Hey Jow Forums,
I am a frequent visitor of this board since around 2010.
I have recently decided to give programming a try. I have taken Friday off work and have devoted the whole of next week to play around a bit with this.
I am planning to jump straight into the deep end, learning C, using the book in pic related and google/jewtube.
I was thinking if I had a little program in my that I could work on it would make it more enjoyable, so if anyone has any recommendations of something that would be a good beginners program let me know.
Or if anyone has any other tips in general.
Thanks

tips
>use C references/videos if you don't get something, go over it until you understand it completely
>do all exercises in the book
>read and write as much code as possible in C
if you want to do a bigger project, the best scenario is to find something that is actually useful for you, something that you want to create or improve, or some problem you want to solve, and work your way through it. If you have no creativity, maybe someone can post some charts of Jow Forums programming challenges and start with the easier ones. The most important thing is practice, so
>write own code
>read other people's code
>understand it
>improve your own code/thinking
Sites like programming war/competitions might help too

C almost only jobs begins microcontrolers programming usually software developer Begin more Java/C#/JavaScript/Python/PHP or Go.
Go begin very close to C(no generics).
Computer Systems: A Programmer's Perspective use C as language teach low level programming.

Why would you start by learning C? You should start with something more relevant
Jack Wood
that's how you become a pajeet

As opposed to being an unemployed autist on Jow Forums?

Thank you for this.

learning a language like C before learning java, php, python, whatever, will be much more valuable than starting with a retarded language just because "muh jobs". If one is good with C, learning any other of those other languages will be very easy and quick.
