replaced with roundabouts, and you will start driving on the left side with immediate effect. At the same time, you will go metric with immediate effect and without the benefit of conversion tables. Both roundabouts and metrication will help you understand the British sense of humour.

--------------------

7. The former USA will adopt UK prices on petrol (which you have been calling gasoline) of roughly $10/US gallon. Get used to it.

-------------------

8. You will learn to make real chips. Those things you call French fries are not real chips, and those things you insist on calling potato chips are properly called crisps. Real chips are thick cut, fried in animal fat, and dressed not with catsup but with vinegar.

9. The cold, tasteless stuff you insist on calling beer is not actually beer at all. Henceforth, only proper British Bitter will be referred to as beer, and European brews of known and accepted provenance will be referred to as Lager. South African beer is also acceptable, as they are pound for pound the greatest sporting nation on earth and it can only be due to the beer. They are also part of the British Commonwealth - see what it did for them. American brands will be referred to as Near-Frozen Gnat's Urine, so that all can be sold without risk of further confusion.

---------------------

10. Hollywood will be required occasionally to cast English actors as good guys. Hollywood will also be required to cast English actors to play English characters. Watching Andie Macdowell attempt English dialect in Four Weddings and a Funeral was an experience akin to having one's ears removed with a cheese grater.

---------------------

11. You will cease playing American football. There is only one kind of proper football; you call it soccer. Those of you brave enough will, in time, be allowed to play rugby (which has some similarities to American football, but does not involve stopping for a rest every twenty seconds or wearing full kevlar body armour like a bunch of nancies).

---------------------

12. Further, you will stop playing baseball. It is not reasonable to host an event called the World Series for a game which is not played outside of America. Since only 2.1% of you are aware there is a world beyond your borders, your error is understandable. You will learn cricket, and we will let you face the South Africans first to take the sting out of their deliveries.

--------------------

13.. You must tell us who killed JFK. It's been driving us mad.

-----------------

14. An internal revenue agent (i.e. tax collector) from Her Majesty's Government will be with you shortly to ensure the acquisition of all monies due (backdated to 1776).

---------------

15. Daily Tea Time begins promptly at 4 p.m. with proper cups, with saucers, and never mugs, with high quality biscuits (cookies) and cakes; plus strawberries (with cream) when in season.

God Save the Queen!

PS: Only share this with friends who have a good sense of humour (NOT humor)!

Your last question fits the thread more than the title. There is nothing as best server side language. personally, my choice of server side depends on my need and the time at hand for the project.

Talking of favorites, I love Ruby on Sinatra because of the ease and speed of development.

But if I want to take performance into consideration, I love Java(JSP + Servlets)

MHO

Erza:
lol. sure thing danvery2k6
are you in the Rails class?

yep. it was actually Ruby on Sinatra not rails. it was fun

Erza:
Congratulations class8. Can't wait to meet you guys on Monday

Thanks boss. see you there.
