Shut up i don't want to learn 100 of programming language c++ java is enough

[@creepynutsrl]

@@EraserNum10 wtf rust is not that hard and rlly op if you know how to use it.

[@creepynutsrl]

@@EraserNum10 btw c++ and java trash use rust and go instead of java and c++ they are really bad, believe me

I wouldn't recommend rust to beginners. First off, it's a language that is meant to solve the many memory safety issues of c/cpp. These are languages normally meant for low level stuff where memory safety is crucial. Yes you can write WASM games with it, but it doesn't mean you should, as there are far easier options for a beginner. For example, Rusts whole ownership and borrowing system is pretty unique to the language and you won't find it in other common high level languages like Python, Java, C# and the fabled Javascript. In order for Rust to feel good to program in, one has to understand the problem it solves, in my opinion. Else you just feel like you're thrown into a complex language that does things not many other languages do and you won't know why or have as much transferable knowledge.

[@pes18fan]

agreed

[@eklipsed9254]

Yea I feel it would be too frustrating for first timers, (it was frustrating for a time even for me), I would suggest learning c though first because it’s simple and gets you into the thinking like a computer mindset

[@KonflictYT]

Im from a background in CS where I have only used garbage collected languages besides C and Ive never even used Rust to write a program. However, I think its hard to be certain its a hard language without the bias of having had garbage collected languages be the standard entry point for new devs for many years. If someone comes in and learns to code for the first time, they don’t have any predispositions that would cause them to not understand any more than other languages which they have not had exposure to. I get lower level languages offer a unique set of considerations, however, rust also offers a lot of unique advantages for the developer experience that may be pretty useful for new devs. Such as very clear error messages and all of those errors happening at compile time. This means that you cut out a whole area of confusing assumptions/debugging that a new dev would have to make when their app crashes. I get the benefits of say python or js which Ive used throughout programming and still actively use js a ton but Im not so certain its beneficial to have as much freedom, to a fault, as those languages allow you to have. Finally, to address being unique and not having as much cross over. This one is a hard one to understand the weight of. Im not too sure if having learned from this path would make you any less suitable to learn something else.

[@creepynutsrl]

So i learned python and c till now, would you reccomend me use rust? Because C is kinda boring and its really hard to programm in it too. (Its seems easy from the upper side but it isnt)

[@betogsmith615]

Nope!

[@Kappq]

Amazing! And don't forget The Rust Book obviously, it covers pretty much anything you need to know about Rust.

[@devabdee]

Which book? And do we have any great books for JS & Solidity?

[@theroboman727]

​@@devabdee _the_ book. officially its called "The Rust Rrogramming Language" but the rust community just calls it the book. its the most common learning resource for rust and explains everything you need to know thoroughly. It's completely free on the web just like rust by example.

[@manojrewani2843]

Definitely

[@Nash-ken]

I only recently started learning Rust to widen my language base and while it is hard as hell i find it really fun and i love the documentation for it and the community for Rust is really Nice.

[@gobrin4947]

I'm gonna try it once I finish learning c

[@Perrito770]

No one finishes learning C 😂

Also, Rust is way harder than python, make your decision! ;)

[@JeninSutradhar-n1e]

you're compairing Rust with Python? like idk why python even exists 😤

[@Arjun-yt8mg]

love ur videos brother but can u make vids for beginners.

[@CodingWithLewis]

Yes I can :)

[@holacontento]

I love your videos, try to share with us the links

[@CodingWithLewis]

Will do!

[@prawnydagrate]

I'm very familiar with Python and I started learning Rust a few weeks ago. I asked my friend (who's learning Python) for a project idea and he told me to make a *word guessing game* in Rust, which I finished yesterday. This is a great first project idea, combining reading a file (a list of 999 words), generating a random number (as the word index), getting user input in a loop, and using Levenshtein's edit distance to calculate the percentage accuracy of a guess.

[@ckpioo]

im stealing thag project thanks!

[@alexandrosfournier]

Amazing video! I was never interested in Rust before, but after this video i think i will give it a try! Your videos are really enjoyable and helpful, so keep up the good work👍

[@CodingWithLewis]

Thank you so much Alexandros :D

[@mosomiliardaru]

For the last 2 years i have been bullied by rust devs who keep telling me their projects are superior to mine, and now i am finally learning it myself to become one of them 😓

[@prawnydagrate]

I find that it's a much better experience to ask programming questions on Reddit than on Stack Overflow, because of reasons I assume you're familiar with. r/rust and r/learnprogramming are great places to ask questions without getting frowned upon

[@JustinWeaver-lv2ox]

Project idea: you could build a like button, over multiple platforms, that you can go back to easily. I'm a beginner in coding still. So this idea might not be a good idea

[@abrahamgsolis]

Hi Lewis, what would be the best way to start kids onto coding?

[@CodingWithLewis]

Depends on the age Abraham! If they are into Minecraft, I would recommend something like Coding with Minecraft. Or something like scratch :)

[@abrahamgsolis]

@@CodingWithLewis thanks! I have an 8 and a 10 year old and they do play Minecraft. So I’ll do a lil more research to see how to get my kids started. Thanks for the reply!

[@biskitpagla]

if they're 10+ y/o, i think you should go with python. video game scripting, MIT scratch all these are fine but it's better to show them the real thing when possible. i remember being capable of understanding basic programming concepts as a 14 y/o, and im from a poor country with bad education who only came into contact with the internet two years prior to that

[@Julie-v5y]

I absolutely love your channel. Could you explain what open source is exactly?

[@MrConminer]

As the name implies, its sourcecode is open, meaning everyone can read it, use it heck even change it. It's public

[@CodingWithLewis]

Thanks J :D It's code that is free to use!

[@Born2EditHD]

Open source code is where the source code is open to the public, so you're able to use it and contribute to it.

[@Julie-v5y]

Thank you so much for all the feedback! I really appreciate it!

[@theroboman727]

​@@CodingWithLewis that's just wrong, isnt it? please dont naively describe important terms incorrectly. Proprietary code can be free to use just as much as open source code. Open source means that the source code of the program is visible to the public. But open source software can still be limiting in terms of what youre allowed to do with it. Free software / FOSS means that the source code is visible just like regular open source software, but youre also allowed to redistribute the program how you want, even modified versions of it.

It looks too intimidating but I would love to learn it so I can use Tauri to make faster apps

[@prawnydagrate]

Rust is pretty verbose, but in exchange you get extremely safe code

after rust I will try learning c#

[@davegersl197]

Keep doing these videos please. Subbed

[@mrbaeman39lolman60]

Rust is a systems language, so you're deluded if you think you should learn Rust when you're not even interested in systems programming. Rust is also incredibly immature. Just stick to C and C++ because they're still on the heavy throne in terms of low-level infrastructure programming.

[@alperen6056]

What name the theme in vscode

[@Hardo_Rizzly]

hey I wanted to know can I learn rust while I am learning python

[@philippg6023]

Of course you can but i would recommend to Focus on python First, do a few Projects and then you can think about learning rust

[@pretro6136]

I wouldn't recommend it. Rust is a very difficult language for begginers. Try learning a language slighly easier but still more difficult then python, Like c#, ruby, javascript (with nodejs) etc

[@pelihahmo6951]
