I started Project Euler using Python. The file is run from the command line with an int argument corresponding to a Euler problem.
I've got a dict like so:problem_functions = {
1: problem1(),
2: problem2(),
3: problem3(),
4: problem4()
}
At four+ entries it starts taking seconds to declare this dict. I timed it with six entries in the dict and it was taking SIX SECONDS just to get through that dict declaration. What the fuck is going on?
>>51970749

Depends on your perspective. If you really want to get into Computer Science (the theory behind it all), probably not.
If you just want to be able to get shit done, it is a great choice (provided you work mostly in the Microsoft ecosystem).
>>51970862

Yes.
>>51971287
Well I don't really know what my perspective is 100% it might be a mix of mobile apps, and so on. Just want to learn new things i guess.
>>51971306
Drop the youtube, the Bob Tabor.
Find a nice book, which is less common for C# since it isn't very often someone's first language.
Possible good books are Learning C# or Programming C#, both from O'Reilly.
Make sure you find a book that has exercises and is thorough in explanation.
>>51971362
Really? Will try to find something about it then, thanks for the tip =)
But so far I enjoy Bob Tabor, because I tried to learn some basic a while ago, but never really understood what Everything meant. But as I'am watching Bob, he explains so atleast I understand a Little bit more. But I'll follow your tip, and try to find a good C# book
>>51971256
>is it a good first programming language
No, learn C.
>>51971405
You're welcome to refer back to him if you're having trouble recalling something, but books are the tried and true method to really understanding something, while people that learn solely from videos and tutorials have a harder time reaching full understanding and originality. I don't have a link to a study but I can attest to that personally and have seen it true in a lot of people.
>>51971433
Well I've "Heard" some about that you basically need to know C for a lot of things. Might look it up a Little bit more.
>>51971447
Well it sounds like it makes sense, so I Believe you
>>51971489
C will teach you more about what is actually going on in your programs than C# will.
Or you can watch all of the old MIT lectures on the Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs (and download SICP by Abelson and Sussman) :^)
>>51971505
>C will teach you more about what is actually going on in your programs than C# will.
Assembly will teach you considerably more about what actually happens in your programs than C will.
>>51971433
>>51971489
>>51971505
While C was my first language, learning it without an IDE, telling other people to torture themselves with C to learn a first programming language isn't the greatest idea.
1) Unless they're willing to put the time in it, learning things like memory management just isn't for most people
2) C lacks a lot of basic functionality. Classes, lists, networking, UI, and threading just to name a few.
3) The language includes boilerplate code for basic things. One of the ways to get people hooked on programming is having them solve problems. If these problems require dozens of lines of code just to set up, it can be daunting to a new programmer.
Python is a great first language, but it reinforces other bad habits. C# is probably a good mix of the good and the bad for a first language.
>>51971537
>learning things like memory management just isn't for most people
just isn't worth it for most people*
>>51971537
>2) C lacks a lot of basic functionality. Classes, lists, networking, UI, and threading just to name a few.
I agree wholeheartedly that C is an awful first language considering the available options nowadays, but this point is just... awful and wrong
>>51971505
Okay, sounds like more of a challenge than C# and a Little more intimidating for me at the moment.
haha as soon as I read MIT my brain Went "Dude... you don't have enought brain capacity for that stuff" But will look in to it, when I get the motivation! thanks for all the info and feedback guys!

Many people start of programming thinking "I CAN MAKE A GAME!"
Then, after learning C, realizing C has no built in:
1) graphics
2) threading
3) fucking lists, at least
Yes, there are external libraries, but as someone who's done this all before, I can tell you it really throws people off from programming when they have to go outside of their comforting first-party libraries to external libraries they don't know anything about.

H-hey! DPT! I'm so happy! I have great news - I actually made a friend t-today..!

>>51971831
I found the answer.
I was referring to Javascript constructor function as a class. I didn't know that, and i was doing so because on the mozilla site they also referred to a constructor function as a class. I guess i couldn't tell they weren't serious.
example: from mozilla website
Custom objects
The class
JavaScript is a prototype-based language and contains no class statement, such as is found in C++ or Java. This is sometimes confusing for programmers accustomed to languages with a class statement. Instead, JavaScript uses functions as constructors for classes. Defining a class is as easy as defining a function. In the example below we define a new class called Person with an empty constructor.
var Person = function () {};
>>51972434

Hello. I've been working on small projects in python for the past few months, and I've been wanting to get my hands dirty with web dev (for even faster prototyping). I spent a good week learning HTML/CSS and was wondering if I should look into learning JS, Ruby on Rails, or something entirely different for making web apps. If I go the JS route, should I look into learning Node or Angular? Friends of mine have made some pretty cool things with Node, but I have also seen quite a few companies use Angular...

This is a backend web app framework.
>or something entirely different
JavaScript is the only language you can use client-side. For the backend, I'd personally recommend Go, but really anything besides RoR or Node or PHP is good.
>should I look into learning Node or Angular
Node is a JavaScript engine for servers that allows you write backend servers with JavaScript. Angular is a client-side web app framework. I would not use Node and in general avoid using JavaScript anywhere it isn't strictly necessary, because it's a really bad language. Angular is for writing single-page applications (websites that do everything via JavaScript and mimic a phone or desktop app). It might be worth learning after you know JS, but certainly don't start out with it.

I can see writing the VM in C, but the compiler? Awful choice.
Hey /dpt/, I'm not a programmer, and I know very little about it, however my son has been learning how to code starting with Javascript. He wants to make websites currently, and eventually move into software dev etc. I've googled a bunch, but I don't really know what direction to point him in to actually start making a functional website from scratch. From my understanding he would need to learn Javascript, Html/css, and some sort of back-end language like Python, C++, Ruby etc.
Any advice /g/?
He's 11 by the way, but insists on staying away from things like scratch because he thinks it's dumb.

a proof of work scheme: https://github.com/erose1337/pride/blob/master/proofofwork.py
A simplified version of the idea is to send a hash(few_bytes + long_shared_secret) from the server to the client. The client, knowing the shared secret, brute forces the first few bytes and recovers the "encrypted" data. The amount of work and by extension, time, taken to recover the data can be increased by incrementing the number of bytes to crack per hash.
assuming I'm not missing a really obvious attack, anyways.

Lisp
>>51973415
/g/ PLS
>>51973461
Something functional, like a Lisp itself, or an ML, Haskell, etc.
They tend to make both the act of parsing and manipulating the AST a lot easier, since they are good at working with trees through recursion, and generally have great parsing libraries (especially Haskell).
Trees especially are a pain in the ass in C due to manual memory management.
>>51973482
That is what I'm trying to avoid for the moment. I understand certain aspects of lisp can't be done outside of lisp, but how was the first lisp programmed? Was it in pure IBM 704 assembly?

>What language is best language to learn to make android or iOS games and apps?
You are (practically) required to write Android apps in Java and iOS apps in Objective-C or Swift. These are 100% strict requirements but apps written in other languages are either really shitty or very time consuming to write. (This is because the native APIs are written in these languages).
If you want to write Android apps, it's very important you understand Java first; otherwise you'll find yourself in the deep-end very quickly. I learned Java with the textbook "Absolute Java"; it's not bad but not great either, but I don't know of any better intro to Java book. Start there, then pick up "Android Programming". If you want to be extra proficient in Java, "Effective Java" is non-negotiable.

It's a first year class at MIT. If you're struggling, just take your time.
>>51973121
what class :^) I'm procrastinating studying hard for my data structures exam. I've been lightly studying for 4 or 5 days now though.
>>51973516
A Lisp interpreter can be written in any language. Nowadays, they are typically written in C.
Writing a Lisp interpreter boils down to writing read and eval plus whatever built-in functions you need (e.g. you aren't going to get very far without car, cdr and cons).
You need structures to represent values and symbols. You need a garbage collector for those structures. Eval needs to be able to handle built-in functions, user-defined functions and lambda terms.
The first question is: dynamic or lexical scope? For a toy Lisp, dynamic is easier, but lexical is more useful (e.g. let-over-lambda closures).
>>51973827
I'm reading up on that right now. I'm leaning towards lexical scope.

Just because you learned something differently the first time, doesn't mean you won't understand it the second time in another aproach.

The one no one seems to understand - the vector
Daily reminder that people who call programming 'coding' have no idea what the fuck they are talking about and likely never will.

fucking thank you
every time I've posted this, a bunch of faggots sperg at me for being a sperg autist
if you say 'coding' you sound retarded and should go back to writing html and css
>>51974214
how much like C style arrays are they?
>>51974237
>tfw I know someone that calls programming as coding yet he has done more than everyone in this thread combined and right now he maintains a big FOSS project.
I do agree however, but I think it should be used to distinguish between the act of writing code and the act of designing/thinking/improving/cirklejerking to it
>>51974273
they are literally just c-style arrays that realloc when they get too big lmao
inb4 anon uses me as an example for his statement 'no one seems to understand'
>>51974286
are they still contiguous in memory?
did this really need to become a feature in c++?

>>51974371
I can't understand why they don';t make it public
>>51974384
Probably because there is company IP involved and they have to go through a bunch of legal shit before they make it public.
>>51974384
There aren't any implementations of it ready to be used yet.
If you want to learn how to use it, study Mantle.
>>51974399
>There aren't any implementations of it ready to be used yet.
And? This is a even bigger reason to make it public.
>>51974398
But the people owning whatever IP are already members of it.
Not to mention that their other projects were not as hidden and had seen public drafts.
>>51974429
By implementation I mean driver.

If he wants to do anything else;

>>51974449
What's the use in making it public if it can't be used? You'd be able to compile stuff, but never run it.
>>51974286
That's true but what I meant by not understanding was that people don't understand the performance implications of linear memory access. Prefetching to avoid cache misses happens automatically and makes software run very fast.
>>51974479
So you're pro-vector over list, then, right?
Anyone who his pro list over vector (for simply storing data) is clinically retarded.
>>51974468
So normal people can contribute, criticise and make their own implementations. Be it drivers or something else (eg layers on top of OpenGL/Direct3D).
>You'd be able to compile stuff, but never run it.
Not really, you wouldn't be able to compile it in most systems as you still need the necessary libraries and headers to do so.
>>51974496
Of course. I'm almost never use a linked list. Do I LOOK clinically retarded?
>>51974479
Then you should just say you're pro arrays, really
>>51974465
>Ruby on Rails
You were going so well, then you blew it
>>51974498
You can't productively write a Vulkan implementation without strictly talking to the GPU. To implement it on top of OpenGL or D3D would be a categorical waste of time; it would be like writing a C interpreter in Java.
You also can't contribute to it apart from contributing to open implementations or tools. It's just a standard API. If it changes, it doesn't work for a given implementation anymore.

>not programing to interfacesList<Integer> a = new ArrayList<Integer>(); // equivalent to a vector in c++

now I can use a and b in the exact same way. I can profile my program and switch implementations if I find one is faster.

>>51974538
Your biggest concerns are contiguous layout in memory, which is a good concern, but not restricted specifically to dynamic arrays
The other two things is can be fixed with a variable and realloc
