How are you using your phone to code?


Well... At first it wasn't easy but I was able to make it work.
Let me give you a breakdown of how it works and I will drop pictures of how they look like when I use them.

- Termux - Termux for me is like a mini terminal for phones. It has it's limit but when I link it to my sandbox, I'm able to do my projects just fine.

- Sololearn - Sololearn is a very good app for learning and practicing what you learnt. I use it to practice my C coding

And if we start python, I already have an app for it.
Here are the pictures below
- Pydroid for Python
- Termux and
- Sololearn

Please do they offer classes for kids. My son wants to learn coding. He is 13 and in Js3. He is already writing robotics codes . Any information on how i can get him into a good coding class

ALX software development training is not suited for kids, as you mentioned, there're coding schools for kids his age, where is your location so I can recommend one. He can also start with watching YouTube coding videos for kids.

Re: My Software Engineering Journey In ALX Africa by Anonymous6o6: 4:40am On Jul 09, 2022
It's the weekend and you know what this means... No projects!
Will make use of the opportunity to study C, write some articles and read more. Lately my score has been going down because I keep doing my projects after the first deadline, which is why I'm reading ahead to prevent that, doing my project after the first deadline will automatically reduce my score from 100% to 65%.

We had an evaluation test yesterday (Questions were set from C language and shell), didn't think it was important but it was and the score was added to my foundation score as "Evaluation quizzes", oh Bleep! I have been quite careless this last week

I woke up early to study C because it has been frustrating me. I once had a misconception that it was easy because it had similar syntax with python, oh hell no!!! It's not! The difference are clear now and I'm suffering from every project. Even my weekend plans be looking too tight cause I have a lot to do with little time.

At this point, I'm tired of emphasizing that you study ahead (August cohorts), I'm pretty sure experience will be your teacher. Gotta go continue my learning

I have once stated here that I opened a private group with few colleagues whom I can associate with during tough projects to help one another. Well guess what? Since we started C project, the group has been dead as hell!! Only few guys have been able to keep it going but I knew it was quiet because of the difficulties of the projects. I also rarely spoke there because I usually do my projects after the first deadline which affected my score and my work has been taking too much of my time (I usually arrive home late by past cool.

But yesterday, I kept sending everyone of them a private message to know their challenges on C, we made a decision to do a Google meeting to explain all the C project from the first project. Everyone were going to participate and talk! That way, they're able to remember easily and feel the responsibility.

Because of the rain, network was shitty and it was already getting late (past 10pm), so we rescheduled the meeting to today. We shared materials for this week's projects. So that everyone can read ahead, prepare and participate in solving the task together, that way, we would be ahead.


The point I'm trying to derive from this is that, you will need your peers if you want to finish ALX!! David, who got hired by Amazon emphasized the role his peers played in helping him till he graduated.

For this week's projects, we will be starting basic data structures and algorithms. Not going to lie, I'm a bit anxious since I have heard all the hypes about data structures and algorithms but I'm also excited too.
