wouldnt learning data structures and algorithms compliment learning visual programming?

just the topic, if youre not a newbie you dont need visual programming i just recommend it for building discipline and good habits and as an intro

what kind of habits are you referencing and do you recommend undertaking multiple courses on udemy or coursera - idk whether to learn by just trial and error on my own projects or following alongon a course

you just have to start

if you over analyze you'll never pick something

thats why visual programming allows you to make something easily and quickly so you can see if you're interested in continuing further

oh okay- i've been coding daily for the past 2 months and before that had an internship as a data analyst where i used vba msot of the time for creating analytical reports - what made me get into coding initially was, and i know it's shallow, was the prestige of being a 'coder' as well as creating something unique that could be used by other people

what made you get into coding initially @Happy Humble Hermit

i made video games in high school

why was that enjoyable for you

i love video games

why do you think you love video games?

at its heart, doesn't anyone's hobby come from self expression through innovation?

Are you like.... A therapist?

nooo

I walked in at the right time. Is there coding talk going on in here?

System.out.println("maybe lol") ;

i'm a noobie and only been coding for like 3-4 months so was looking for some advice

so yeah lol, i've been playing around with web dev but it just seems so daunting so i'm focusing on the basics and working up from first principles

been using a site calling "free code camp"

... Do you hate your life?

great resource - very hands on

Check out w3schools

@Kragt ???

yes @shadowlessnexus

They have some decent stuff

w3 is solid

aite

also Firefox has some good tutorials.

i use mdn too

Web dev is just something like the hidden circle of hell for me.

it's so intimidating initially and due to the number of resources out there i just fucked about for a month jumping from tutorial to tutorial

I also don't know anyone who enjoys web-dev. But if you want to do it.
1. Learn HTML
2. Learn CSS
3. Learn JS
4. Learn JQuery
5. Learn SQL
6. Learn your client server programing language tech. (I use Freemarker Templates and Java Servlets)
7. Learn AJAX

Give me a sec.

I got a great resource for ya for the first bit.

And after all that ~~kill yourself~~ learn php

PLEASE NO!!!

@Kragt wait so ur a coder?weet ty

Pie's in the oven, TONIGHT I FEAST!

Shit
