People saying we should wait till next year are jokers. We've given a group of thinking adults 10 whole months and they keep going back and forth the same issue. Lately, the last meeting was in November, 2 future meetings were cancelled without any explanation. Like our education is a joke to them. We need to register our displeasure and we need to do it now! anybody that wants to wait till january should join us then, we aren't waiting for you. 6 Likes |
Computers / Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by Donpre(m): 10:43pm On Dec 15, 2020 |
Hello guys, my PC refuses to charge past 79%, I've left it charging for hours and it refuses to bulge. Did some googling and according to HP forums and their diagnostics software, I need to calibrate it. The steps for calibration requires that I charge to 99-100, completely discharge and recharge till 99-100 The problem now is that how can I calibrate it when it refuses to fully charge? |

Iboyx:I don't know which courses are under life sciences, but I know most universities prefer those from basic health sciences, hence I would advise the UTME route if you don't want to end up wasting a year at home chasing D.E... Not sure if there are rules against D.E and UTME simultaneously but if there aren't, do take on both to be safe As regards the age, I would say you're even too young to be asking this question. I know coursemates who stayed at home writing jamb till they were 20-23, and they started in year 1, that's aside the coursemates who are above 25 and some in their 30s. Trust you'll always meet those way older than you are in med school and also those who got it just after their 16th birthday. I'm saying, forget age here especially if you're as young as you are. You should be less bothered about the strikes, for all we know, this could the last one for a long time or one of many, its impossible to plan around this things. The only choice is going to a private or foreign university, if you can't afford that then you just have to live with the strikes Like someone once said, whether or not you take action now, you'll grow older anyway, its better you do that chasing your dream. Good luck in your journey 17 Likes |

Programming / Re: How I Recommend A Newbie Goes About Learning Web Development. by Donpre(m): 6:52pm On Dec 10, 2020 |
Nice insights but I don't think developing for those niches would be easy for a new developer who can't navigate documentations written for experienced developers Most of the newbies rely on videos and books and apps like sololearn that basically spoon-feeds them programming. Throw them into python's documentation alone and see them abandon programming. Also a newbie developer without a job/gigs to pay bills, spending months or even years developing for a specify niche whose payout isn't sure is terrible advice in my opinion. The whole niche-ing down is something only an experienced developer can do #MyOpinionThough 15 Likes |
Programming / Re: Should One Learn Programming For The Sole Aim Of Making Money? by Donpre(m): 12:36pm On Dec 09, 2020 |
Do it for whatever reason you want to do. It doesn't matter For money? For passion? its all the same to many-faced god However it isn't a get-rich-quick scheme. Its hard work, lots of hard work, studying, tutorials, documentation, experimenting... some times your code just don't work and you don't know why, very frustrating. Its not an easy road and before you start getting paid, it'll take months, if not up to a year as competition is steadily rising. In fact if you're not good enough to impress people with your work, you won't ever get paid. Aside all the pessimism above, it is very rewarding. 67 Likes 5 Shares |

Tarvel: You have a problem-solving skills problem not a programming one. Basically a calculator is just input and calculation. Can you get input from the user?... Yes Can you calculate an expression?... Yes Can you get an input calculated?... Calculator. It works by breaking down large problems into very smaller ones and building up from what you can do to what you need to do. You need to get books on how to solve problems. Some I have are "Think like a Programmer", "Classic computer science problems in python"... I haven't even read them yet but they might help you get into the process of breaking down large problems. Ultimately, you just need to build more and attempt more problems, we learn by experience. Even apprentice carpenters get confused on how massive roofs are made but by making them or watching them being made, he learns. Watching tutorial to do it is very good, but not learning how they are doing it is an error on your part. It not about the "if the works", but about "How does it work and can I do it myself next time" Good luck! |

Tarvel:So your problem is not that you don't know these things but don't know how to apply them in solving problems? |
Programming / Re: I Seriously Need Help by Donpre(m): 3:06am On Dec 08, 2020 |
Tarvel:What exactly did you learn those 4 times? Like list the things Did the book you used give you exercises and did you do them? What can you say "I definitely Know this" and what will you say "I've read this before but can't remember how it works" Give answers to the above question then maybe we'll find out what you're doing wrong |

Programming / Re: Someone Please Explain Backend To Me by Donpre(m): 1:02am On Dec 02, 2020 |
KingTayo37:Since you're learning python, then Django or Flask or FastAPI They're all good, google will give you their websites, they have ton of videos on youtube, pick one and happy debugging. You can also use java for the backend with springboot. Like i said, there are tons of backend languages and you're learning 2 of them. So which ever you feel comfortable with, simply pick one of their web framework and build your backend with it. Good luck 1 Like |

KingTayo37:These frameworks are based on languages and require some intermediate proficiency in the languages. So which programming language do you know well and what exactly are you trying to do? |

KingTayo37:Yeah they are all have websites with installation guides and Documentation on how to use them. |

KingTayo37:You know how you need travel from one place to another, you don't go building a car from scratch but instead just buy one and all you need is to learn how to drive it?..... That's basically the concept of frameworks. It contains codes that do specific things for you, you just need to learn how to use it. So instead of doing a lot of work yourself, you just use a framework the way you want to and get things done way way faster. 1 Like |
Programming / Re: Is Django Okay To Get A Web Developer Job Or Use For Freelancing? by Donpre(m): 1:13pm On Dec 01, 2020 |
Django is a great framework but its not popular in Nigeria. Learn php or nodejs(express). Thats what people fight about these days. Any one of them will get your jobs in Nigeria, however popular consensus says php will get you more jobs 4 Likes |
Programming / Re: Someone Please Explain Backend To Me by Donpre(m): 1:10pm On Dec 01, 2020 |
If you're a beginner, focus on learning basic programming concepts instead of confusing yourself with backend or frontend. All that wouldn't matter if you can do loops, conditional statement, methods or classes. To answer your question, backend is code that runs on a server and integrates the frontend with a database amongst many other things the backend does. For backend languages, there are a ton of them each with a ton of frameworks. So again learn programming first, all the backend languages are basically the same with a slight difference in syntax. Also python is one the many backend languages. 1 Like |

Programming / Re: Pls Tech Gurus..i Dont Understand What Apis Mean In Javascript.. Help! by Donpre(m): 8:58pm On Nov 22, 2020 |
Firstly APIs is a general programming, in fact computer science concept. Imagine a tv and remote, you don't change channels by loosing the board and manipulating transitors, you press the remote and the TV does something. The remote is the API, it gives you access to get, modify or delete channels in the TV, you don't know how it does this, you just know that the delete button on the remote(API) deletes whichever channel you call So you interact with the API, and not the server directly. IN JS(the web in general as web apis can be written in any backend language) you get a series of links, which might take data. Calling these links will do something for example: website/get-all-books.... would give you all the books in the database(usually in JSON for REST API) website/delete-book/id=1.... would delete the book with id=1 the mechanism that deletes or fetches the book is hidden within the server serving the apis, you don't know how that works, you just know it does what you want it to do This is a simplified explanation, do read up more advanced explanations 2 Likes |
