Free programming lessons

[CoolWave]

A good move.  You can definitely count me in . Java is more challenging than other languages. I want to understand classes in python .

My python thread is avaliable here. More languages will come: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5123974.msg50284994#msg50284994

I'm doing a language at a time so people don't end up with  a huge backlog try doing 2 a day if you want and I'll. Wait about 3 days after finishing this time.

Thanks

I also heard that Benjamin Trevor Grenier in Australia is giving free lessons for full stack developers

I'm not sure whether my strategy works or not. I'm happy to start on the other languages thiygh if anyone's interested (if it was any good for anyone or if you were waiting for them). I'll go with the one with the ne t highest votes...

I'm wondering whether to try to do this here and give people lessons in programming languages.

I can do asm (the basics at least), python, java and c#. I can probably do a few more but I'm not sure of my competency. Anyway if anyone's interested let me know and I'll try to give it a go.

Day 1: getting and setting environment, downloading required software.
Day 2: variable assignments
Day 3: inputs and outputs
Day 4: if else and else if
Day 5: loops
Day 6: file handling
Day 7: case/switch statements
Day 8: recursion
Day 9: oop potentially

Tbh at some point if I do this I'll go fuck it and start posting multiple things at once or one every 12 hours or so.

I'm interested! As for the poll above, I probably need all three, but programming always seem too cumbersome for me, hence I'm about to start learning.
Do you give any kind of books or handouts, even if they're created by not just for a back study guide or worthy notes?
Good job to start anyway.

Try looking at the python challenges on that thread (link in my personal message) would it be helpful if I produced solutions and posted them there or here, explaining what each line does?

Yes, It is best to be posted here.
I was lazy in learning that language, I started with you "lesson: 3" but I stopped because of the lack of time.
I hope you will return with more and more exercises.
Also, what is the best YouTube channel for learning? What do you think of this channel (@ProgrammingKnowledge)?
Are there any sources or references you can add?

Can I translate that topic?

I'll take a look at that channel in a bit. I'd encourage translating the topic but I'd suggest you list me as the author and add a link to the original thread just in case there are any discrepancies in translation (it isn't normally symmetric).

[Bitcoin_Arena]

Thanks @Jackg for bring up this initiative. I have always wanted to get some knowledge in programming but i really didn't get any good place to start off from.
I am interested in learning python.

I've started this off here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5123974.msg50284994#msg50284994

Let me know if you have any feed back or suggestions.

Much better if you will set the main thread as Self Moderated to avoid some random post.

Hey man, put the link in the OP... I was like where the hell are those courses for about 5 min or something.
It's a great fun to play with, tho.
... and great work btw.

[jackg]

Yeah... That's been mentioned and I'll make the next one self mod but no one posted on it until the end anyway...

[Promudy]

Thanks for this platform. Can a beginner learn these things from the scratch? I mean one with just basic computer knowledge and no programming knowledge?

Hi sorry yep, I'm hoping this will be exactly what this is used for.


I've been busy with exams and a few other things recently. I'll finish off the solutions for the programming challenges today and post them (I want to make sure they're all accurate before I do).

I'll open up another thread for code reviews and then maybe one for the fundamentals of C# also but I might do them a few days apart...

[karmakeddon]

Jack, thanks for the opportunity for giving some of us old fogeys the chance to learn a new programming language.

Welcome back jackg, haven't seen an update on your thread here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5123974.0 for a 1 and a half month, I am really into your thread even I have no background on any programming languages. Furthermore, I am on YouTube too digging some helpful videos that will add more on my way to learn more about python. Do you have any recommendation of helpful videos on Youtube or any platform that has tutorials via video as that's what I prefer to learn fast.

The thread for code reviews will be another thread as well as the C# lessons, am I right? Can't wait for it too.

[jackg]

Hugeblack posted a YouTube channel above. Perhaps you can take a look at th at.

I'm currently on data and I've used about 5/6gb trying to sync a full node so I'll have to wait for when I can get WiFi again in order to check it.

Yes these will be two different threads that I'll make. I'll probably take on board the suggestions and make them self moderated.

[rhomelmabini]

I've never seen, thanks by the way, it seems a good channel with lot of subscriber and tutorials. Thanks to hugeblack as well for bringing it up here too, this is another storage of lessons and sleepless days coming  .

[jackg]

I have added the coding solutions and will shortly post a topic for code review. I did the first four challenges that should be all that is needed to cover the fundamentals.


EDIT: I'm thinking of making all of my code review threads based on all three programming languages or should I do one individually for each (I don't think I've asked this yet).

Mate, I would like to make a request for this tutorials of yours,.. Would you please continue some keypoints to python language as well as the c# and javascript + sql (another thread for the C# Language)... Me and my buddy are currently studying these languages and I find your thread useful.

And as I have seen the last part there are some things that I want to know, would you mind showing us some more? Even with some examples of something like a library system or an inventory just like in java,... I have done these things so far using java language, so I would like to know how will the codes looks like on python...

P.S. if you don't mind I would like to talk to you, its your call where to... Whether on telegram or any other chat apps.
I'm way straight and looking forward to learn other languages, so you're help will be also an added information for me.
