My "highschool" teacher always said that girls sucked a maths and that there was really no point in trying to get into it, because girl brains couldn't grasp those concepts. And eventho I knew the man was full of sh*t I must have made in impact on me somehow because I never looked into it after I left school.
Anyway, so I had been thinking about wanting to understand computer language, of and on for the last couple of years, but found it kinda daunting ;) , most guys I know that can program are so frelling smart if I ask them something, within 2 words all I hear is "blablablabla" . So when someone directed me towards a tutorial online I jumped on it, and started reading and writing. A. found an old schoolbook on C and gave me that and now I read and write all day long :).
It is kinda cool that I DO understand the concepts and the math, but I have problems with naming the different parts of the program, I guess I need someone who can tell me in layman's terms (probably like 10.000 times and THEN I might get it) because the book assumes that you get it right away, and well I don't. Mainly because I don't have people to help me while I read it, so I kinda name them myself (and if I frell that up, well it gets stuck in my mind "wrong" ). Having said that I like doing this alone because I probably make huge ass mistakes and look like a 5 year old learning to read ;)
I already wrote some (really) simple programs, like the "hello world" one, a for loop and a while loop, it was kinda cool I got the while loop to work, cause I made it all by myself.
Lemme copy and paste it:
# include
# include
int main (void)
{
int x=1 ;
while (x <=100)
{
if (x % 3==0 && x % 5==0)
{
printf ("FizzBuzz \n");
}
else if (x % 3 ==0)
{
printf ("Fizz \n");
}
else if (x % 5 ==0)
{
printf ("Buzz \n");
}
else
{
printf (" %d \n", x);
}
x++;
}
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
