Okay, so you’ve finished building your website. Now it's time to let people and Google know about it. I recommend you let Google know first and here's how: 1. Create A SiteMap A sitemap(xml file) tells Google and other search engines what pages, posts and other content you have on your website. It helps them find all your content and index it faster. 2. Submit Your Website Submit your website to Google Search Console formerly Webmaster Tools, via the “Add Property” button to let them know it exists. Extra points for adding it to Bing Webmaster Tools. 3. Submit The SiteMap The Sitemap (xml file) you created in step 1 should now be submitted to search engines so they know what pages and posts are on your website now and in the future. 4. Bonus Points There are a couple other things you could do to improve your website. Make sure you have analytics (probably Google) and submit both versions of your site to Webmaster Tools(www and non-www). Set the preferred version afterwards.

Like all other famous gadgets, your iPhone has its own secrets. Read on and we’ll inform you about a series of hidden codes that unveil secret actions. These short codes will either uncover hidden menus or act as direct commands. They provide additional information about your device and tweak current settings. Some settings can be also modified from your traditional iOS Settings app. However, if you wish to be one step a head and impress your friends with your superior iPhone knowledge, read on and get the most important secret codes available for your iOS device. Do note, that some tricks might not work with all carriers. It depends on the features made available by each telecommunication company. These secret codes are combinations of numbers and the *(asterisk) and # (number sign) symbols. They are used with the help of your iPhone’s dial pad. Simply open the Phone app and tap on keypad. Now, input one of the available codes. Depending on the type of the combination, you’ll have to press the green call button or not. Some short codes like the one used for displaying your iPhone’s IMEI for example, will automatically run without needing the Call confirmation. This depends if the combination addresses a carrier setting or your own device. Code: *#31# Feature: Block your number. Code: #31#Phone number + call Feature: block number for call. Code: *#06# then press call. Feature: Get your IMEI number. Code: *3001#12344# Feature: Get a more precise signal strength. Code: *#21# Feature: Decline calls without them knowing. Code: *#43# Feature: Turn on/off call waiting. Code: *646# Feature: Check how many minutes you’ve used. Code: *225# Feature: Check the balance of your plan.

Coders have a storied tradition of baking in secret passageways (or sometimes, just fun little Easter eggs) that can only be accessed by inputting a special "key." And so that tradition continues in the mobile age. Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD)—sometimes known as "quick codes" or "feature codes"—is an extra-UI protocol, which allows people to access hidden features. This protocol was originally created for GSM phones, but can be found on CDMA devices as well (if that's a bunch of acronym gibberish to you, here's a quick primer). These publicly available backchannels allow users to directly communicate with their service provider's computers and/or access back-end features in their device. They are accessed by inputting them into the phone's dialer (the screen you use to start a phone call) and usually begin and end with the * or # keys with a sequence of numbers in between (there's close-to-zero chance that anyone would accidentally access them). They're not terribly practical. Most people don't really need to know how their local cell towers are performing or what their IMEI number is (more on that later). Still, it can be fun to play around and see what unexpected functionality your phone is hiding beneath the surface. We would LOVE to provide you with a comprehensive list of the dozens of codes out there, but note that these codes seldom work across different carriers, OSes, or phone models (or even on generations of the same model). If you really want to try them out, your best bet may be to Google your phone's make and carrier + "USSD" for a tailored, comprehensive list. I attempted a number of codes using an iPhone SE in addition to HTC One Mini and a Galaxy S5 and Galaxy S7 Edge. Some of them worked! Check out the list below. Good luck and have fun! Code: *#*#4636#*#* Feature: About phone. Code: *#*#7780#*#* Feature: Restore factory settings. Code: *2767*3855# Feature: Reinstall phones firmware. Code: *#*#34971539#*#* Feature: About camera.

lizzlix:no you shouldnt need Internet to preview JS, a good browser is fine. Installing sublime is easy, read through the installation instructions too. |
lizzlix:You need a text editor, browser and resources. I mentioned this book in my post JavaScript: The Good Parts by Douglas Crockford, go look for it. It's a good book. Sublime3 is a good text editor @ocelot2006. Plenty text editors out there, you can start with notepad. Offline/online isn't an issue. You can study and practice at www.w3schools.com. |

Ever wondered how your bank, the Internet, ATM machines validate your cards? Well, it's not rocket science. It's pretty basic and now let me explain with an example. Example Card Number: 4417 1234 5678 9113 The First Digit: this is the Major Industry Identifier. It designates the category of entity which issued the card. • 1 & 2 are Airlines • 3 is Travel and Entertainment • 4 & 5 are Banking and Financial • 6 is Merchandising and Banking • 7 is Petroleum • 8 is Telecommunication • 9 is a National assignment The First Six Digits: these are the Issuer Identification Number. It will identify the institution that issued the card. Visa: 4xxxxx MasterCard: 51xxxx – 55xxxx Discover: 6011xx, 644xxx, 65xxxx Amex: 34xxxx, 37xxxx Cards can be looked up by their IIN. A card that starts with 376211 is a Singapore Airline Krisflyer American Express Gold Card. 529962 designates a pre-paid Much-Music MasterCard. The Seventh & Following Digits: excluding the final digit, these are the persons account number. This leaves a trillion possible combinations. The Final Digit: this is the check digit or checksum. It is used to validate the credit card number using the Luhn algorithm https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luhn_algorithm . How To Validate A Credit Card With Your Mind • Take the credit card number(let's use the example above). 4417 1234 5678 9113 • Double every other digit from the right. (4x2)4(1x2)7 (1x2)2(3x2)4 (5x2)6(7x2)8 (9x2)1(1x2)3 • Add these to the undoubled digits 8+4+2+7 + 2+2+6+4 + 1+0+6+1+4+8 + 1+8+1+2+3 = 70 • If the final sum is divisible by 10, then the credit card number is valid. If it's not divisible by 10, the number is invalid or fake. Try it and see. |

kennyjam:Cool ![]() |
greatface:Not necessarily, our brains adapts quite faster than we think. And asking people for help isn't a bad idea to start with. @kennyjam do what gets you solutions faster and if u need to ask questions then ask, I will make time to answer. Cheers |
kennyjam:Python is easy, web development languages (html,css,php,mysql etc) are easy & other languages too. Research&decide on a path/language to learn & i can give you suggestions on what to install, where to get it and how to start programming. Cheers. |
amadgreat:Just start. You can pick HTML as your starting point because you can practice it on pc and mobile phone, online and offline. There are cool HTML coding apps you can download on your phone to help you practice and you can also practice at w3schools.com anytime and anywhere. Consistently practicing will get you there. Thanks. |
greatface:Nice. |
Nosainwe:Python is robust. It can be used to build web apps, mobile apps, desktop apps & games. My cousin who's based in USA can only code in python & I mean it, he doesn't know any other language. He has a cool job with a gaming company & collects 6 figures annually. There are companies looking for good programmers in Nigeria as well bro. |
iyamchee:At least you doing something, keep it up. In my opinion I think you should decide on a language & try to build something people can use and give you feedback. This will keep you focused on one task & 1 language |
Alphaman007:Exactly! Keep trying. If you do something long enough it will become routine & your brain would do it on auto-pilot. You'll be surprised the day you wake up & it feels like you understand all these code, but it will only happen because you kept trying. |
Nosainwe:With python, the possibilities are endless. And most organizations are looking for good python coders. It's worth learning. |
Nosainwe:Keep it up bro. I learnt HTML from www.w3schools.com and it was the first programming or scripting language I ever learnt. Good job |
DjAndroid:Here's a link to the first PDF on my Dropbox https://www.dropbox.com/s/btk52k8pm716o6v/hfcsharp_free_book.pdf?dl=0 I'll upload the second and share during the day. Cheers � |
DjAndroid:Start C# right away, it's worth it & you'll enjoy it. You can even build cool apps and games that run on your windows 8 or 10 OS. don't beat around the bush. Here are 2 good pdfs resources to guide you. Let me know if you need them & I can share with you via Dropbox.
|
DjAndroid:Moderate to difficult & if you already know Java, c or c++ you should find c# easy. I code c# with Visual Studio 2015 & thanks to MVC (model-view-controller) Framework, a lot of the codes have been pre-written. |
A lot people have this idea that writing computer code is complex, confusing and hard to understand, but so is a lot of things in this life. Only with much learning and practice do things become easy for us. You can teach yourself how to code and I recommend you start one language at a time and you practice consistently. I began coding in summer 2010; I had just completed 100 level from a Ajayi Crowther University and was on that sweet long break. Although I had failed 2 courses that 100 level and needed to attend summer to re-sit the courses, I stayed at home and fell in love with programming. By the end of the summer break I had taught myself HTML, CSS, PHP and MySQL. When I resumed school 200 level I created a website similar to Olx from scratch solely for my school (www.droparena.com)– one of my failed entrepreneurial exploits. Now I major in C#, HTML, PHP & SQL. Although I can code in python, php, JavaScript, java, C#, HTML. I don't remember every syntax for these languages but I understand them I.e if you were to wake me up at midnight and ask me to write this: One = int(input("Type a number between 1 and 10: " )) Two = int(input("Type a number between 1 and 10: " )) if (One >= 1) and (One <= 10 ) : if (Two >= 1) and (Two <= 10 ) : print("Your secret number is: ", One * Two) else: print("Incorrect second value!" ) else: print("Incorrect first value!" ) It would be difficult but if you ask me to explain it; piece of cake. It's a conditional statement in Python that makes use of multiple ‘if or else statements’. One & Two are variables gotten from users input. The 1st If checks that One is a number between 1 & 10. If One meets this criteria, the program proceeds to the 2nd If which also checks that Two is a number between 1 & 10. If One & Two match both conditions stated then the program multiplies One and Two, then outputs the result. Else if One or Two don't match the conditions stated then the program outputs either “incorrect first value!” or “incorrect second value!”. Learning starts with interest, you have to fall in love with writing computer programs because without interest, it's hard to pay attention. You don't need to memorize every syntax of every language. You can start with practicing and understanding one language. Below are a couple programming languages you can start with and resources to help you. Languages Python – Multipurpose programming language that emphasizes readability and is used by Facebook, Google and YouTube. Difficulty: Easy. Ruby – A high level programming language that is used with Ruby on Rails Framework to develop web applications. Difficulty: Fairly Easy JavaScript – Programming language for making web pages and websites alongside HTML/CSS – most popular language. Difficulty: Fairly Easy Java – General purpose and cross platform programming language. Originally called Oak, name after a tree outside it's inventors window (James Gosling). Difficulty: Moderate C/C++ - Programming language used for system and application software. C++ was originally an extension of C and is commonly used for gaming development. Difficulty: Moderate to Difficult Websites Where You Can Learn To Code Codecademy: most popular free platform for learning code with 24+ million users. Free. www.codecademy.com Treehouse: has ‘tracks’ to help guide you towards the right coding path for the right job. Has 100,000+ active users. 14 days free trial then £16 a month. www.teamtreehouse.com Udemy: offers experts the chance to upload their courses for a tuition fee or for free. 7 million+ users enrolled. Fees vary. www.udemy.com Codeschool: uses screencasts and interactive exercises. Boasts of 1 million+ enrolled users. £19 a month. www.codeschool.com Must Reads These resources are good for learning the basics through to intermediate levels with video tutorials and helpful forums. Code specific books can help you with a particular language once you have started but reading has its limit. You won't find out if you enjoy programming until you start practicing yourself. You can start with an easy language like python. • Learn Python the Hard Way by Zed A Shaw • JavaScript: The Good Parts by Douglas Crockford • The C++ programming language by Bjarne Stroustrup • PHP and MySQL for Dummies by Janet Valade Essential Bookmarks These websites can provide you a network of support from the programming community if you have any questions to ask. You can also use GitHub as a source of inspiration by learning from other programmer’s coding as well as gaining your own experience working on open source projects. • GitHub www.github.com • StackOverflow www.stackoverflow.com • StackExchange www.stackexchange.com • Quora www.quora.com Thanks for reading and don't hesitate to leave questions.
