Great news! So happy for her. May she translate her academic prowess into practical impact n' solution for Africa.

She should do her Master's abroad or in CU.

Heard she got only one B throughout. Awesome!

These are the people we should nationally award.

I say AMEN to the above.

She can't be given a National award, she has to do something for the nation internationally or invent/innovate something good that would help the National Society for her to be given such.

If anyone must attain this height, it is only through dedication, plans and hardwork. Kudo man, keep it up

Please, I have made this silent plea to the mods by mail and have gotten no response. I am formally making it here..........

I am quite young here on NL.

I have been off NL for a while with the moniker "Elchicolo", say two or three weeks. Trying to log in some days ago, I discovered it was telling me wrong username and password.

I tried ceaselessly until I did reset the password, and it came up with my username as "oshozondii".

I am still baffled on that. I decided to ask a friend who is much older here to let me know what the problem is, he tried by sending a PM to Elchicolo, not received....sent to oshozondii and it was received.

I also do not think that Elchicolo was deactivated otherwise it would have indicated "nobody
NB: Is the advise of not using your actual mails also important here?, because that's what I did but still need to know how safe or unsafe going forward can be.

Was the account hacked or something......

I don't understand.

You email was simply mapped to that oshozondii account. You seem to have forgotten the email you used for Elchicolo account

you sure knew nothing about what is happening.
They do not just stay and wait for African corrupt leaders to bring their looted funds over to Europe,they rather ensure the enthronement of corrupt dictators all over Africa.
They support dictators to kill ethnic groups that are perceived as dangerous to the interests of the colonialists.
Ask yourself the reason the west are more interested in Nigeria election than their own.
It's simple,they need to install puppets.
They support coups to upstage erring dictators as in the case of ironsi,murtala,and 1985 coup that removed buhari because of buhari's strong man stance of standing up to the British so they encouraged babangida to topple the government and he accepted to implement the imf policies buhari rejected which devalued our pride,the naira which was very valuable then.
Then gej started talking tough and they supported buhari over gej.
Then buhari started talking tough, asking for the British to return our looted funds,then he travelled for the treatment of his ear infection and came back younger.

I laugh at you in foreign tongues, there are books written on the topic you're talking about, but please don't preach it too far, Africans has always sold themselves out, almost at no time have the whites done this evil using their own hands, most blames comes back to us because we are the ones that implement the ultimate evil to ourselves from slave trade of the old to corrupt practices today, and mind you, It is only a thing of rumor that the higher power helped Buhari win the election, Although Jonathan mentioned something in his book concerning USA and all but that is not a convincing fact why he lost his elections.
Mind you, our own evil to ourself is far greater than what the white is doing to us.

engrchykae:
The British, Americans and the French are living large because they are stealing from Africa.
Greece, Serbia, Cyprus etc are poor or average because they are not rogue we enough to steal from Africa.
This is the truth

point of correction, they didn't steal from Africa, they are profiting from Africa corrupt practices. Africans took most of the money there themselves and they seized it and make it theirs which is what is thr corruption the original post was talking about.

Holamic:
For removing that amount from our current GDP, men it time to praise yahoo boys for brings this over us.

stop talking like an ignoramus, ask yourself the simple question, who took the money to that place? then again you will understand that the yahoo boys aren't helping matters, they are children of those who has forsaken our country.

AloyalNigerian:
Hi all,

I am working on a personal project that requires me to grab the value selected by the user from the drop-down and use that value to in another place probably to display it as a text.

var gender = document.getElementById("btn-wrap";
gender.addEventListener("change", genderGrab, false);

-------------//function genderGrab () {
//	let gender = document.getElementById('btn-wrap').elements["choice"].value;

//	console.log(gender);
//} .options[gender.selectedIndex] --------------- I tried this method 

------------- function genderGrab(e) {
  	 let target = document.getElementById("btn-wrap".elements["choice"];
   console.log(target.value);
 }-------- and this method.

I was getting errors stating that it can't find the value of undefined. I even tried to see if the eventlistener is working perfectly, and it is.

This issue is giving me tough time even though I am using the value on the same page, imagine whta I am going through trying to use a grabbed value in another page.

I am so sorry if my question is not clear enough but you can always ask for more clarification.

Thanks in advance.

Here is an example
HTML CODE

<select id = "ddlViewBy" >
<option value ="1" >test1 </option>
<option value ="2" selected ="selected" > test2 </
<option value ="3" >test3 </option>
</select>

Running this code:
let target= document.getElementById( "ddlViewBy" );
let value = target.options[target.selectedIndex].value;

kudaisi:
More details please, Web App, Mobile, Desktop ? JavaFX, Servlets, JSP, JSF ? Even better, share some code.

But theoretically,
I would save my state values somewhere, maybe a DB, or In-Memory
When a control interaction occurs, I'll update the state,
For every page Load, Focus....I'll update the controls with the values from the state

Data persistence

I just created a statistics WordPress blog but unable to type statistical functions and equations which is limiting my post.
Any assistance from the techies in the house?

Mathematical JS library can do that easily search for it.
An example MATHJAX check http://www.mathjax.org

Grandlord:
So I'm done with learning the basics of python and I guess programming generally, and I want to get going with the projects only to get bombarded by these many modules I'll have to download and install.

That's actually not a problem but the problem is, these modules have so many functions and methods that I'm wondering how I'll get to learn them all.

How do I know the various methods/functions that exist in various modules that I might need in my programs?

Do I need to read up all of the modules functionalities from the libraries or is there an easier way out here?

Dont learn library, learn how to build app and by then you will know what library and what functionalities exist.

Goodbloke:
thanks bosses, i already enrolled to take programming classes,
But i have one more question
Between computer science and elect elect which is better cos am still thinking which is better for me to go for?

There is an overlap beyween them but computing scientist basically concentrate on how a computer should think. elect/computer engineer focus on building gadgets and hardware be it computer, electronics etc.

1x2x3:
Yes I agree with you. I have lived in sane societies outside the shores of this country and I'm highly aware when human rights are being abused or when there is a deliberate effort to keep the public in fear. Its not about being venomous when people talk about crime but the ability to speak up when you see the rights of a common defenseless man being trampled upon.

That being said, if you happen to be a crime investigator and you are presented the case of the said girl, would you just buy to the idea that more clubs should be raided because that where you think whoever did that will spend their money? The club itself is an avenue for another man's income who is not into crime, its a source for a DJ to earn a living, its a source for cab men to earn some income, its a source for showbiz......instead of raiding randomly and shutting these sources of income down why not make thorough investigations, gather enough evidence, mark your suspects and hit them at home when they are surely drunk or too tired to move?

You shouldn't turn blind eye on this just because it doesn't affect your source of income directly.

Truth be told your 100% right! intelligence gathering and marking of the actual criminals through thorough investigations will be best procedures and it will go a long way to track criminals and their long term activities including their organizations and channels. It will reduce damages owners of clubs and bar have to pay because of criminals but even at that there has to be a close watch of how bars operate to minimize the likely hood of them being a syndicate to criminal organizations. Fact is our society is really rotten.
The girl in the original post might have been kidnapped and traumatized but how do we know when no proper investigation will be carried out.

adioolayi:
keep complaining ....The closure is here to stay.

For majority of Nigeria's population born in 70's and early 80's......Rice was gold...eaten mostly around festive period and in parties. Maybe we should go back to that era and start eating our porridge corn and Beans. (Egbo ati ewa)

if you understand the conspiracy theory, maybe you will later come back to delete this post.

1x2x3:
You see why I said you are myopic? Now I will add deranged to your personality. May you die a painful slow death and your lineage be subjected to afflictions of sickness and poverty. I curse you and my curse shall remain before the heaven and the sands of the earth.

The moment you become venomous when people criticize crime, the more suspicious you become. As much as the guy you quoted isn't all that right, he is also not all that wrong. Some club are grounds to catch some so called criminals and robbers who flaunt heavily with money stolen.
Actually I would rather prefer that efcc raid down our big boys who are our politicians. sadly, it isn't happening as expected and to worsen issue people seem less concern and pragamtic about the crimes of politician and our leaders but throw more focus on petty criminals they see everyday in their home and street, I call this pettiness.
Moreso I am not stating that cyber crimes should be swept under the carpet, it is a major crime in our society today.

Goodbloke:
Hi guys I intend studying elect elect next year by God’s grace but does my course have anything to do with programming? Cos I have a flair for programming stuffs

Have you heard of what is called IoT(internet of things)?.. Do a research about it and there is your answer.

feji12:

You can contact me through through WhatsApp. 09057606523 thank you.

can you afford the pay?
Also no one can really teach you enough programming especially in Nigeria here.

Emanodimo:
Mediocrity is the characteristics of simple minded individuals like you. If students beg lecturers for sex, can he simply reject and likewise report to authorities?...............

Hello Bro, calm down............ I gave a viewpoint from a broader perspective by creating a balance.... To ur question.......... If students beg lecturers for sex, can he simply reject and likewise report to authorities?............... Yes, there are lecturers that have done that..............From your question, i can deduce, u are myopic in nature.....U would have thought that no lecturer would ever reject such offer by some female students?.

your last statement is a shocker to any sane mind. You can do better than that.... it was just too childish.

I've been seeing a lot of people wanting to get this done for me but these are always the challenges I have with them.

Most are not responsive anymore after I must have made a commitment fee.

Some charges are just too much that on seeing their prices I just zoom off because I can't just price it.

Some will promise not to take anything before they show some level of project done halfway before I pay any part payment which is the best I've seen so far but unfortunately I can be calling the person in question for over a million times daily and won't pick or rather respond to chats which makes him the most annoying.

Some will just chat me up and with no headway.

I'm looking for highly professionals that can help with this, but I only have a few modifications which I'll give details when we're ready to work.

All I need are well written down and straight forward.

Or this type of site can't be created anymore.?

I'm just so tired and pissed off already. But if there's anyone that can get this done then let's roll.

Would it have cost u anything to enlighten me directly on the concept? U rather choose to attack first, then spew trash afterwards. Alaye swerve Abeg.

You called a question an attack. and perhaps you've heard the saying "Eat the meat and spit off the bones". Don't expect meat always in life. Have a good day.

AllyPolly:
Advertise a site?
Smh, u wrote so much without making sense

I asked a question and made my point after the question but your block head wouldn't aid you to seeing it.

AllyPolly:
I just realized that whatever is on nairaland is as well on the sites below. Anybody want to explain what is happening?

4itbrains.com
Avwow.club

Are we safe?

Are you tryna advertise this site to us
For the record I didn't bother visiting.

Have you heard of web-scraping?
or have you heard of website mirroring?
if you have then you wouldn't be surprised.

Badonasty:
Lol...but these òyìnbó people don suffer for naija youths hand

Not necessarily, some people they scammed could also be from Nigeria and Africa also. They scam anyone

After working for years one have to still beg and protest for their own pension!
What sort of situation is this
what is wrong with us?

ambitiouschap:
boss you don confuse me pls guide me through.
I don tire searching Google and playstore. I have w3 school app is that one good?

- download a java pdf textbook
- study the fundamentals
- learn to code small app by yourself
- learn new tricks from open source code from gitub projects

solmusdesigns:




your street credibility is tied to how many record you can sell....... should we check thier digital sales on itunes then we would know the real don



...

Lets check for only their real rap songs and not the songs they turned to afro pop artist and do some wishy rap.

Also how do we check for vintage musician like jazz man olofin?

ambitiouschap:
I saw it here I download it so I can learn JavaScript

Dont just go around copying codes, as a beginners there are many basic things you should spend your time learning which are variables, array, functions, loops etc I advise you use a complete beginner pdf book.

window.plugin is a custom library and your code will only work if you can link such library to your code and this will be if the developers are willing to give you access to such code.
if you're done learning fundamentals I will advice you start doing your own code and learn more by reading complete codes of open source project e.g JQuery, bootstraps etc

KubwaBoy:
I won't call myself a web designer but I know how to build wonderful websites using WordPress and enhancing it with some great plugins. But anytime I tell people to give me jobs or let me design the website for them, they tend to underrate what I can do with wordpress.
This is why I am curious to ask if there is any limitation to what a WordPress website can do.

yes actually, you only know how to use wordpress software. You don't know how it was made. Although many people underrate one of most powerful web tools housing more 30% of web. Actually you have alot of short comings when it comes to making dedicated websites.

jesmond3945:
why would i help you when you cannot read?

Hehehe brake failures.... Now I have hanged you.
You were just trolling the group with your weird ideologies.
Without references I can't take you serious.
Next time learn good dogding techniques, this one you just did is too childish abeg.

jesmond3945:
i think you have problem reading stuff and comprehension. You like to respond without sense. They allow our leaders to steal, is that the only stuff you inferred from my write up?
Of course I would be stupid to blame them for that. Why keep corrupt money and turn around to say we are corrupt? thats where I have problem with them and the reason is because they use corrupt money to develop their country. Let whiteman stop collecting corrupt money from africa.

Still more garbage... oga help me with a references on this your ideologies.... I don't need your soap opera you have Formulated.
