UofT or Waterloo for CompSci ?

As I am working through a computer science degree through correspondence on a part time basis, it is coming very clear that my degree is only going to provide a foundation for my education and that continuing to learn after my degree is finished is going to be critical.
I'm curious about what kinds of things people do to keep up with the latest in the field.

If it's research, then, like with any field, read recently published papers. Some organizations, like IEEE, also put out publications that summarize recently published research. If it's in-demand skills and programming languages, just scan through job postings. If you want to keep your programming skills sharp, then I suggest joining an open-source project. Just be up-front about what you can contribute if you go that route. Just curious: what did you do before?

just a lil quesiton, yeah, I' doing it, although it's gonna be a long way
Can I host a http server, then turn on TOR and navigate back to my server using my ip? doesn't tor mess with it?
I ask this because I wanna test if I can crack my ip through tor

Hey guys so I just given an Ipad and figure I should jailbreak it, been looking online at the various options to jailbreak as well as pros and cons but I figure I should ask you guys since you generally give me good advice.

What should I use to jailbreak and anything I should be aware of? Also a good place to source 3rd party apps?

Thoughts on this budget gaming setup?

Can anybody explain why this is giving me no errors, but doesn't fill my array properly? If I use the currently commented out section it works just fine, but this is for a school assignment and I'm suppose to use a function to do this, and I'm not understanding why my array is getting filled with all 0's.

I'm a sophomore in college and I'm trying to pick out what are the best languages to learn in this day. I've seen the following two videos on the subject:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LR8fQiskYII [Embed]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvWTnIoQZj4 [Embed]

Is this information still relevant?

I'd really like to know what /n/ thinks are the five programming languages "you need to know", specifically for getting a job in the field in this day and age. So far i've had a semester of Java, and three of C and i'm thinking about moving on to either C++ or C#, but i'd also like to inevitably work with some of the more popular scripting languages.

I'd really like to know what languages you guys have learned/recommend learning so that I can make a better decision, and not waste my time/money.

Hi guys, I just discovered /pr/ and I think this is really great. Im a first year I.T. student,and right now we're at Netbeans Java in our programming class. Im really a beginner and before taking college I have no idea about programming but I really like it.
Can you give any tips and advice on how to be a great programmer and how can I improve my logic skills.

I'm working on a Windows Forms Application to run a Pomodoro Timer window. I'm trying to work out why I'm getting this error thrown, here's the deets:
In Form.Designer I have a label that displays label1.Text="Circuit "+ circuitCounter + " Session " + sessionCounter;
circuitCounter and sessionCounter are declared above the initializer but still within the Form1 class.
I'm thrown the error "The variable 'circuitCounter' is either undeclared or was never assigned" and I can't understand why.
Here is the relevant code for the Form1 class:
namespace Pomodoro_Timer
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
//set timers
static System.Timers.Timer sessionTimer= new System.Timers.Timer (1500000);
static System.Timers.Timer sbTimer = new System.Timers.Timer(300000);
static System.Timers.Timer lbTimer = new System.Timers.Timer(900000);

//declare counters

I know the basics of Java after taking an intro summer class, I want to learn more. I've been trying to do the USACO's training course, but its hard when I get stuck and don't know how to move forward. What are resources where learning Java and other languages is not just a tutorial but where I can get help from other people learning?

I'm applying for a QA position at a company because I am not that interested in development and have gotten let go from my last 2 jobs. As an assessment they want me to provide "a test case or cases" for a stack of post it notes.

I've been googling around looking at test case tutorials and examples and i just wanted another's opinion about how many cases i should be thinking of in this situation, and the general goal of each case. I mean how many things can you accomplish? Make sure the post its are there, make sure they peel, make sure they stick, make sure you can write on them? thats 4.

I don't have much QA experience (entry level position) but I can't imagine having more than 2 or 3 cases for a stack of post its. Any advice would be appreciated

I'm currently taking a term off from studying comp engineering, I was skipping classes and missing assignments and needed time off to get my head back in the game.
Anyways, I figure rather than trying to study course material on my own time, since I'm going to have to redo that stuff when I go back to school I should study something that interests me a bit more. So I'm starting to try and learn 3d graphics using openGL. I've been starting to learn using arcsynthesis tutorials, but I'm wondering if anyone could recommend some good podcasts for either openGL or just general tips on productivity and such for software developers? I find unless I do something programming related daily I forget things so damn quickly, so I want to make sure that when I'm not at my laptop studying, I can still study / keep my brain working.

Hey guys! I was wondering if anyone here new PHP and could help me out with my problem.

I'm writing a program that will read from one file and then write three separate files.

The file I'm reading from is this:
Sally F 35 A
Donald M 38 A
Susan F 22 N
Richard M 21 N
Dave M 39 A

What that should look like in the end is this:

I'm new to matlab and I was wondering if people could help me with some fairly simple stuff I need to do for a project.

I basically need to run a loop which runs a different pre-written program, and I also need to get it to print out a picture for each result, ideally saved as a bitmap rather than opening it in an output window.

Thanks for any help.

so I'm writing a candy machine program in c++ for a class. I've got it to give the correct amount of change, but the assignment also requires that I display the coin change (quarters, dimes, nickels. would put dollars but I made to where the machine won't accept 5's or weird change, so there's no way to be able to get back more than 95 cents)

I'm pretty sure the first step here is to multiply it by 100 and change it to an integer and then work with it. after that I'm stumped.

not looking for a code answer, rather a logic hint

TL;DR recap:
Retarded feminist writes an article filled with gibberish on how a feminist programming language is needed: http://www.hastac.org/blogs/ari-schlesinger/2013/11/26/feminism-and-programming-languages
/pol/ and /g/ commences to establish the Feminist Software Foundation (a joke to the actual Free Software Foundation), and starts writing the C-plus-Equality lanuage on GitHub.
/g/ contributed the actual code, /pol/ contributed the specification.
Twitter SJWs got hold of it, GitHub bans the repo.

The project then moved to BitBucket. A website FeministSoftwareFoundation.org is then made.

Hi, I am trying to a function in R and I am pretty new to this.

I have a matrix like this ( this is the code for the matrix):

k2=c(3,6,4,NA,NA,NA,NA)
k3=c(2,7,5,NA,NA,NA,NA)
k4=c(7,9,5,2,1,8,12)

df2=data.frame(k2,k3,k4)
m2=as.matrix(df2)
m2


The main idea to find a value in the k4 row. If the value is not the same for that row, the function should check the values in the same row, and go to these rows instead to find the value.So if the value is less than val in [1,k4] then it should take the second column value in the same row ([1,k3])as the row number to go for and check the value in the third column in that row [value of row,3]. If the value is the greater, itshould do same thing as before, but with [1,k2]. And if the value is again not the needed one it should again check and repeat the same procedure for that next row until it gets the match.
