I did that shit on DOS when I was six years old.

Comment on: Cybersecurity Q&A

My CS and programming classes are wrecking my face right now, so I'll try to get in on this. Not this weekend, but next time.

Comment on: I could use a bit of help with an assignment for class.

If you're just starting, you probably won't be dealing with GUI applications any time soon.

Might be part of my confusion! I keep visualizing these as very basic Win98 looking GUI programs as I go through the steps. Also the last time I coded anything at all was farting around with HTML on an Angelfire site...

Oh hey cool, I had it half right then. I did step 2 last night before seeing your response, but I did not do step 1. Thanks a ton! It's clicking a bit now (I was stressing out last night). I'm trying so hard to maintain this GPA that I think I'm psyching myself out on things.

Have you covered break/continue? Or "do while" loops as opposed to while loops?

Not yet. We're only into the second chapter of the textbook. It's just...not a great textbook... I sent a shot of one of the pages to my friend and he was confused as to why they were even going on about some of the things they were.

I find it difficult to get into someone else's head quite often, so following the logic of why the writers wrote this the way they did is tough for me. It's kind of unintuitive. Why a negative value to exit rather than an exit button, or even an exit command if this were a command line program? Weird. That's not the scope of the assignment though, so I shouldn't dwell on it, lol.

I appreciate the assistance. Looks like I was on the right track, but I mainly wasn't sure if I had to write an additional module for test 3.

Comment on: Tech jobs not invaded by leftists?

I'm looking to get into the field myself, and this has been a concern of mine. I'll probably just bite the bullet for a few years, then start my own business and not fuck around with "diversity" jack shit.

Comment on: Report: 80's kids started programming at an earlier age than today's millennials

I had some Basic cartridges for my Atari 800, but fuck that shit man I had RIVER RAID and Demon Attack! Maybe I would have been more interested if dad coded, but he always did hardware. I remember him building his own boards back in the day.

Comment on: A conservative city for programmers?

Oddly enough, Peachtree City has a thriving IT market.
