Please is the solo learn free?

sure. it's free. i will rather not use there as my primary source to learn to code. just to practice.

talking about practice, codewars is the place to sharpen your skills. This is a must if you really want to be pro. practice they say make perfect, permanent.

cheers

Please, I'm interested in data science, what computer language(s) do I need to learn and are there free courses online I can enrol for?

i'm not one yet but im also interested. from the little i know, python or R is the language for data science. there are free paid training that run yearly like fidelity bank digital trainee, iaspire and co.

me na free scholarship i dey find abeg. no money.

the few scholarships i know:

https://www.nairaland.com/5419705/iaspire-data-science-fellowship-program#82279968

apply, they have not closed yet as at the time of writing.


udacity runs some scholarships too : bertelsmann tech scholarship - google it - but i don't know if they have a data science track .

cheers

Ayomideen:
Oh wow
Thanks for the advice man

Sorry please if I may ask though,do you mean learning online wouldn't be in depth enough?

learning from one source is not an ideal way to learn anything. the person that wrote the programming book you want to read must have read at least 10 different books before he/she came up with his/her own opinions which he put together to form that book. so likewise you a learner. don't limit yourself to one source but make sure you have one source as primary(udemy,udacity-if you have the cash) while the rest will just be for buttressing and consolidating/having a broader view.

like people have already said the purpose of use should be put into consideration so as to pick the right programming language. for instance, you want to do web development, you either use python or PHP or nodejs. you won't be so silly to go and learn java or c++for web dev because it's a very popular programming language. that would be like using a trailer for the job of a bicycle.

another thing you must consider is your location's job market requirement. for example, if you are based in America, learning PHP for web dev might not be a bright idea but here in Nigeria learning PHP is the fastest route to securing a web dev job. you can go to ngcareer/jobsguru website and type PHP in the search panel to confirm.

all the best .

Ayomideen:
I'm learning it online,using the application "Sololearn"
I save the courses offline and then learn when I'm less busy
The app asks you questions after each explanation so you actually flow along with it.

And also I do watch videos on YouTube.

let me advise you,

all these jaga-jaga learning styles will not help you. go to udemy and buy a course and focus on the area you want to specialize in(web, app, data science etc). then you can use sololearn, youtube, books etc side by side. don't waste time.

Eudes:
When did you write the test?

i wrote mine on the 30th of sept.

Yeah, got too. mine is on the 15th. any tips?

Intelligence is not hereditary and is teachable. The problem we have in this country is parents (and sadly teachers) assume a child is either smart or dull. As such they don't bother to imbibe in kids the skills they can use to excel book-wise and leave them to their own devices.

Books-smart is not a true form of intelligence. Intelligence in its rawest form is knowing when one is hungry and acting on the impulse. It is as simple as that. Man has only managed to complicate the simple just like we do with every other thing. Any organism which gets hungry can learn tricks. Check around for animals humans have domesticated, every trick we teach them is forced using their desire for food.

i wish someone told me this 10years ago.
i just got to know this 2years ago after finishing uni. tho i graduated with 2.1, if i had this knowledge i would be a first-class graduate.

academic intelligence as far as I'm concerned is just a function of your habits. not your star, inanimate things, village people, size of the head, genes. This backward knowledge alone can make someone not maximize their true potential in life. who knows maybe i would have been a pilot by now but the thought that i was not smart enough -judging from sec school results- killed those dreams.

it's sad that something as important as this can be misconstrued to this level.
