yet not one reference to any mathmatics at all....

alegbra

trigonometry

hell even grade school 1+1 math

all coding is from machine interpretation of on or off or 1 or 0

when you "add" series of 1 or 0 you get resulting function

To be honest, that's more algorythmic not programming.  I've seen a lot of programmers who have never achieved a high school degree but can still work effectively because of experience.  They learn things from others, and develop algorythmic thinking as they go a long.  And as a bonus, they understand math better!  I think math is useful if you need it TO develop a program, but programming on it's own requires only basic maths.

well good luck

as math is very important skill to have

very overlooked skill

very very overlooked

half the "programmers" i have met i would never have hired

ever

poor skills and next to no creativity

their great at memorizing but horrible at thinking

thus their problem solving skills are non existent

Well you bring up good points, but after all it is just a beginning tutorial in basic python website programming.

It depends but in general... No it's really not.

 

The mindset that mathematics is a critical bar to entry is draconian and highly obsolete in today's industry.

That made me giggle :D

 

So all this time and my career was really built on lies and other people's hard work? And I don't have any right to any of the skills that I've learned? I feel so bad for being discalculate. I should give up my luxurious and very decadent lifestyle and go back to driving vans for a living xD

no please do not operate vehicle as this takes math to figure out stopping distances and pedal pressure levels and all must be timed correctly

Maybe stacking shelves then? Or looking after nutters in a mental hospital? Oh I know... Flipping burgers for a living!

A free eBook I highly recommend for C# is "C# Programming - Yellow Book" which you can find here.

A few good IDE's would be Atom and Aptana Studio, both of which can be used for a broad spectrum of languages.

Atom: https://atom.io/

Aptana: http://www.aptana.com/

 

Side note: Atom can also be used on Linux, so that's a plus.

I use monodevelop and visual studio.

 

Since I am to lazy to put something interesting here, I will put everything, but slightly abbreviated. Here is everything:

also, some questions to make you wonder about life:

I'd also recommend FreeCodeCamp for general resources and atom as a text editor

Can we update the OP to include Golang resources as well? I was going to ask on the forum what the best IDE's for Golang would be, but I figure other people might to know as well. Tutorials for Golang are on the Golang docs page, so that can also be linked for reference.

https://www.raywenderlich.com for iOS, Android, Swift, and Kotlin tutorials.  They have some Unity and Unreal Engine stuff too, but I haven't gone through those much, as I prefer Godot for game development.  Disclaimer: I work for them but I used the site to learn iOS programming before I got hired.
