You need to probably eat and have a cold drink cos it's very obvious you are having a bad day. If not, there's no way you'd have gotten all lousy and all.

Be good and happy Sunday

I'm sure after seeing that screenshot , shame come dey catch you that's why you can't say anything sensible afterwards

There's no point engaging you anymore since you can't see that I am not even fighting you or whatever. So if that fills your stomach.. Enjoy ooo Opoko

How do you even have time to code when you are online everytime looking for whom to fight and insult?

This is the same reason you may not be able to learn c++ basic in a month after learning OOP in js..
You are wasting your time online too much for a programmer.

I can see you're switching s which is a complete sign of joblessness . As for me , I'm on leave enjoying my vacation so I have plenty of time to expose lying idiots like you .

The issue we have now is that many people want to learn how to code instead of learning how to program.

Companies are looking for programmers and not coders, and you may be wondering that what's the difference...

Programming a skill that involving using programming principles and critical thinking to solve real world problems while coding involves actually writing the codes. No one ever survives a a coder in the industry.

As ab experienced programmer, I have tried training people on how to program but a lot of them are just to hasty to be writing codes and eventually they get frustrated then end up dumping tech or running away to UI/UX.

The beauty of programming is that, if you master the skill, you can easily grasp any programming language because the idea is the same in almost every programming language but the syntaxes are different.

Programming is hard, is a way of thinking and is a skill you need to learn. The moment you get it, you will become a problem solver that is valuable to many companies. Someone that is already good in programming using python will understand, to a professional level C#, C++ or any other language in less than 1 month of studying.

These are the guys companies are looking for and not people who just want to code. Forget about the actual codes and learn the concept of programming, the sky will be your limit because these syntaxes will come to you naturally as you see them often.

I think I fully understand what you said because back in the days, that was how I mastered those old programming languages such as GW Basic, Fortran, QBasic, etc. Those programs are irrelevant today, but my understanding of the principles back then put me ahead of my class. Even my lecturers couldn't catch up with me anymore..

Once you understand the underlying principles of a programming language, the sky is the starting point for what you can achieve with it.

Thanks for the write up. Please share ideas on how individuals today can start learning programming the way you have explained in your OP.

Jashub:
Read what the OP is saying mumu...stop flattering with what is impossible. Ask top programmers on this forum if its possible...ask on Reddit and Quora , you'll get the same fvcking answer

Oga rest! For your mind now, you're a "top programmer". Calling yourself a programmer or a tester is an insult to real programmers and software devs.

"Top programmers" aren't as arrogant and uncultured as you are. I wouldn't be surprised if you can't even tell the difference between a text editor and an IDE or know where to start your code when presented with one..

You need to learn basic social skills from your Quora and Reddit buddies. Get off my mentions. Replying you is a waste of time!

I never said I was a top programmer ...that's your stupidity talking . And if you're pained because I'm calling out the Ops bullshit then that's your personal problem not mine ...

You're a spot-on all you've said. I know C and Python, and it's the same idea underlying all the programming languages.

That's why they're called programming languages generally. Leave that fellow with his low IQ and attitudinal issues.

... See how you're frustratingly
running your fingers on your keyboard typing trash.

This confirms my assertion that you don't know Jack about software not to mention testing them. Oh I forgot ... programming them is really impossible for you given what the Op has said.


Go and rest! If you don't agree with the OPs submission but if you can't rest simply because "trouble" is your second name then a hug with a transformer should give you a satisfying warmth and coziness.

Take care...

What do you mean by "to a professional level", you better stop deceiving people and yourself, i learnt kotlin in just a month but not to a professional level, i'm still learning till today, and the learning will never stop unless you want to be average, so stop capping.

Assuming you mentioned dart or kotlin or even swift, it'd have made sense because they share similar syntax, but no way you'll learn and understand c++ or any other LLL in a month after starting with JS which is not even similar. And stop making emphasis on oop , there's more to programming than oop and basis, you didn't even mention clean architecture or data structure & algorithm, that's why we have half baked codes all over the place.

I think the OP mean is to understand the basics of programming not just learning programming languages. When you understand the basics and concepts of programming you would be able to learn any language and framework. However, the time to master each language varies due to several factors like time devotion and language complexity.

Yes, the basis will help to get you started, but the OP saying a programmer will understand a new PL to a professional level after a month is far-fetched.

I don't even think there's anything as a professional level, in as much as you can build something reasonable with the language you're good, there's too much to learn.

dude, I know c#, if I sit down with c++ in a month, I go know am to a professional level.

And I mean it. Professional level means that I can build anything with it. Although experience will still count with regards to those who have been using it for a while but nothing will be a mystery to me in C++.

The way I attack leaning knew tech technology is violent and I'm not joking. I will be on it day and night for 1 month.

In programming, you don't have to know eveything. You only need to understanding of programming, that's enough to be a professional programmer in any language because it's almost the same problem solving approach.

Thought process and quality of code distinguish a beginner from a professional.

Not saying what the op is saying isn't possible but it'll give a lot of people false sense of reality about programming. I can easily grasp the basics of most PL in my domain in less than a week using tutorialspoint, and maybe additional 2 weeks to fully understand it using YT videos, but the main challenge is when you start to dive deeper into the framework. Every framework is different from each other and to be confident/get used to a new framework takes time and practise. You can build something, but nothing meaningful in your first month.

But where i'll agree with the OP is, understanding basics, principles, and best pratices of your main language will make it easy to transition to another.

How would you be able to manage that with your job anyway.

Workch:
Again, I said again and again. You will build an application with C++ in a month if you already know concept of OOP in Javascript.

It will become a problem if you want cram syntax. The moment you know concept of programming, it becomes easier to switch between languages. I will say it 1000 times.

You may not know it as an expert but you will build an app with C++ if you already know OOP in Javascript

You may try but you can't be close to good in c++ after learning JavaScript that's a script language. OOP oriented? Yes but c++ is somewhat more technical and advance unlike JavaScript that's loaded with many predefined functions with algorithm and logics sorted for you, you literally do all the work in c++.

Jashub:
Shut up ...you're not an expert. You're just a clueless moŕon behind a qwerty keyboard . Your profile doesn't even show any activity in the programming section and you're here talking . Nonsense

Can u not argue without insulting him you dumb fxxk

I no fit chop this kind insult without attacking you with icmb… where I come from , we no dey let go of insult ..

It’s either op is replying himself with that Jashub moniker with ulterior motive, or he’s just plainly dumb.. you’re being civil to person wey no get respect .



Dem no born him papa well make e talk to me like that.

Don't learn syntax.
Don't ever learn functions, learn the concept. You will get the codes when you need it and with time you will get use to the syntax.

It's literally what I have been saying. Just get a little bit use to the syntax, don't learn it verbatim

Dear programmers, please I will be glad to have a mentor in this field. I have about 1 year plus experience in JavaScript, PHP. I write some framework ls like Vue.js, react.js, laravel.

Please be kind enough to quote me and I will drop my .

Thank you chiefs
