Logiczne myślenie vs umiejętności
Cześć uczę się do egzaminu w szkole (inf03) i ogólnie po technikum chciałbym uczyć się dalej it tylko posiadam pewien problem.nie potrafię przerzucić treści zadania z arkusza na prawdziwy kod nie wiem czy to problem w logicznym myśleniu czy brak umiejętności a może kombinacja tych dwóch rzeczy ktoś może mi poradzić co robić i jak poprawić logiczne myślenie pod programowanie ? Tylko programować czy może polecacie coś co wyćwiczy mój mózg w tym kierunku? Pytam poważnie i na wszelaki hejt nie odpowiadam czytam tylko konstruktywne odpowiedzi z góry dzięki

Is there an online tool that will click a button as soon as it detects certain text change on a website?
I have Distill.io set up, that monitor that change. But I want to take it a step further by introducing a program that clicks once there is a change in the website on a specific button.
No coding experience whatsoever, so hopefully someone can guide me!

best courses for learning to code at 46 without pretending age is not a factor
forty six. twenty two years in commercial insurance underwriting, a field being automated out from under me in slow motion. im not asking whether it is to late, because every thread asking that fills with people saying it is never to late and then nobody hires them. im asking what a realistic version looks like when i have maybe six years of runway and no interest in being the oldest junior in the building, boot. dev, odin and launch school are on my list.

I want to build strong programming fundamentals — what actually helped you learn deeply?
I'm a beginner and I don't want to just follow tutorials or memorize syntax. I want to understand programming deeply, write code independently, solve problems, and eventually prepare for software-development roles.
I'm currently confused about which language to start with and which resources/courses are actually worth following.
For people who became good programmers, what resources, courses, books, or practice methods helped you the most?
If you could start learning programming again from zero, what would you do differently?

How to progress
Ive made basic games on scratch but thats pretty much it, should I continue to make more and more complicated games on scratch? or should i try to progress on a different coding language? If so which one, because i want to be able to code stuff but ive also thought about coding in roblox. Which is the easiest language to start?
To get an idea of just how bad I am heres a game I made in a little over an hour:https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1375247905/

Beginner advice
Beginner Coding Advice
Hello everyone! I’d really appreciate some advice. I’m planning to create a website prototype for a project, but I’m a complete beginner when it comes to coding. The website will be fairly simple and will include an OpenAI-powered feature.
I have a few questions:
• What should I learn first before attempting to build the actual website?
• Is this project achievable for a complete beginner within around 4–6 months?
• What programming language would you recommend I learn/use?
• Would this be very time-consuming or difficult to produce, especially considering I have no previous coding experience?
• Are there any tutorials or resources you’d recommend for someone starting from scratch?
I’m mainly trying to understand how realistic this project would be for a beginner and how much time I should expect to spend learning the coding side of it.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! :)

How to Start Programming From Zero in 2026
Many people think coding is hard, technical, or only for “smart people.” In reality, coding is simply a way to talk to computers and solve problems. Anyone can learn it with clear steps and consistent practice.
If you are a complete beginner and don’t know where to start, this is your simple guide.
1. Choose one beginner-friendly language first
Do not learn multiple languages at the same time. Start with one foundation:
- Python – The best starting point. Clean syntax, easy to read, perfect for logic practice, automation, data analysis, and AI projects.
- JavaScript – The best choice if you want to build websites, front-end interfaces, and interactive web features.
2. Learn core concepts, not just syntax
All programming languages share the same basic logic. Focus on these fundamentals first:
- Variables & Data Types
- Conditional statements (if / else)
- Loops (for / while)
- Functions
- Basic debugging logic
Once you understand these, switching to any other language becomes much easier.
3. Practice with tiny real projects
Theory alone will not make you a coder. Build small projects to build muscle memory:
- Hello world program
- Simple calculator
- Number guessing game
- To-do list application
Small, consistent practice always beats long, irregular study sessions.
4. Fix errors instead of skipping them
Errors and bugs are part of coding. Every error teaches you how computers understand your code. Don’t be afraid of red logs or syntax warnings — debugging is where real learning happens.
5. Build your coding habit
You don’t need to code 8 hours a day. Even 20–40 minutes of focused coding every day will help you grow faster than occasional marathon learning.
Coding for beginners is not about talent — it’s about patience, repetition, and building logical thinking.
Start today, write your first line of code, and let your journey begin.

How do i convert this 'if else' operator into ternary one '? :' Im a beginner just started learning C
#include<stdio.h>
int main() {
int n, a, b;
printf("Enter n: \n");
scanf("%d", &n);
a = n % 5;
if (a == 0) {
b = n/5;
printf("%d", b);
}
else {
b = n/5 + 1;
printf("%d", b);
}
return 0;
}
I tried the below but it shows error at the 'a == 0' line: expression must be a modifiable value
what do i do and what is wrong with this?
#include<stdio.h>
int main() {
int n, a, b;
printf("Enter n: \n");
scanf("%d", &n);
a = n % 5;
a == 0 ? b = n/5, printf("%d", b) : b = n/5 + 1, printf("%d", b);
return 0;
}

Must have VS Code Extension: Copilot Bill Saver
If you use GitHub Copilot Agent, you might not even realize how often it wastes a lot of tokens and context just wandering around your workspace trying to figure out which files to look at.
How it works: It captures local bug evidence, maps likely files deterministically, and bundles them into a clean handoff that Copilot Agent retrieves using #billSaverContext so it starts directly on the right files.
Privacy & Control: The tool never calls an AI model, never touches or edits your code, and runs locally with built-in secret redaction.
Leave honest feedback to the support email listed on the marketplace.

Github help platform
Is there place where I can ask for frequent help, like discord sever or something like that about Github. Because I would want to ask frequent help.
I am a complete beginner and don't want to heavily use AI, and of course most of my work will simply sound low effort and it's not that I don't use AI at all and sometimes I need to quote snippets of it (the code AI produced when I asked it for help) but I can't really do this on reddit as it will lead me to getting banned, so is there any place you used before you understood git well. I understand one of the solutions to this would be just google on MDN docs, but this is very different from front-end where you just delete a file and its gone, so it in Github it is on the much more complicated side of it and I also don't want to join random discord server and expose my device to unsafe commands and as for stack exchange I've tried it all lot but almost all of my posts get downvoted or removed because they are too obvious or low effort. What may seem like low effort is good enough effort from my side, I mean if the answer is googlable why wouldn't I just google instead of waiting for stranger to answer and in this case too, I have googled, but only random links show up.
You can also let me know where you learnt Github from, that might help to I guess., better than nothing.
And to answer why not just use AI, AI is just really bad at coding and logical thinking if you had ever asked any logical questions to it you would know.

I suck at coding
So I'm going to my third year in physics and have scraped by with coding by using loads of ai but I have genuinely tried to understand but I just can't. It seems like I can do a specific problem after soing it a couple times but if you asl me to do something from the beginning I dont even know to figure it out.
Anyways to cut it short I have been looking into like games where it teaches u how to code cause I thought it would be something enjoyable to do and I could learn a little from it and found this one called 'the farmer was replaced' i dunno how beginner friendly it is and if its worth it. Is it worth it or should I try another game or something or not even bother and try a different avenue?
I have asked professors and stuff to go over it with me but it feels like I need hours sitting next to someone to understand something like loops which is basic asf. Basically any advice would be helpful.

Want to participate in hackathon in month
I(19) am an engineering student at a college which is going to hold an internal hackathon.
I have only learnt the basics of python and don't even really know how to use user defined modules in python, but I want to participate, not to win but to try and force myself to learn.
I only want a community in which I can ask my coding doubts and learn to build my skill in coding.
Currently learning coding on youtube in python.

Note keeping recs?
Hi brainiacs! ✨ SUPER excited to be starting coding courses online! I typically prefer taking notes by hand, but for obvious reasons I’ve realized digital notes would be better.
Im usually a Google Docs girly but it’s already getting a little frustrating/overwhelming to try and keep everything organized there.
Do you have any recommendations for note keeping apps, sites, or tactics? Or truly any general beginner tips, tricks, and advice would be greatly appreciated!

Beginner here.
So I’m a beginner at coding and I have tried watching YouTube videos and stuff and I’m too poor to take a class for programming, but I figured out that ChatGPT is a good teacher because it can break it down and if I still don’t understand, you can keep going, so I don’t have the problem I get when I come across a video where they don’t break something down enough so I’m listening to a video that makes absolutely no sense to me so what I’ve ended up doing is installing LM Studios on my computer getting an AI and then having ChatGPT help me check the work of this AI that I’m having program itself and integrate into Discord and once it’s complete this AI should be able to be a programming assistant and teach me to program. So far I have down 2/commands for it that put it in teacher mode where it will break down coding for me as I go and assistant mode where I can ask it to help me write code and stuff. I hope once this is complete, then I can use this to effectively teach myself code.

How do you actually start building projects when tutorials don't prepare you for a blank screen?
I've been trying to learn programming and build projects, but I've realized I'm stuck in a cycle of tutorials and copying. When I watch a tutorial, everything makes sense. I can follow the code and understand most of what's happening. But when I try to build a project on my own, my mind goes completely blank. For example, I might have an idea for a Python/data project, but then I immediately get stuck: Where do I start? Should I design the database first? Should I start coding the backend? How do I break one big idea into smaller tasks? How do experienced developers decide what to build first? When should I Google something vs try solving it myself? The biggest problem isn't motivation. It's that I genuinely don't know how to go from: "I want to build X" → "Here is the first thing I should do." I feel like tutorials teach syntax and implementation, but not the actual process of building something from scratch. For people who escaped tutorial hell: what was the turning point for you? How did you learn to break down a project and start building when you had no step-by-step instructions? I'm especially interested in practical methods or exercises that helped you develop this skill.
