So, When I Was Doing My Thesis On Whether Or Not Fanfiction Should Be Considered A Legitimate Genre Of

The honest confession :)

How I call my friends: myFriends();

me: starts looking at material for my programming languages class next quarter

me: stops looking

The O(1) solution to any problem is to stop trying

People think coding / debugging means highly concentrated furious typing, but mostly it’s just angrily staring at the screen for long periods of time waiting for the problem to solve itself

If you’re up really late studying for finals, try swapping your contact solution with coffee for a quick pick-me-up.

hey reblog this if you think girls can study and excel in computer science

How do you make the jump from like, completing CodeAcademy lessons to actually conceptualizing and building a program?

Honestly, it is really tough. People seem to make it sound like it’s a lot easier but if you’re doing it by yourself, you really have to work at it!

What you could start doing is drafting up a thought in your head from any idea; say you think "I have this problem and it could be solved this way”. Transform that thought into a solution and use it! It’s going to be a bit tougher since CodeAcademy can’t teach you the logic of everything, but it will start to get easier and easier as time goes on! 

I would also suggest maybe looking at school websites for Computer Science, as a lot CS teachers will post their assignments on a website and you can use those to base projects off of!
