When I realised I wanted to be a data analyst. Then I went to uni where we’re taught java. When I get a proper hang of it I’ll need to learn python. Dabbled a bit in web development(front end) in the past might have to do a bit of that whenever I’m bored. |

crownedrookie: Lol... Truth is, not everybody needs mathematics to be better programmers, but when you want to take programming to a whole new level, then you'd be needing mathematics and algorithms. For prime numbers, you'll have to iterate through the numbers less than or equal to half the number, and check if they divide the number. So, Using javascript let isPrime = false; let num = x; //choose the number yourself for(let i = 1; i < Math.floor(x/2); i++) { //you can still use parseInt(x/2), it casts it to an integer if(x % i == 0) { isPrime = true; break; } } You can try and run this code. I didn't run it, 'cause I just typed with my phone. 1 Like |

zeestone99:HTML and CSS aren't difficult. If you have a functional PC, and can spend about an hour per day for practice, I'm sure you'll breeze through both within 2 weeks. It's JavaScript that's the real deal. I thought myself, so you can do it too. I recommend: *HTML and CSS: design and build websites by John Ducket and * Eloquent JavaScript 4 Likes |

PrinceCEE:You're supposed to assume the number to be prime initially, with isPrime = true. Then inside the if statement, if a factor is found, you set isPrime to false. |
Re: What Made You Pick Interest In Programming by Red2C(m): 2:25pm On Dec 27, 2019 |
A faster way is to use Math.floor(Math.sqrt(x)) |
Re: What Made You Pick Interest In Programming by Red2C(m): 2:30pm On Dec 27, 2019 |
Also, the initial value of i cannot be 1, as any number % 1 = 0. This means no number will pass the test. Therefore, i should be initialized to 2 at the start of the loop. |

If only I can get 2 minutes of your time, you will be glad you spent it wisely... After much observation, I understand that a lot of Nigerians wish to create a passive income or a side hustle online which is legit and can help them earn so much.... Upwork is one of such legit online site where you can work from the comfort of your home, thereby turning your comfort zone into your income zone. Another advantage with upwork is the opportunity it's provide for you to work with foreigners, who have value for your services. For example, when I deal with foreigners clients, I charge between 5 to 10 dollars for 500 words which is about to 3600 in Naira currency, but when I deal with Nigeria clients I hardly make #1000 for 1,000 words. Now, I understand that alot of individuals wish to get on this platform and keep getting rejected... Smile. That's the only disadvantage is upwork. Now, I want to help just a few serious individuals who are ready to earn a fortune on upwork legitaimately. With my approval algorithm, you will get a approved upwork account within 30mins. I kid not. You will also get free ebooks, Videos and links to writing proposals which has been tested and trusted. Kindly click on the link below for more information. Whatsapp or call: 08141913541

I usually loved the way people developed apps mostly games and this was what motivated me to be a programmer. Currently i am a web developer and i spent over 4 years learning web development and some software development and i can proudly say i am good when it comes to writing codes and breaking keyboards. I also create youtube tutorials on web development and software development here is the link incase you like some of it https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_Su4yy60CsX9kjFzYVc84g?sub_confirmation=1 |

Everyone wants to handle a section or service on the web. that's cool. the web is damn wide for all to get a space. I am a web guy from the web development section and frontend practically and backend for security. (Lover of React and nextJs)... NO EGO(just me). I have been following this thread to this point... I love it. if you are a beginner and confuse, worry less it is normal cus there is a lot of info, lang, framework/library online. so its confusion already. I am a learner too, every web personnel out there is forever learner. its a thing of mental disturbance sometimes(quoted a poster from the comments here)...lol ![]() have explained this on some thread but will do it again here. I will focus on web development. Web development is of two sections primarily; FrontEnd Developer BackEnd Developer 1. FrontEnd Dev. This is the beginning of the web and mostly a Web developer (not primarily the start of web cus you need to understand how the web wotk e.g HTTP, www... etc). but not everyone wants to be a frontEnd dev. but there is a need to have little knowledge of how things run in this section (e.g like Html, basic CSS). now what a Frontend dev must know as a beginner 1. HTML 2. CSS 3. Javascript 4. Control version (am a fan of Github)....... this is very important for both frontend and backend dev. I have a detailed Ebook on GitHub as a CV. There is bootstrap but forget it until you are good with CSS. Graphics design knowledge is an advantage but not a must. best resource. (ebook and online) I love so far. https://javascript.info/ https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/Getting_started_with_the_web (after reading the whole page, click Installing basic software and move on reading). https://w3schools.com after learning intensively the beginner lists I made. its time to choose a Javascript framework/library (it's for frontend ). Have you heard that the framework is the machine? Framework/library makes it easier to develop a web app by writing pieces of code and link them together to make one powerful app. not compulsory to build all projects with framework or library E.g calculator, converter, static page. But building them with frame/library increases your confidence in it. Frontend dev has their js framework and library used for UI rendering just as backend as theirs. The popular ones are; don't mind the order of the list 1. Angular. (framework) 2. Reactjs (library) (nextJs and likes of others for server rendering--- still a frontend tool use with reactjs ) 3. Vuejs (library) ......others not mention. 2. Backend Developers The backend dev deals with logic, dynamic, security (frontend also deals with this when they work with js framework/library). They know little of the frontend and have tools for interacting with UI and logics at the back. Framework and Languages for backend respectively. --(framework are in bracket and lang with no bracket except ASP.NET with its lang. inside bracket). laravel is the framework(PHP) Django(python) Express (Node.js/JavaScript) ASP.NET (supported .NET language (C#, Visual Basic, etc.)) Flask (Python) Ruby on Rails (Ruby) Mojolicious (Perl) Spring Boot (Java) .... first 4 on the list are worth it. check this https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/First_steps/Web_frameworks to know factors to consider before choosing a framework. ..................................................................................................... Control version (eg Github) is very important for all programmers. for well comprehensive and practicing ebook and videos on FrontEnd and BackEnd Dev, beep me. check my signATURE to reach me. hope I make someone smile with career direction now in web dev. there are some tools I don't mention, I don't want to derails you from your basic learning but as you learn you will know e.g Codepen(just like your note-keeper on fone). Get a LinkedIn account and showcase your project when its time. you will know the time yourself. yah.. if you have both dev section skill. GBAM.. you are a full stack developer (need to know some packages which I did not mention but trust me, on your way of learning the skill, you will surely meet them and forcefully learn them. ![]() ![]() 7 Likes 1 Share |

Please guys checkout my PHP video and leave feedback/review. Other language like pyhton, sql, HTML, CSS are coming soon. My believe is that programming is easy, its the tutorials that makes it difficult for Africans to learn. This is why I made the video, to teach Africans programming and core programming fundamentals/concepts by using illustrations that are close to the African environment https://www.nairaland.com/5624377/creating-best-programming-tutorials-africans |
