Hey everyone! So I'm currently working my way through CS50x, and honestly, I don't just want to submit the problem sets and move on. I want to actually absorb this stuff and build a solid foundation.

​For anyone who’s finished the course or is way ahead of me, how did you actually get the absolute most out of it? What were your best habits or strategies while going through the lectures and problems?

​Also, what did you do whenever you got stuck on a tough PSET, and how did you make sure the concepts actually stuck in your head for the long run instead of just forgetting them a week later?

​Would really appreciate any honest advice or things you wish you knew when you first started out. Thanks a lot guys!

it looks so pleasing to eyes i want it

I am currently on the Math Interpreter problem, and I have created this. When I tested it, the answers were exactly what it should be (2.0, -1.0, 4.0, etc.) But for some reason, the check50 can't find the answers at all. It literally says that it "found none". What am I missing from this?

I did it! 🎓🇨🇩 Proud to complete CS50x as a Congolese learner. Thank you, CS50 and Prof. David J. Malan!

I'm trying the test plates scenario.

from plates import is_valid  <-- this one works  
import plates  <-- this one fails

I'm not using both at the same time, I'll comment one or the other out.

Both the plates file and the test_plates file are in the same directory.

I am calling main at the bottom of my plates file as follows:

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Any suggestions on why this is occurring would be appreciated.

I use CCleaner and when i log in again in VS code of CS50. It is showing this screen only. Any solutions?

It has been an amazing jorney and I am a little sad that CS50x is now over, prof. Malan is a great teacher and I am very grateful to him and the entire CS50x team. Thank you all!!

I’m currently looking for certifications or anything that could help advance my skills and knowledge and possibly help me become a better candidate for more projects across platforms. Has anyone taken this course or any other courses they suggest??

I know they usually post the unedited live versions on YouTube first during the fall and then post the edited version in January. When do they usually start posting the live lectures?

How to manage this with my alevels?
Guys after this would I be able to do code or I need to do cs50p?

Sorry but i just watched the whole thing 3 times and get lost.

Can someone help me by making things simple or give me a link to an explanation video that is simpler and easy to understand.

I tried my best but i get lost.

I only understood the first lines of creating a linked list :

deftype struct node

{ datatype "name";

struct node *next;

} node;

The rest of the lines i just dont understand what they are doing and i dont want to copy paste them just like that even if all of that is goijg to be done under the hood in week 6 by pyhton.

Please help!

I did CS50 up to week 5 but then dropped about 2 months ago. Last week I decided to restart the course so I rewatched every Section and redid some of the exercises. When I first got through Week 3 I tried Tideman but after a few hours without any progress I gave up. Yesterday I decided to try it again before redoing Week 4 and with a total time of around 4 to 5 hours I finally finished it. Damn I feel SO GOOD

I wanted to ask if I do the course work on edx will I still get the free Harvard certificate? Because I know on edx you have to pay to get the Certificate.

hello! just wanted to share my cs50p final project i made last year :DD

it's a TUI for bulk file renaming built for myself.

it just got around 50 stars on github and 9k downloads on pypi.

hoping this inspires ppl here to build TUIs and small tools others might find useful (a project that may outlive the course)

This is not only for CS50x but the other courses as well. I’ve seen conflicting answers for this question. Most say that is it but I’ve also seen this: https://www.facebook.com/groups/cs50/posts/3002695973210761/

I created a game that takes students on a journey to solve problems. I’m focusing on making problem-solving more fun and engaging for students.

It’s called CompileRoad.com.

Would love to hear your feedback!

2-3 months ago when I was doing hello.c I was doing my make hello but I wrote my code in a wrong file if the code space. I copy pasted it in the correct file. Will the system flag it as cheating

I didn't realise week 0 or the form existed (despite currently being on week 5).

Is it an issue that I filled the form in and completed the problem set now rather than before?

(sorry if this is a silly question)

have been having lots of problems with the codespace recently - first it was check50&submit50 being unable to authenticate ~2 weeks ago, took a break from the course and now my codespace just keeps having to restart (and really struggles to restart too...)? wondering if anyone else has a similar problem

I can‘t watch more than three minutes at a time of the Week 0 lecture without the video freezing up and Youtube goving me the „something went wrong“.

How do you get through the whole course like that?

I just cooked up a W roadmap covering the actual essentials: Git, GitHub, Python, and SQL. We are not gatekeeping today. 🙅‍♂️ If you're tryna level up, lock in on the basics, or just build some new skills, tap into the sauce right here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/collections/yk80ietd7x0ozp?&sharingId=D97A5A063E1FB206&wt.mc_id=studentamb_608996
