ibkayee: And you're not a pro Haha, surely you know HTML5 and CSS3 too, maybe a bit of javascript. What's your secret? |

ClassicMcGee:Yeah I'm not bad at HTML and CSS Don't really know javascript that well I've been dabbling in some of these languages from a young age, lol trust me I'm not a pro but I can get by |

ibkayee: That's one common thing with pros,they started at a young age. And they'd always achieve a great feat. What projects did you do as a beginner? I'm out of ideas. |

ibkayee:I'm stuck again! it's really hard making decisions as a beginner. i want to make a quiz app, which technology should i learn JAVAFX,SWING OR ANDROID? |
Re: Is It Advisable To Learn Java As My First Programming Language? by CodeTemplar: 1:53am On Jun 08, 2018 |
ClassicMcGee:Master things like for loop, while, do...while, switch, String manipulation, Object creation and instantiation, pseudo codes, then do some exercise. Jumping into your project like that is more like a newbie who wants to learn driving by hitting the steering wheel on a highway or busy road. is like a pilot flying a plane for the first time without an instructor. Study for at-least a week then come back and I will assist you with a small pseudo code to guide you through a console based quiz app. Have u gotten the book Java How To Program yet? It teaches things like array, random numbers that will be useful for a quiz app. 1 Like |

CodeTemplar: Thanks, seems i'm breaking the speed limit. Ok,slow and steady does it,aiight.. Is there a particular sequence to learn those you said(object creation,pseudocodes etc.)? Maybe you should help me with the psuedocode, and what's pseudocope please? cc CodeTemplar cc ibkayee cc pcguru1 |

ClassicMcGee:Hey, you’d probably be better off searching google, there will be a lot of informed opinions out there |
Re: Is It Advisable To Learn Java As My First Programming Language? by ibkayee(f): 8:03am On Jun 08, 2018 |
ClassicMcGee:Pseudocode is like an informal, readable, ‘draft’ way of writing algorithms/programming. You don’t have to use standard syntax basically, you’d use it to plan out a program you’ll eventually write in whatever programming language you want it in for example. Trust me, google will explain some of these things a lot better |
Re: Is It Advisable To Learn Java As My First Programming Language? by ClassicMcGee(m): 8:21am On Jun 08, 2018 |
ibkayee: Thanks, About google,trust me there are so many conflicting opinions esp on quora. And i end up being more confused than i was before asking my question. And there are some pretty cool answers too but you wouldn't even get to interact with 'em. |

ClassicMcGee Check out the thenewboston on YouTube, he has java tutorials that are straightforward and quite entertaining (in my opinion anyway lol), his way of teaching makes learning fun. I’m a visual learner so these type of tutorials help me a lot 1 Like |

ClassicMcGee:Depends what you want Java fx and swing - for writing desktop applications. Swing is older/more ‘mature’, Javafx is meant to be replacing it so similar but with newer features. Android - mobile 1 Like |
