The Bastards Book of Photography by Dan Nguyen. Coding for Journalists 101: Go from knowing nothing to scraping Web pages. In an hour. Hopefully. | Dan Nguyen's blog. UPDATE (12/1/2011): Ever since writing this guide, I’ve wanted to put together a site that is focused both on teaching the basics of programming and showing examples of practical code. I finally got around to making it: The Bastards Book of Ruby. I’ve since learned that trying to teach the fundamentals of programming in one blog post is completely dumb. Also, I hope I’m a better coder now than I was a year and a half ago when I first wrote this guide. Check it out and let me know what you think: Who this post is for His Girl Friday You’re a journalist who knows almost nothing about computers beyond using them to connect to the Internets, email, and cheat on Facebook scrabble.
Anyone who has taken a semester of computer science will scoff at how I’ve simplified even the basic fundamentals of programming…and they’d be right…but my goal is just to get you into the basics to write some useful code immediately. Thankfully, coding is something that provides immediate success and failure. Tags. Learn to code.
