Why is CS so hard? I honestly can't comprehend anything

take some breadth subjects?

>>56158665
humanities?

Nice reddit filename.

it's an imgur filename

>can't comprehend
Bullshit, you're just too lazy to comprehend.
If you truly want to comprehend something, try to explain it in your own words, figure out what you're missing, and then look up that thing in particular.

That's a nice looking fucking cat.

I'm talking about translating a problem categorically into mathematical language.

>>56158817
What do you mean by that?

>>56158828
He means he can't figure out how to create solutions to problems with out someone to tell him what steps to take I would imagine.

>>56158828
he means he potato

or he dindu

probably both.

In that case, OP should get used to analytical thinking.
Ask questions, figure out what data you have and what you could probably do with it, develop ideas and don't discard them until you can prove they're wrong/inefficient.
It's not like smart people just shit out bright ideas immediately after reading a problem.

Don't worry OP. You will scrape past first year, not have the fundamentals, easily pass 2 - 4 with help from your math study group and be part of the 80% of programmers who can't complete fizzbuzz.

>>56159012
What is the actual number of people who can't fizzbuzz?

>>56159012
I wrote a thesis in CS and I can't pass it

Started the second year for computer engineering.
-Pro tip:
-> Learn the basics very well it will make it soo much easier later.
-> Put some effort in math it's not that bad. Make sure to understand it and not put it for later.
...
rest is easy

Hey guys analytically think this for me please.

Say I have a two types of phone numbers. One with 10 digits, the other with 11. This is excluding all access codes like +1 for instance.

Now, I have an algorithm that removes access codes and non-number characters. What it does is normalize to 10 characters, just cuts off anything >10 from the beginning.

In this scenario, if a country uses 11 digit phone number instead of 10 digit. I now have an issue where the first number is not recorded in the number, thus I could end up displaying the wrong user since I identify with phone number.

How many errors is this? It would look like this:


AXX XXXX XXXX, only the last 10 numbers would be recorded accurately, so if two people have the same number from 10 digits down, (and the 11th A in the example would uniquely identify them) it would show each other.

Is it just 10 errors? Or is it like, 10*10! Or some shit? I have no clue, I feel like it's a lot of errors cause since its from the start it just ricochets down.

>can't comprehend anything past programming itself.
This is the epitome of the CS degree meme.

>Doesnt work because my solution's "else" isnt tied to both the 3 and 5 conditional, just the 5
Well at least I'd be able to tell them why I failed the interview.

Did you ever look at AI source code? I challenge you to say what it does.

>>56160374
The difficulty is in the mathematics. If you don't know the math then you won't understand things like advanced AI, machine learning etc

I think it's fine if you don't shit out an absolutely perfect solution on your first try. Programming is one of the few areas where it tends to be extremely easy to run a test, and correct your mistakes if necessary. No one consistently shits out perfect code their first try, and that's why debugging is a thing.

If you looked at your output, noticed it was wrong, and were able to immediately see the bug in the conditional that caused the error, you're probably ok.

Producing bugless code is a daunting task which takes more men hours then shitting out the monkey labor code itself.

>>56159625
Assuming all phone numbers are in use, you have 10 different users that fit a particular 10 digit partial-number, since there is 1 digit of ambiguity.

Since there are 10 different possibilities for each recorded number in each instance, you would only guess right 10% of the time, and you would have an error the other 90% of the time.

Thank god that was the entirety of my under grad experience, then. I have trouble remembering the specifics of a lot of computer syntax, especially if I haven't programmed in a month or so.

Looks like my cat, but mine has grey fur patterns.
The brown/orange in OP's pic looks shooped.

If you want to become a code monkey, you should have gone to a coding boot camp. Lots of women there too.

Maybe stop the epic memes:^) and start to learn shit

Study thoroughly, AI type algorithms are coming into their prime with "Big Data".
