Does anyone have a good recommendation for ‘relearning’ basic programming practices when you don’t have much free time? I code every now and then but my workflow for coding/debugging is terrible now that I’ve essentially forgotten basic concepts like stacks, breakpoints, unit tests, etc. embarrassed to say I use print commands far too often.
- wirthjason 5y agoI don’t know the context of your situation but use an IDE with an graphical debugger. Eg. PyCharm. Then you can easily enter a breakpoint and inspect your code, move up and down the stack to see how you arrived at the point, etc.
- oatflatwhite 5y agoThere is no need to be embarrassed about using print commands for debugging. Tried and true method for many decades. Suggestion: find a problem you want to solve, some small project or fun hack. And just do it. Every time you get stuck, go to google and search for the answer. Spend time looking at multiple responses and take your time rabbit holing and viewing tangential information. The important part is starting the project.
