Lo.

oh.

Lol

BlueAir:
Smh. Like a returnee said to me just today, you're just a citizen on paper. Some of us know better than all these kinds of ignorant flaunting

Yeah, just like natural born American, that kind of ordinary ... huh.

If the whole people that works in the presidency still enjoys God's blessings or mercy in any way, then there's no justice in heaven.

I was in efcc 3 weeks ago and what I witnessed dashed my last hope judicial system and Nigeria.

That's why each time I see bbqmanna say their usual stuff, I feel like to cry for them. But, perhaps these guys don't go out of their office/shop.

You mind sharing ??

Very well.

It was this guy that accused the company of propping up jihadist terror group.

BS.

No wonder they've been on one spot for decades.

A toothless bingo is what Nigeria is. Imagine the effrontery!
There was a country

Ur Profile Message ,what does it implies ??

Eh

iLeggend you are needed here, Lol.

oh.

hmm

Ok.

What is ur motivation of learning how to code.

Imagine for a minute you've acquired the programming skill, what did you imagine yourself doing with the skill ?? data analysis, web development, embedded systems, scientific computing, mobile app development, etc.

Having a strong why will help you figure out alot of stuff quickly and help you in the long run.

I wouldn't call it effortless per se, When i started with html and css, i was having problem remembering syntaxes (especially css) and also couldn't fully understand how and why some things work the way they do. Then some senior developers pointed out that's it's ok to forget syntaxes and it's actually common, you just have to make Google your friend. As long as you know what you want to do and the general concept of it, you can just google it and get how to do it. But you wouldn't even have the problem of remembering syntaxes if you don't work on projects, hence the need for that.

So I kept working on projects, there are a couple of websites that give out coding challenges so I did that and completed most of those challenges, I noticed the more challenges I completed, the lesser the occurrence of me visiting google for a forgotten syntax.

Now I'm learning JavaScript and it has been fun all the while with a couple of hiccups here and there, but the struggle continues

Good for you, as long as you are making good progress. enjoy it.

Na BBN be the probs, we are ok with poverty and famine - .

KushLyon:
Something like that. At first i didn't know there were different fields under programming and i just thought learning one language will teach you everything about programming from top to bottom, it was later i discovered there are different fields (web, app, data science, machine learning and so on) and also different tools that is well suited for each of those fields.

Lol, howzit now.

Effortless right ??

KushLyon:
Exactly, I didn't have a concrete plan when i started and i was just "testing the waters" when i picked python and i just flowed with it. Then i saw a post on nairaland by tensazangetsu20 detailing the path to be taken by someone new to programming. That was how i got the roadmap to follow and was properly introduced into web development

I just remebered i came across programming a couple of years back and i dived head-first into C++ No basic knowledge or anything, just dived into it and kept on swimming against the current until i gave up. It was really brutal

Lol.

So it safe to say you knew what you wanted to do but don't know how, right ??

@ bolded is hilarious - no proper orientation i guess.

KushLyon:
I'm still on a learning path and i'm at javascript at the moment, i'm taking it slow and steady. I got into programming 5 months ago starting with python (wrong move on my part) but i left it after some advice i got on nairaland, then i went back to the basics with html and css, now javascript

P.S: I'm in the web development field

K, let me guess - you don't know what you wanted to do (concrete plan) before learning Python or how did you end up learning it & i also hope you've figure out ur roadmap now

KushLyon:
Many people have this same set of problems including me. I'm not sure i'm the right person to give you an advice, seeing as i don't use python (i learnt it for a bit then ditched it to follow another path) but you can overcome this problem by working on personal projects. The more projects you do, the more efficient you become and you will spend less time completing a project as time goes on. You seem to be on the right path, just keep working on projects to sharpen your skills, with time you won't be having issues like this

So what do you work with now, i mean your toolkit and what problems are u solving??

Zoharariel:
If not for the Quota System, this brain-dead nepotistic bastard, like the 99% others in the North, would be selling Suya or riding Okada somewhere in Lagos or Onitsha.

Imagine an acclaimed “Senior Advocate of Nigeria” comparing open grazing of cows with spare parts dealers; is that one a genuine Lawyer?

I mean, does that one sound or look like someone that graduated from the Law School to you?

It will never be well with all Southern Leaders & their entire generations for selling us out cheaply to these uncircumcised animals.

This one Attorney General of the Federation?

Slaves & servants riding on horses while princes are walking as servants in this stupid & useless entity called Nigeria.

This Country will surely burn to ashes one inevitable day and everybody will reclaim their rightful spot.

Thermodynamics:
Struggling to learn Python

Really where are you having problem??

It is syntax comprehension or productivity issues like focus, motivation, etc.

Where ?? provide more context.

debt, Lol.

pocohantas:
Shebi na that Enekwechi sister talk say Naija women get potbelly without giving birth?

E still no win. Took 12th or so. Naija witches came through. Courtesy; his sister.

Lol.

The sister words struck nerves.

Thermodynamics:
Haven't been easy man, I'm still struggling to learn how to code.

Omor, life after School for Nigeria nor be joke oh.

What the problem dude ??

Lemme park here.

stanliwise:
The reality of things is that going for computer science so you could easily learn how to program is just almost same story as a person in engineering or any courses. Computer science is way larger than programming and many courses you do especially in your first two years are majorly pure mathematics and basic programming. The information overload and time to read maths theory wouldn’t give ample of time to learn how to code properly.

Meanwhile the next two years is majorly studying about Data structures, algorithms, OS, processes, machine learning and some theoretical computer science courses. Including ICT problems and projects.
One has basically few moments to relate learning how to code properly.

The only advantage a CS student has from all other science students is the ability to understand concept faster due to background,
But this barely has too many advantages as this advantage shows their head in large and complex systems with complex algorithms and data structure which a CS student has been trained to handle

CS student trained to handle ??

How did you think CS is being taught in Nigeria University ??, Lol.

You better off learning those concepts on edx, MIT ocw and other online resources than Institutions where if you are well grounded you might feel you are more knowledgeable than the folks teaching you.

Whoever Uncle Sam wants she is getting but i don't think he is that important to em.

Lol.

If they are completely oblivious that their high priced personnel is a fraud until the Feds were asking for him, why the hell are they grilling him. Save yourself the stress and send him to where is needed.

Imagine if it were ordinary Nigerians that accuse the guy of impropriety it will never be taken seriously.

failed state.

Henryjr:
They told you that, and you believed it. Once upon a time, only Japan was counted as an industrialized country in the whole of Asia, but today even your America sees China as a threat to their dominance. America climbed this height only after the world war 2. What makes you think Nigeria can be great someday?

Lol, don't start something you won't finish abeg.

Henryjr:
African mentality, always of the mindset that the west is superior. the wire fraud we all talk about today, was it started in nigeria or in the western world? until we start seeing ourselves as a great people, we will always be slave to them. was it not in America, a police man killed Floyd? you guys are amazing

Dimwit, how is the west not ur superior... where should that start to begin with.

A state in the US has an economy bigger than that of over 50 countries in Africa, choke on that.

The so called west can decide to make life difficult for black man today, Mr. they are your superior and that will be till the end of time.
