Didn't waste 1 sec. So much straightforward wisdom in 6 minutes.

True, it is the same as driving. Literally no one applies the theory 100%. The real world is madness and is not safe like your book and tutorial.

Using C++ doesn’t “…mean you have to learn how memory management works” you can program in C++ in a style that is very similar to Python, TypeScript, Ruby, etc. the syntax is still much more verbose than those but the semantics are nearly identical. You CAN get lower level if you want but you definitely don’t have to.

Too late i already played with c++, java and python. As well as been looking at JavaScript.

Would've been nice if there was a group to meet beginners in web dev to share ideas

Hello Andy! My nickname is Andy 😀😀

C# is not bad these days to get started. Visual Studio is still a chunky download, but aside from the download time, it is easier than ever to get up and running, and the community support is decent. But yea, javascript is the one with the least barrier to entry needing only a text editor and a browser.

python was the first for me for me but actually more important is a framework, so learn Godot, gdscript! then you can do C#, C++ and or GLSL (the godot subset) i've still not done my JS myself, but it would depend on what framework and thing you wanted to do, in your case maybe node.js i assume

Great categorization

Completely disagree. JavaScript is a mess as a first programming language. Too each to teach bad habits. It doesn’t protect the programmer so you can easily and unintentionally go down a very bad path. The cleanest languages to learn proper programming are swift and kotlin. They’re newest and won’t let you easily get into bad habits. But they aren’t widely used. Java is a good compromise. Often taught in schools. It’s fairly clean and widely used. I’d avoid JavaScript or python as first languages. But one you get the idea of OO concepts they’re fine to pick up later. In particular’s still somewhat avoid JavaScript and lean towards typescript to be a little cleaner.

okay, no offence, 75% of this video is fluff and not necessary

Here

thanks so much

Thank you so much, I wrote down everything that you mentioned.

I gave up on programming despite trying over and over again. For example when I tried to learn C++ I followed several tutorials and yet when I completed them I still had no idea how to do anything. At this point someone would try to give advice like "You don't learn from tutorials, you need to write your own programs and learn that way!". That sounds useful but the problem with that is I simply didn't learn enough to do anything other than "hello world" and some math functions that any scientific calculator could do. How was supposed to make any progress with that? I just never understood how anyone could learn to code at all. There are some skills that I know I could learn if I put enough effort into it, such as learning a musical instrument or using 3D modelling programs like Max or Blender but coding seemed like something that was fundamentally impossible for me to grasp no matter what. Why? because the truth is that some people like me are just not intelligent enough to learn this skill and I wish someone had told me that before I wasted so much time on something that I could never achieve. 😒

meanwhile my school, Hey first year, learn Java, then never have to use it again, because second year, let's learn python for data analysis! Wait, while you do that actually, learn Full stack in the same year in C#. Learn Git too while you're at it. And for the cherry on top, have front-end on a course seperately, so also do some javascript! Not to mention networking theory, math, AI,...

Some people have 10 years of experience. Some people have one year of experience 10 times.

9:25 Ugh i hate taking breaks. (I dont go back to what i was doing, and also because of THAT i have extreme anxiety whenever i need to leave a task :/)

8:50 Ah so this is why it takes me 3 hours for 10 lines

I have made multiple successful businesses with happy clients using PHP and MySQL, and for some specific demanding functionality I have used Python.

quality videos 👏

Everyone thinks like a programmer just a few notice it

🤦‍♂

actually the reason i'm watching this video because i searched about ( why i'm forgetting JavaScript codes ) and then i found you ! and you talked about the Async and promises (and this is my current level in JS ! i'm really suffered from it)

I started 31 and had one year gap and start again and now 34 and hopefully get a job before my 34 is completed.

Hope you are ok!

With AI, most of these codes are just for fun. That old saying learn to code is mute now if you want a job. Time to learn plumbing or oil drilling.

Everything you said in this video can I also included web design into it? What I mean is knowing different design styles, using colors, and using various tools like Figma. Apart from knowing front and Backend.

Technically C++ is classified as a high level programming language like python and java. I think starting out learning scripting languages like PowerShell, Bash and Python is the way to go to get into programming. PowerShell is my first language I ever learned that didn't take long to learn. It made it easier to learn other languages like Bash and Python since all the programming concepts are very much the same.

python

Sounds fun! So of course I am going to discard this information and do the stupid thing: get into making the project I actually want to do that is very complicated haha

THIS MAN HAS THOUGHT YOU NOTHING.... Being a software entails understanding CODING LOGIC OR PSEUDOCODE and using a programming language to apply it to real life.... they know this but are not teaching it

Thanks for the video Andy. Appreciated. Do you think a lot of companies hire entry level full stack developers?

Thanks for taking your time to do this video Andy!

First it was html and css It was simple to learn but java script was tricky for me

How about the self taught manual

So the idea is to think like a programmer which means to be a problem solver

Seeing this video raises more questions for me than answers honestly. I am a full time engineering student, who will be pursuing a B.S. in Computer Science up completing my Associate's degree. Next year I will be starting my first CS courses. Those are both Java and C++.....

engineering , medicine etc these schools will fucked your life really.. too much time too much energy for what ?! to be a slave and competing with a big pool of slaves...:(( people should think twice better have a successulf business than to be an employee

Better learn a foreign language than learning software.. it is just not worth it honestly... PEOPLE WANT JUST TO GET RICH AND THEY END UP IN JOBS THEY HATE

Just relax with some factorio

Absolutely. Beginners should always start with assembly.

I think the title of this video is in fact “Unit Testing for “BEGINNERS.”

In response to the commentator who mentioned the “gibberish” comment…I think you need a more advanced and narrowly focused video…I appreciated Andy’s …”gibberish” as you put it! Thanks Andy, I used this as an intro for some beginner developers and it provided a clear, succinct intro for them! Great job!!!!

well i try but i seem to use the same code in the same way idk how to break through that wall

Interesting! Thanks for sharing this helpful information! 🎉

I was hoping to see it made from scratch

help. ive spent over 8 years trying to learn how to come up with original solutions/how to code stuff without google/tutorials/help etc. i still cant do it. people just say "practice", but how am i supposed to practice something i can't do? ive read some books about creative thinking and stuff like that and i just dont get it. pls help

Learn sql first, RESTful apis next, then a front end like NextJS. Then I would learn Python
