#coding challenge

Going to try again! I failed this year due to drama in my life but 2025 will be better. I present my challenge of coding everyday for a year! Even if it's a couple of minutes and it's something simple it counts!

I decided to start the Exercism Coding Challenge #12in23. The goal of this challenge is to experiment with 12 different languages by the end of the year. Each month has a specific theme, such as functional programming or scientific programming. The most interesting part is that you don't need to work on large projects; instead, you can try for each language five different algorithms on the Exercism platform. These algorithms can be simple or more challenging, depending on your choice. The challenge began in February, so I'm already running late and need to catch up. However, since Exercism provides organized tracks for each language and has a large community to help with coding problems, I believe it's a great opportunity to practice, boost my coding skills, and explore a variety of languages. Check it out.

Coding Language Tag Game~!

Tagged by: @xiacodes Thanks girl!!!  ٩(◕‿◕｡)۶ Favourite Coding Languages  (づ ◕‿◕ )づ Starting with an EPIC FAIL: I have no favourite coding language, yet! I work with Java on my daily basis, BUT, as I work with TONS of legacy code, I also have to use: JSP, JQuery, JSF, Struts... they are horrible! I also use HTML (which is not a coding language in its core), JavaScript, and CSS. So, as my days as a Java Developer has this amount of old stuff, I suffer more than enjoy coding at work. I dealt with Python for a place in a Bootcamp challenge, did not make it, but I liked to work with Python a bit, it is so light, no verbose, and fast... but was not enough to proclaim it as my fav. So, dishonour on me, dishonour on my fav language.

hello there and welcome to my first coding challenge! i really wanted to do something fun for the community and this is what i came up with (thank you my love @vitaminholland for helping me out <3)

there are no rules! here i leave you the prompts for this challenge but you're under no obligation to do all of them, and theres no time limit either

any code: code whatever you want but it must contain popups and/or tabs

any code: revamp your first code/the oldest work you haven't revamped yet

any code: code out of the box, try to code a theme or page that's is of a new style

any code: collab with your favorite theme maker

page: do whatever, but no js allowed

theme: anything that counts as grid/masonry/colcade/multi column

page: a page without any images

theme: a theme that must have multiple sidebars

free space

you can tag your works with #southcodeschallenge and i will reblog all of them!

theres no need to reblog this but it would be appreciated

Alright! So here's my improved take on a Sisyphus board game!

The Object of the Game: Get to 100 points by rolling dice.

Things you will need: 2 six-sided dice per Sisyphus, 1 twenty-sided die for The Boulder (or 3 six-sided dice), a deck of 52 playing cards (Jokers optional), and something to write on.

The Rules of the Game:

Anyone who initiates the game ("Hey, anyone wanna play 'Sisyphus'?", "Can I show you this cool dice game?", etc.) MUST play as Sisyphus. It would be rude otherwise. The Boulder shuffles the deck of cards.

Anyone playing as Sisyphus will roll their 2 six-sided dice and write down their result.

The player playing as The Boulder will roll their twenty-sided die (or 3 six-sided dice, if you want a different challenge OR you do not have a twenty-sided die available).

Each Sisyphus guesses the top card of the deck (Ace of Hearts, Two of Clubs, Seven of Spades, etc.), then The Boulder reveals the card and sets it aside.

If a player guesses correctly, they ADD The Boulder's result to their score. If a player only guesses the value (Ace, Two, Three...Jack, Queen, King), they IGNORE The Boulder's result. If a player only guesses the suit correctly (Heart, Spade, Club, Diamond), then they SUBTRACT HALF of The Boulder's result from their score. And if a player guesses incorrectly, they SUBTRACT The Boulder's result from their score.

Repeat steps 2-5 until either the deck runs out of cards or every Sisyphus gets to 100 (whichever comes first).

Notes: If you use Jokers in the deck, they are Wildcards and always count as a correct guess for Sisyphus. After step 5/Before step 2, any Sisyphus can look at, organize, and/or count the already revealed cards. And if you initiate a game of Sisyphus, you only have to be Sisyphus for the first game (if anyone wants to keep playing after that, you can be The Boulder on any subsequent games).

Always remember that suffering can give us meaning in life, and have fun!

Greetings to my fellow Software engineers, programmers, script kiddies and code monkeys! It's that time of year again when we write code for fun, and post about it every day for fake internet points! I have been AFK for most of this year due to *vaguely gestures at everything*, and Apptober is the perfect time to get back into personal projects.

When I first started programming, I wanted to put together a collection of tools, scripts, and libraries that were useful for programmers. Kind of like Batman's utility belt, for for solving common computer tasks. Unfortunately, when I was just starting out I had no idea what kinds of things would be useful, and most of the things I thought of could actually be solved using existing tools that I just needed to learn (grep, find, nc, etc).

Now that I have been writing software professionally for several years, I have come up with a handful of tasks that I hate having to do, and would like to automate. So my Apptober goal is to finally start my Programmer Utility Belt, and add a couple of useful tools to it. I'll be posting all of the code on Github as I go, with summaries of my designs, thoughts, and process here on Tumblr.

Working on a coding project and posting about about it every day for a month is a huge challenge in a normal year, but considering how exhausting 2020 has been, I’m feeling in the mood for a softer, chiller version of Apptober this year.

So for those of you who are feeling that creative autumn maker’s vibe, but are too burnt out to commit to a month-long coding project, I invite you to participate in:

Cozy Apptober

Instead of trying to finish a whole coding project and posting about it everyday as in Apptobers past, try one of these bite-sized options (and tag @apptober please, we wanna hear about it!):

Take a moment to appreciate your past coding projects; implement one of those small TODOs or features that you never got around to the first time, or post a screenshot or two, or write about your fav part

Write a post or two about the kind of coding projects that fill you with joy. Do you love javascript development? Want to make games with Unity? Is there something you’re looking forward to building some day?

Choose a project that interests you and do some research on it, then liveblog post about what you find.

post a pic of your rubber duck debugging buddy

As always, happy coding!
