Looking for a new project in JavaScript that I have not done in Python, I got to thinking about arrays. As JavaScript allows us to generate random numbers and store variables (see “Scissor, Paper, Stone”) it should allow me to also recreate the card game of Blackjack or 21. For more information on Blackjack please … Continue reading BlackJack Part 1 (JavaScript)
One of the earlier programs I wrote in Python was Scissor, Paper, Stone. It’s an old game that most people learn as a child, the premise of which is; There are two (2) players. Each player must make a secret choice from 3 options (Scissor, Paper or Stone) The players reveal their choice at the … Continue reading Scissor, Paper, Stone (JavaScript)
JavaScript can be written in .js (JavaScript) files but can also be written directly into a web browsers JavaScript Console, which is a great way to see quick results from small bits of JavaScript coding. Today I will be looking at enabling the console within two browsers (Safari and Chrome). Safari To use the JavaScript … Continue reading Accessing A Browser’s JavaScript Console
Continuing on with yesterdays JavaScript learnings, and continuing to make notes for myself so that I can later refer to them: JavaScript uses camel-case and it is recommended that camel-case is used for variable names. e.g. firstName, surName, emailAddress. Like Python, JavaScript can concatenate words and letters whilst dealing with strings. Like Python, JavaScript can use … Continue reading JavaScript Basics (Part 2)
I first learned about Javascript back in 2003/2004 whilst completing a University course and then briefly touched upon it during my HNC web module in 2016/2017. Since then I’ve been focusing on Python as my primary language, however I’ve decided to expand and refresh/learn more JavaScript. Like Python, JavaScript can use variables although unlike Python they … Continue reading Finally Taking Time To Learn JavaScript (JavaScript)
The Software Engineering & Agile module of my degree apprenticeship is coming to a close. With that in mind I think I can now share the coding I’ve done for the assignment especially as I needed to store it in a public repository (it’s on my GitHub at https://github.com/geektechdude/qa-se-webapp ) as part of the submissions … Continue reading An Asset WebApp (Flask / Python)
Last autumn (2020) I started a university degree apprenticeship to make up for that fact that I don’t currently have a degree and that I enjoy learning a lot more now than I did in my late teens/early 20s. One of the modules I’m undertaking is Web Application Development, which I’m going to expand on … Continue reading Personal Update, Django and MVC / MTV
I’m currently finishing up some of my “part written” blog posts, and after releasing my post around CPD planning I thought I would get my DevOps post out as well. Over the last few years, I have been learning to be more agile and carry out tasks with a DevOps mindset (or at least try … Continue reading What Is DevOps?
I live in a part of the UK that has been under restrictions since March (with a few unrestricted weeks at the beginning of Summer) due to Coronavirus. When October kicked in my mood went a little bit bleaker as the light summer months had been and gone, darker days where setting in and sadly … Continue reading 30 Day Coding Challenge & Personal Update 2020
My blog posts on C++ so far have looked at the basic data types and arrays, structs, enums and unions. With this blog post I am going to look at the 3 steps used to compile C++ and a brief look at writing “Hello, World!” in C++. C++ is a compiled language, which means that … Continue reading Learning C++: Preprocessor, Compiler, Linker and “Hello, World!”
