Sup Amigos, Nelson here
You will be better off learning any concept well rather than mastering code first. Coding will always be the easiest part of software development. Trust me.

@@victoriadathan2675 always try to find a model in the real world. there's only a few concepts that you need to get down, and all the rest are various versions. it's CRUCIAL that you lear the concept and not the specific flavor of a concept. I'll give you an example. What's volume? you might say L x W x H. That's actually a specific flavour of the concept. In reality "volume" is actually a function where you multiply each dimension. It just so happens that the most common "volume" is 3-dimensions, but if you had 10 dimensions, volume would just be X1 x X2 x .... X10. You absolutely can and must self teach.

The first step is defining the problem on a white page with a pen and drawings: get clear with what you want to be done and the outcome. Once it's done, describe in general ideas the functions you'll use: the big blocks. Clear name with what inputs, what output. Then once the gigsaw is working on paper and in your mind, you do in pseudocode the algorithms on paper. And after than you start to code. Don't spend time at the computer. The game is out of the computer. It's maths, maths, maths. Goal design analysis organization code

Quality content as always! I totally agree with you Nelson, for each problem that I face first of all I'm using the "Divide and Conquer" method, I break the problem to little small problems and try to solve each of them separately and then merge the solutions. One more thing that I found useful for myself is to solve problems using pseudocode - just writing the solution in plain English (or your native language) words what each step in the solution will do, furthermore I found my self learning concepts better when I read books about the material this is why it takes my 2x more time to finish a feature or a small project because I try to understand all the bits and pieces that I'm about to use (not sure it's a good practice for all but it's working for me, and when asked why I did it this way and not the other way I have solid understating about what I've used so I can thoroughly explain it). Only when I have a clear view of the things that must be done I sit and start to write code so it's like 70% planing, understating and sketching a solution on a whiteboard and 30% of the time is writing code.

Currently in my work placement. Working as a software engineer in a professional setting really re-enforces this idea. I was so worried about my coding knowledge etc. But the most important thing is knowing what you need to do and how to achieve it, you can learn and develop your syntax as needed. If you have a good foundation in a coding language, you should be able to apply that across different languages implementing the same concepts, just different syntax. This is now why I am researching coding concepts and how I found this video

Just pick a few complex projects and build them from scratch. I bet you will learn data structures and algorithms while on the way. For example, I am a Medical Doctor and i decided to build my own EMR (i.e. a Hospital Management Software) using Python-Django. I didn't know anything about programming back then but my journey led me to learn about databases, data structures, algorithms plus I learnt other things like vanilla JavaScript and React. AND GUESS WHAT? It took me 2 years to complete the EMR Project. The Secret is that you learn more when you face and solve complex problems. Don't just build a Todo app and think you are okay. Projects that will teach you good concepts: 1. Create a Dating App, (once you start you will realize that it is more complex than you think) 2. Create a StackOverFlow Clone 3. Create a Retail Shop Software or Create any side project that you really love but it must be a complex project. Build Something you love, because if you don't love it you will quit along the way.

I been learning js for months now and I recently found that same approach...When I was learning js in the beginning I would stress myself out thinking js was sooo big and impossible to learn but now I'm working on whiteboard questions which is tremendously helping me breakdown the concept and the approach of why I'm using this for loop or these methods on a variable or wrapping all this data inside a function to get this result!. So basically what Im saying is thank you for putting this video out every new js developer needs to see things from this perspective because if not your going to be in the youtube tutorial cycle questioning and doubting yourself as a developer. 😏

The shift from code to concepts is a clarifying paradigm shift. If you haven't made them already, I would love to learn more about the conceptual paradigms that you work through for problem solving. Also, what are some good sources that you would recommend for thinking in this way.

At the moment one of my Univerisity modules explains the use of different algorithms such as: Quicksort Insertion sort Bubble sort Selection sort Binary Search Dijkstra's algorithm, etc. It also covers different collections structures, how they work and everything is presented in structured English so that should be implementable in most programming languages, although the Uni delivers it in Python. I must admit it can feel very overwhelming, and even once you learn about them, it's retaining all of that knowledge and knowing when the best case to use each specific algorithm is. I haven't been applying for jobs yet, because I worry that I have not got my own projects (not sure where to start), and Haven't spent long enough with one particular language.

so what about the interviews that ask to write code on whiteboards? aren’t they giving an impression that we should memorise codes or syntax?

This was really great tip; this is my dilemma. I worry about how much Python i need to know despite building fairly decent apps with SQL etc using Flask. I still feel I am not great at it; however understanding the whole picture and where all the individual parts fit is a real underrated skill. Thanks amigo!

Yes i get what you're saying, being new to this however the first thing I was worried about was just how illiterate I am, i assumed that the conceptual aspect of coding is just the theory on whatever problem you are solving be it mathematical or otherwise.

Beginning hacker here currently learning Python basics. This is very helpful as right now things like syntax etc are tripping me up (nearly had a for loop inspired panic attack yesterday :D) Trying to take it in in small bits and not get overwhelmed. Thanks for your advice!

Yes you are right! But at the start of programming it is good to fully focus the code but after spending time you realize i should know the process.

couldnt agree more. of course having some sort of basic foundation in a language is important. but you nailed it bro. currently taking this online class at coursera: Stanford algorithm specialization. widely praised as arguably the single best algorithm class on the web, and easily my favorite course so far, NOTHING is taught in code. its 100% concepts with mathematical proofs thrown in. but the professor intentionally doesn't teach you how to code up these algorithms in any specific language. rather, he may provide some pseudocode, but more important really hammer the points home, and very clearly explain the concepts. that's ultimately the shit that makes somebody a good programmer. the syntax and how to actaully write it- that will come...with practice. but understanding concepts is def FAR more imp. great vid

Thanks for sharing your experience Amigo! I have enrolled for some of your courses in Udemy and I agree that coding is just a tool. Programming is just a tool. But to be honest, I like Java and I am comfortable with it. I have worked as a hobby in Python and currently learning Javascript. Which language would you recommend for a web dev career for long term? I have total 10+ years of experience. Almost all on Java. Thanks in advance amigo!

I haven't watched the video yet, but the title touches on how I've had success with things I've done. To understand concepts makes the details so much simpler, and you can manipulat modify. Also once you understand the concepts, it's not always necessary to memorize things.

Have to drop a blessings to the General for this. Stumbled on this video and the Most High said to give it a listen and instantly it made sense to me in a REAL WAY. I hear get off the surface and go beyond the mundane. (In my case Its not enough to read the Metu Neter you must live it while always challenging and changing your MIND). Once you start seeing and changing the picture from the inside out, coding and life flows smoother. Just wanted to let you know that what you spoke on resonated deeper than just coding, people on the journey will understand. Bless up King. Give thanks for the words of Wisdom aka Tehuti which states "man is only as powerful as he or she serves as a vessel for Jah" Bless

you are correct, we should first learn how to identify the concepts needed to solve the problem from a general view... and then, figure it out how to apply correctly the code.... I'm intermediate student of python and I'm starting to realize this. In other words, you should have a prodigy memory to know all coding from lot of programs; but instead, once you know how to apply concepts you'll find the correct code to apply it , .Thanks

On point! Superb! I tell lots of 'coders' that they should aim to become solution providers and not mere programmers. The former focuses on solution creation, while the latter is bothered about how to write a program to implement a design. Focus on concepts and solution design; implementation can be achieved in many lamguages.
