Do We Really Need to Learn to Code? - The New Yorker “Learn to Code!” This imperative to program seems to be everywhere these days. Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg recently donated ten million dollars to Code.org, a non-profit that believes that “every student in every school should have the opportunity to learn computer programming,” and that “computer science should be a part of the core curriculum.” So-called “developer boot camps” are popping up everywhere. For second graders, recent college graduates, and people looking for a new career alike, the implication seems to be: Take an intensive course to learn to code and forget about everything else. In the May 29th issue of Newsweek, the tech columnist Kevin Maney argued that all this coding reeducation might soon be unnecessary. The Defense Department, for example, has an ambitious project called MUSE (Mining and Understanding Software Enclaves), which aims to “develop radically [new] approaches for automatically constructing and repairing complex software.” This all sounds great.
Seven things you should know if you're starting out programming | Info | The Guardian Three years ago, my boss asked me to head up the then non-existent data journalism unit at the Times. I'd not written a line of code in my life. As a print journalist, I'd always thought programming was a task undertaken done by awkward guys in loose-fitting T-shirts who rarely saw the sun. (I wasn't altogether wrong about that.) With a little reluctance, I said yes. In the time since, I've learnt a lot about programming. This post is not a coding tutorial. In that spirit, here are some things I've come to learn about programming which I hope may be useful to people thinking about giving programming a try. #1 The 'Logic, not maths' principle One of the greatest misconceptions about programming - certainly at beginner levels - is that it is full of maths. Logic, on the other hand, abounds. #2 The 'Catch a shooting star' principle The problem with processes is that, unless you do something with their outcomes, they just disappear into thin air. #3 The 'Dictionary' principle Imagine a pizzeria.
A PHP bootstrapping crash course As your PHP applications become larger and more complex, managing dependencies via a list of includes becomes a chore, and it's also seen as bad practice today. In addition, many of the scripts only include business logic (i.e. they don't render HTML, and shouldn't be accessed directly). Once you've finished this crash course in bootstrapping, you'll have a basic -- yet powerful -- modern application template with simplified script dependency built in. You can download the full source code for this tutorial here. What is bootstrapping? Bootstrapping refers to the process of loading the environment a program (or a script, in the case of PHP) needs to operate. In many PHP systems you might have encountered, such as WordPress or PHPMyAdmin, requests are handled ad-hoc, sometimes allowing direct access to scripts, sometimes funneling requests to an index.php file. Bootstrapping alleviates those problems in the following fashion: Bootstrapping in the real world Loading components Running the app
How to Build a Functional Login Form with PHP + Twitter Bootstrap For this tutorial, we’ll look at building a completely functional login + registration system with a design based off of Twitter Bootstrap. The login form will pop out as a dropdown from the navbar and maintain responsiveness when scaled down. Setting up with SQL + PHP is easy. Let’s take a look at how it all works! View Demo | Download Source Files Configuration For security purposes, you’ll want to have your user data stored with MySQL. When the table is successfully set up, create the first file, config.php, with this PHP code: This file establishes a connection to the database we’ve just created and sets a few options. User Registration From here, we can design the registration and login processes with Bootstrap and some functional PHP. First, this script calls the database connection, then it ensures all form fields are filled, checks if the username is unique, and adds security measures to the password.
