Hi Promisedeco

If you want to be a software developer, you need to be FLEXIBLE.
You should be willing to learn other languages as the project you are to work on requires.

You should also consider yourself lucky to be given an opportunity to learn Flutter/Dart. Flutter is a framework built by Google to help you build for mobile (iOS and Android) and web with one codebase.
It's one of the "hottest" stuffs to learn right now and people are constantly sourcing for ways to learn it. You doing it for 6 months during IT is a big thing.

I would advice you open your mind to it, and learn it. It is also easy and fast to pick up so you should be fine.
You can follow Flutter developers on Twitter and see their insights from time to time (you can send a DM in this regards).

Don't worry, it's not a waste of your money considering you're interested in software development.
I also don't understand what you mean by wasting your money, can you be a little clearer? Are you paying for IT?

Good luck
thanks for the reply. and yes I paid. Csc students usually pay

ProgrammingRe: Avoid The Hard Ways Of Learning Programming by promisedeco(m): 1:06pm On Jul 17, 2019

Avoid the hard ways of learning programming

I have created a tutorial group, those who are new to programming can decide to join the group, the tutorial will be done through Zoom app which allows computer to computer, phone to phone or computer to phone screen sharing. That will reduce the data usage considerably compared to videos. If you are interested send me WhatsApp message

There is always a first time and a beginner in anything, programming is not an exception.
When one starts programming it is normal to feel inferior, because of how unworkable everything
will look like. You may even think that programming is not for people like you but for the fortunate minorities, but believe me you will overcome it if you just try a little more. The feeling of frustration and inferior is normal, even the great programmers once felt that way.
But the greatest obstacle to learning programming is starting programming in a wrong way.
Starting programming in a wrong is the biggest obstacle that can
hinder a beginner from getting to the level of professional programmer. It can cripple the entire years you spend
on programming and turn you into a laughing stock of your working colleagues.
I have put together what beginners should avoid:

(1) Avoid skipping the very basics:

There is always a first step in a 1000 km journey, take the first step by learning the basics. No one can learn a foreign
language by reading classical novel, to learn a foreign language you need to start from the alphabet and start using pictures
to represent nouns, then to the language rules and sentence construction. Later on you will be able to read children novels
and then finally any novels or newspaper. As you can see there is always a learning process in everything, programming also works
that way.

(2) Look before you leap!:

As the old saying goes, "look before you leap". Programming is not for lazy and procrastinating people, you must be ready to sacrifice
all the time you have if you want to learn programming. It needs almost 100% of your time. Yes you heard right, to learn how
to program you must be ready to sacrifice all the time you have especially in the first few years. You must be a husband
or wife of your computer. As a beginner it may take you a full day to solve one simple programming problem. Again this is
normal, later on you will be to solve such problems within few minutes. Ask yourself "Am I ready to learn programming?"
If your answer is Yes and you are determined and passionate about it, go ahead and pursue it. The road may be dark initially
but believe me it will be bright and rewarding later in your life.

(3) Don't join the web queue!:

This might sound absurd, it is true. Never start programming by jumping into web applications or/and databases without learning the basics first unless it is part of the curriculum of the boot camp, in case
you are taking programming course from a boot-camp. Most of the time boot camps initially introduce web to motivate the participants. When
the participants see how what they write is transformed into a web page, they always feel happy and motivated. That is not even necessary because you have to motivate yourself. But apart from that,
there is absolutely no reason to start programming with web applications.
Those who call themselves web developers are the worst programmers I have
met so far. They don't know anything about algorithm and data structure, don't join them. Web application is actually a good choice
but before you embark on it be sure you have learnt how to program first, unless if you never intend to be a professional
in it.
If you doubt me gather web people together (don't allow them go to internet) and ask them series of algorithmic questions,
80% of them will fail woefully.
Those who don't fail the questions are actually those who learn how to program before going to web.
It is a known fact that web people fear algorithms more than they fear devil,
and that is the reason they know all the frameworks
in the world jumping from one framework to another, always looking for more and a better framework to leverage any algorithmic task but no
one will become a real professional like that.

Starting to program with web applications or/and databases
is just as incorrect as studying up a foreign language from
some classical novel rather than from the alphabet and a
textbook for beginners. It is not impossible, but if you lack
the basics, it is much more difficult. It is highly-probable that
you would end up lacking vital fundamental knowledge and
being the laughing-stock of your colleagues/peers


(4) Focus on algorithm and data structure:

Check the questions asked by tech companies, you will agree with me that they are looking for programmers who have a sound understanding of algorithm and data
structure. Even if you set up a firm or company, will you not also look for people who understand algorithm and data structure well?
When beginners learn to think algorithmically, and then learn to divide a problem
instinctively into a series of steps to solve it, as well as when they learn to
select the appropriate data structures and write high-quality programming
code that is when they become programmers. Once you acquire these skills,
you can easily learn new languages and various technologies – like Web
programming, HTML5 and JavaScript, mobile development, databases and
SQL, XML, REST, ASP.NET, Java EE, Python, Ruby and hundreds more.

5 Now go from learning to real world application
Now that you have acquired the basic skills of writing codes, it is now possible to take your learning to the next level by applying what you
have learnt so far. You can start working on your personal project or start looking or a job opportunity. Whatever the be the case, just pursue your dreams with passion!

alexis:
As programmers, I think you should know a bit about everything.

Personally, I love python; it's a sweet language, straightforward, you can produce with it is one of the best when prototyping.
I have also tried erlang mainly because of concurrent programming, it looks good.
For me, I look at java as a platform than a programming language - there are new languages that rides on top of the JVM, these languages allows you to express yourself in ways java will not i.e. scala.
I still fancy my C and plain old PHP, I love you guys
Then there is ruby

These are just my views anyways but go to russia and ask some coder there and he will tell you that "assembly language is the best", lol.
sir, how did you manage to learn all those languages.. plss put me through I want to be very good

Good afternoon good nairaland senior programmers. I am currently running my IT .In one startup firm like that.

I want to be a software developer as I am very interested in java...but the problem and confusion I have now is that we are not going to do java... but rather mobile development using FLUTTER AND DART in Android studio IDE.

I was panicked at first but had to convince my self that I can learn it(java)on my own and still flow with the class...

But as it is now, the first 2 classes ended in confusion as the instructor couldn't hold it down and we ended up going home not achieving anything concrete.

The lack of progress in this first few days of the class coupled with the fact that the FLUTTER AND DART are relatively unknown is making me restless...

My biggest fear is wasting my money and most importantly wasting my whole 6 months without being content.

I have already paid half the payment. Plss, I need your candid advice Biko. My head is processing a lot of things right now. Your advice can help a soul. Thank you

bayelsaowei:
youre wrong.. it is like you forget ronaldo played with the likes of isco, modric, kroos, bale, casemiro, et al.. who gets to play with such sensational cluster of midfielders?? Lets not forget the di maria effect when they first won the CL against athletico madrid.

Check that madrid team and see how they succeeded playing together.. see how bale scored two goals in the uefa CL finals last year for madrid and for ronaldo to clinch a 5th CL title. When last did messi ever get such support from his team mates either in barca or argentina.. ??

As for the argentine coach that guy is such a failure..
Your analysis is bias... You keep talking about Madrid, how about you talk about PORTUGAL
