Posting Etiquette

  1. Ask the main part of your question in the title. This should be concise but informative.

  2. Provide everything up front. Don't make people fish for more details in the comments. Provide background information and examples.

  3. Be present for follow up questions. Don't ask for help and run away. Stick around to answer questions and provide more details.

  4. Ask about the problem you're trying to solve. Don't focus too much on debugging your exact solution, as you may be going down the wrong path. Include as much information as you can about what you ultimately are trying to achieve. See more on this here: https://xyproblem.info/

Recently I discovered Harvard's CS50 series of classes.

  • It's a series of pre-recorded video classes
  • Each class comes with a programming assignment
  • You complete the programming assignment using an online Codespace they provide in VS Code (zero setup!)
  • It's all completely free

A really excellent way to learn programming in a class structure without actually going out to classes and having hard deadlines.
