i actually got a degree in infosys

to answer your second question though, compsci is pretty much a subset of math. you'll probably get on a computer and code in an IDE in about 1/2 of your classes depending on your school. you'll probably be surprised by how much of it is pen and paper problem solving, so don't be surprised by something like discrete math or data structures.

that said, get comfy with discrete structures. math that often gets applied in everyday CS doesn't have much to do with continuous maths (algebra, calculus, etc.) but rather discrete math (logic, combinatorics, trees, etc.).

thanks for the help

i finally got my syllabus for the first CS course im taking and the textbook is Python for Everyone, so im guessing thats what the entire course will be revolved around

do you have any experience with python or know what its mainly used for?

Anyone do bug bounties?

Yes, do you have questions?

python is pretty much used for everything. it's probably the most accessible mainstream language out there.

if programming languages were cars python would be a brand new and reliable commuter sedan. it'll get you from point-a-to-b for every day usage. that said, it's an interpreted general purpose language (you'll learn about the differences later) so it's not the fastest thing out there, don't expect to develop games on it.

you can develop applications, web applications, scripts, etc. and it has a heavy presence in data science.

ngl my intro to operating systems class is confusing as s*** could be because its all on powerpoint slides on zoom but i just cant seem to focus and grasp the damn concepts

any tips for getting started?

Do you have any experience with vulnerabilities or exploitation? You should pick one exploit learn everything you can about it and look for it on every program. After you feel like you mastered that exploit move on to another one.

Don’t go in thinking your gonna be making mad money or anything it should probably be a side activity at first, you may go weeks or months without finding anything

Anyone have any portfolio ideas? I dont know how complicated or simple to make them. I feel like im overthinking this

iinnnnn.

Find some everyday tasks you’re doing & try to automate them.

Employers will like that for sure

thanks for the reply

not the fastest is kinda an understatement. It's actually very slow haha.

I need a python coding buddy? Anyone decent in the language to help me out?

yo!

Hey man! I’m trying to complete MITs open course on intro to programming using python. What’s a good app to keep in touch with you whenever I’m in a rut??

Definitely Discord, Thunder#9619.
I remember starting that course a while back, really good stuff in there.

I need a new laptop,and budget is running tight during rona.
Is this gonna be good enough to last me in college?(comp sci ofc)
I need advice if anyone would let me know,thanks in advance.
Gonna be using it only for zoom,web browsing and school tasks such as programming.

Alright I’ll join up

3.6 ghz of processing power off an i5 and 8gb of ram is more than enough. You’re solid.

God bless you man thanks

What's your thoughts about this course udemy.com/course/java-the-complete-java-developer-course
