Im leaning computer science in college, just entered the course. Classes already suck. I was wondering if there was a better way to learn online, even better if free, some site or a program or a book maybe, i guess what im asking is whats the best way to learn programming ? how did you learn it ? thanks in advance

Yes, how familiar are you with GNU/Linux?

What I would recommend is to install emacs, use the essentials, and make some web apps with a lisp language, I am fond of Clojure (JVM hostage). You can use 3 well made projects (more or less) and a good interviewing demanor for your entry level job. School is overrated for code monkey jobs

freecodecamp is good thing to along same lines of my last comment entry level code monkey, the thing is many recruiters and hiring manager probably seen all those projects by now (its been in development since 2014) so do some projects not necessary the ones they suggest, or not only those

It depends from your skills. For example, many starting to learn programming with python or java. I am beginner in programming so use help from some friends and bought some hosting service here https://www.namecheap.com/hosting/shared/ I created online store.

VMs are great for practicing low-level programming without worrying about doing anything too stupid with your memory or hardware: for instance, if you're teaching yourself systems programming or kernels.

Also, VMs (and container systems) are in vogue because they allow for a bit more control in network management and firewalling. Consider this shitty diagram I just made of a hypothetical webapp, which is theoretically more secure (with firewalls and a well-written API) than putting it all in one stack.

Hey, if you are interested in learning how to program for free and watch me make bots and exploits, tune into my stream on youtube, my name is Merlins Goat, I am like the only black guy on YT showing you how to program bots using python, selenium, vpns. etc

This is my way, get inspired.

Step 1:

> I choose a language I want to learn
> I take a project made in this language
> I open a file of this project
> I come across codes I don't understand
> I'm researching and studying these codes until I understand them

step 2:

> I use the knowledge acquired to start my own project
> I think about functions that I would not be able to implement due to lack of knowledge
> I look for knowledge for the implementation
> I finish the project
> back to step 2

2.1

> I'm looking for a book about the technology I want to learn
> I look for items of things I don't understand
> read
> I understand what is being said
> I go back to step 2, but using the new knowledge learned

It is not necessary to strictly follow what I said, just adapt it to your own way.

Good luck.

P.S. I don't speak english fluently, forgive the grammar mistakes.
