  1. C and C++ are the major low level languages in use right now, and there's assembly of course.
  2. If you installed windows updates after installing windows then you may have installed the November update which makes a windows.old file.
  3. Objective-C is older, while Swift is newer. Use Swift. For websites, use HTML(5), CSS(3), and Javascript. I'm not a mac guy so I don't know what to say for IDE's/text editors you should use for programming. My friend uses brackets and says that it's decent, but I would do more research.
  4. Get a better CPU first, then talk about GPU's
  5. Give us your specs first, and tell us what you're using your PC for.
  6. Are you buying prebuilt PC's? If so, they'll already have Windows installed and you'll be able to upgrade to Windows 10 for free.
  7. For C++ there are many options. There's Visual Studio, Eclipse, Code:Blocks, etc. For Java most people use Eclipse. These are IDE's that should get the job done.
  8. It's hard to find apps for programming on your phone, especially iOS. I doubt that there is a decent Java app, and if there is, it's probably paid.
  9. Python is a great beginner language, and it can scale up as you learn more and want to make more complex scripts
  10. Motorola Moto G maybe? Any OnePlus device?
  11. ...that is not necessarily true. I have an FX-6300 and I get what you're saying, but if you have a GPU better than a GTX 960 you'll definitely want to go intel (for gaming).
  12. What I was trying to do is demonstrate the code you can use in your program to achieve your desired result. I was attempting to give you the tools to solve your problem. Like @madknight3 said, you can ask the user to specify the length and then use what I showed you. I didn't want to just do it for you, because that ruins the fun of coding
  13. My current laptop is 3 years old and that's probably the oldest for me
  14. I had adblock on and there were ads all over the page...but it looks nice.
  15. Using a text editor and a separate compiler is probably best when you're just learning a language because a text editor won't "code for you." Visual Studio has amazing features and it's an awesome IDE but if you're a newbie it's almost writing the code for you. IDE's are useful for when you've become fairly fluent in a programming language and autocomplete saves time instead of saving you from learning.
  16. A string in python is just a list of characters. You can use this to achieve your desired result. my_string = 'bananas' #Prints the first character in my_string (0 is the index of the first character, computers start counting at 0)print(my_string[0]) #Prints the first two characters in my_string (this will not include the character at index 2, it will return the characters at index 0 and index 1)print(my_string[:2]) #Prints the last two characters in my_string#("len()" returns the length of a string if you count starting at 1, which is not how computers normally count; this does include the character at index 5)print(my_string[len(my_string) - 2:])
  17. What do you mean by putting a limit on the characters you use? In the user input? In the response from the program?
  18. I'm really hoping that Apple packs a bigger battery into the iPhone 7, because that's the phone I'm probably gonna get.
