9.2.19: First post of my notes from college! If you can’t tell, I’m trying all kinds of new editing and formatting for my posts, so please bear with me as I sort things out.

12.10.18. An old spread from my planner. Between school, college applications, my relationship/friendships, and every other commitment, life has been a little overwhelming lately. I find that writing reminders to myself in my planner helps to calm me down :)

Oh thank u so much for answering my previous question! Also do you have any tips to learn programming languages for the exam? Thanks x

no problem! so before i get to the tips, i want to make it clear that we didn’t do any programming in regular comp sci class, the teacher made a separate subject for those of us who wanted to learn it. i only attended it for one year but here’s what i picked up from it:

learn. the. basics. i can’t stress this enough, but if you don’t know the most used 20-30 commands, it will only be harder for you later on. print out a sheet with basic commands and learn it

handwritten code!! this sounds so dumb, not gonna lie, but it helps so much. you don’t have to write down the whole web page, of course, but writing parts of the code that you had problems with will help you be more exact - some programming tools fix your mistakes while others don’t, so you might as well learn to be correct from the beginning

tumblr honestly helped me so so much. there are tons of ““templates”” here for desktop themes, member pages, navigation etc - make use of them! find a desktop theme you like, upload it to your blog and change colors, font size, add an updates bar and whatever your heart wishes! here are some blogs that can help you with finding codes: @enchantedthemes, @odeysseus, @completeresources

now, i asked my friend valentina aka @jordietveld for tips because she’s studying computer science at university so she has more experience - here’s what she came up with:

if you’re learning actual programming you need to learn how to make good algorithms first! an algorithm is like a cooking recipe, you need ingredients that you know how to mix to bake the perfect cake so!!! learn how to make algorithms before starting writing tons of lines of code that might work (but probably not)

practice practice practice!!! make small programs/pages. everyone starts small because if you don’t master the basics the rest will just be too difficult to understand

don’t get discouraged when things don’t work on the first try even if your algorithm looks flawless!! remember that the computer is way more stupid than it seems, you need to be super precise when you tell it to do something

also, imo buying books on coding is pretty useless, it’s better to just google how to do something and you’ll find tutorials with working examples. stackoverflow is a coder’s best friend
