Maskyy:
someone should check out this my js code. ERROR: instead of 3 iteration output, it output 9 iterations. just bordering me since.


let z = [
{id : 1 , age : 20},
{id : 2 , age : 15},
{id : 3 , age : 30}
]

let Obj = {
oder1:{
id : 1,
name : 'Ben',
club : 'chelsea',
food : 'pie',
stat : 500
},
oder2:{
id : 4,
name : 'Bolu',
club : 'ManU',
food : 'saws',
stat : 700
},

oder3:{
id : 2,
name : 'Julie',
club : 'ManU',
food : 'saws',
stat : 700
}

}

z.filter(value => {
for (const key in Obj) {
if (Obj.hasOwnProperty(key)) {
const element = Obj[key];
value.id===element.id ? console.log(`hi ${element.name}. Id is correct`) : console.log(`invalid Id ${!String()}`);
}
}});

Your use of filter seems wrong here, as the name implies , it is used to filter out items in an areay that meet a specific condition.

The reason you are getting 9 iterations is because the filter iterates thrice and also the for i
Loop inside the filter iterates thrice.

3x3 = 9.

Let me know if you have other ?s

1. Visit learnpython dot org and start with the basics--- start with HTML, CSS & bootstrap then move to Python and Ruby. You can also checkout freecodecamp dot org.

2. Use Youtube tutorials for visuals; Search for "learn python/HTML/CSS full course for beginners" any of the languages you want to learn...You can also check out & subscribe to Freecodecamp youtube channel

3. Sign up on meetup dot com...And select your city of residence. You will join over 5,000 Nigerians who are learning how to code with different bootcamps and learning events organised throughout the year.

4. Immerse yourself in this daily for 8 months...Then apply for Andela's learner or volunteer programs next year April/May

5. If you don't get the opportunity to join Andela, there will be other doors that will open for you (One of the pros of been a programmer)

6. Give yourself this time next year, you will be a self taught programming guru (You need atleast 11 months of intense self learning to be ready to take on very tasking jobs)

7. You will be spoilt for choice of jobs, no matter how little for a start (freelance, remote, contract or salary)...That's a guarantee


God bless you for this comment of yours

You're supposed to assume the number to be prime initially, with isPrime = true.
Then inside the if statement, if a factor is found, you set isPrime to false.


What efficiency does it bring by doing it your way?


Did you run the code and it produced a wrong answer?

I never ran it anyway, I typed with my phone, but that code doesn't have a bug!

A faster way is to use Math.floor(Math.sqrt(x))


It doesn't make it faster
Re: What Made You Pick Interest In Programming by PrinceCEE(m): 12:06pm On Jan 14, 2020
Red2C:
Also, the initial value of i cannot be 1, as any number % 1 = 0. This means no number will pass the test. Therefore, i should be initialized to 2 at the start of the loop.


Yeah! This is a bug... I never run the code.

The current time complexity is O(n), by taking the square root the time complexity becomes O(n^0.5) which is faster.

Hello, what sites can I get code templates?
Maskyy:
Wow lots of aspirer programmers and experience ones... I "hello world" you all.

Following the trend from the start till now, have been reading some comments on *YouTube* video as a form of learning for beginners. Nope, this is not right. Don't learn from YouTube, you will hardly see the mistake, which is part of the code learning, sometimes called BUGS.

As a beginner in programming, learn by theory. I repeat it, learn by theory. Read that book until you fall and rise from that mistake, and later you'll understand the "why's" and "how's" of the code.

To all my boss here, Am a software developer, front end precisely. ******No details*****

You love web right, start from here......

1. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/ (start from HTML, CSS , JavaScript...... At this point you can choose your part yourself)

2. **Google search w3school site( cool for everyone and there explanations are superb)

3. Open a github account and Try to understand how github work for a start. Not hard at all but leave it aside if you don't get it easily. That will be later.

4. Get yourself a codepen account. (If you don't know what to do with, leave it aside, later on you will).

5. Get yourself a LinkedIn account if you can. Start building your portfolio from the start. Don't leave it aside. Get use to the network. It's not a social network like fb, instag, its a professional platform.

6. After few training, register with codewar.... Learn by coding. You must code. Yes you must for a better understanding.

7. Freecodecamp is nice. Check it. It may work for you.

Yap... I will recommend these books...
1. Jon duckett HTML and CSS
2. Jon duckett JavaScript and jquery.
3. Eloquent JavaScript (new edition)

Pls afford a premium lesson, either online or offline. There's a greater merit in having a strong tutor.

Also join platform and community that talk about what you do. Either on fb or elsewhere. Try to get to those better than you.

You can find some free books on pdfdrive site (I wish to have such an online library too)

What else friends... Pls feel free to work with templates. Download lots of free templates and check there codes. With that you will learn more.

This should be the first, I don't why I place it here... Algorithm, data structure (some said it's a compt. Science school package. Whatever for non compt. Scie., get books online and understand the little you can at least for a start).

To end the whole talk... Once you embark on this journey, you won't stop learning ooooo. Maybe until you have something to rest on (not deaths but rich enjoyment i.e money$$$). Don't worry, there's too much money in the industry....

If you can trust your ability apply for Andela code competition or internship.

Also apply for site like codewar monthly competition.

Again, I greet all my Seniors here.

I want to learn programming.
Please what kind of laptop should I get?
Re: What Made You Pick Interest In Programming by Nobody: 12:12pm On Jan 30, 2020
PrinceCEE:



Lol...

Truth is, not everybody needs mathematics to be better programmers, but when you want to take programming to a whole new level, then you'd be needing mathematics and algorithms.

For prime numbers, you'll have to iterate through the numbers less than or equal to half the number, and check if they divide the number.

So, Using javascript

let isPrime = false;
let num = x; //choose the number yourself
for(let i = 1; i < Math.floor(x/2); i++) { //you can still use parseInt(x/2), it casts it to an integer
if(x % i == 0) {
isPrime = true;
break;
}
}


You can try and run this code. I didn't run it, 'cause I just typed with my phone.
God frigging damn it I read the challenge as "odd" number not prime. Feel so stupid *facepalm*

Funny thing is my first language of competence was and still is Pascal. Learnt Pascal just when OOP was about to become the defacto programming mindset

I remember walking into the final exam from CSC108 (Programming I) straight from a nightclub and still made an A

Shout out to then Dr Katerina Papanicolaou who taught me Programming I and Mr Koufopavlou who taught Programming II and Data Structures. Best experience ever

Hello, Nigeria friends,
My name is Alex Yang from an IT company based in Beijing, China. We are developing an Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) program. ASR is technology that converts spoken words into text. For your more specific understanding, we are developing a Hausa language recognition program. Hausa is the largest ethnic group in Nigeria and Hausa is a beautiful language. I hope that Hausa friends are delighted to hear this news. Imagine one day in the future you hold a conversation with a foreigner, say Chines, in your proudly Hausa Language, but through ASR technology we can understand your Hausa language. At present, we are taking voice and text samples for our program. We need record voice samples from 150 Hausa native speakers. We also need Hausa language specialist to proof the Hausa text and voice recording. We will pay appropriate fee for your work.
If you are interested in our program, for more information please contact me via wechat app. My wechat ID is 909701941 or email me at 909701941@qq.com.
Thanks
