We don't need another ADD "programmer"

I'm learning C/C++ right now too. I ain't reading books or watching videos. Just go on github and load a bunch of sources lad.
The only way to learn this shit.
Or alternatively you coud read the book after which you'll still have to load up some sources.

Make your choice.

ill be a programmer no matter what.
Did two year of java in high school and starting SE this semester. I want to learn c before my mind gets corrupted because we start with c++ at my uni

dont have much time to learn it considering we start last week of august.

So please elp me find a video series on it

>>55611701
wont you have a huge knowledge gap?

>>55611729
>ill be a programmer no matter what
>I hate reading

yeah no.

>>55611748
can you elaborate

why is reading a necessity for programming?
it is an archaic way of learning and it will die in a couple of centuries

>>55611742
>a huge knowledge gap?

what do you mean?
It does take a while of fiddling with the code to really understand what's going on but with this approach I've already grasped how the very basics work. Such as printing, If, bools, loops, arrays, sockets and a lot of other stuff.

The book is free online in pdf form

>tfw can't read a book on my monitor because i have ADHD and im easily distracted

>>55611771

are you even trying?

>>55611778
this stuff is basic knowledge common to all programming languages. Only the syntax change a bit here and there. But by reading a book like pic related you learn all the little quirks of the languages, hat it likes and dislikes, what is best for compiling and mainly how the included libraries can help you save time

>>55611618
>I hate reading

Get out

are you stupid?
no really, are you?

you're fucking reading stuff on the screen at the moment. you're reading code. you're writing and then reading your own code. you're reading other peoples code. you're reading design notes, you're reading bug reports, you're reading requirements. and so on and so fucking on.

god damn.

Good point. Any C++ books to recommend? Preferably one with some kinds of exercises in there. I think I'm pretty okay at this point but more practice couldn't hurt. Maybe making a GUI for my IM program somehow or something I don't know.

>>55611837
this guy looks so dumb
did you like this tutrial or did you just send me the first on on youtube?

>I hate reading

then pick up something else. You'll need to read if you're going to program.

>reading a book is the same as reading 4chan or reading code

ADHD
hate reading long stuff

>>55611889
no u read!

>>55611820
not when you want to actually learn things

every time i try to read K&R for example i read a few pages then i impulsively watch a youtube video and forget everything i just learned

>>55611771
I'm sure you're going to find video references for all the APIs you'll work with, which you will somehow try to find the specific functions you're working with in what will have to be 20hour videos as well.

>>55611857
For GUIs you'll need something like the Windows API.

>>55611934

so windows.h?

thanks anon. This should keep me busy for a while.

Sorry bro we're full. We don't want another C programmer in our community. We already earn $200k/year minimum, we don't want you to lower the average salary.
