Solve This Coding Problem and Win $200

@NickWhite and I hit the streets of Chicago to ask strangers If they know how to write code. If they do, and they're able to solve our programming challenges we will give them up to $200.

6:11 "It's never too early to start coding"..
I've been telling my 3 year old kid that but she insists on learning how to read first... Kids these days..

I'm a 3rd-year Computer Engineering student and this video makes me wanna refresh my knowledge in programming (both C and C++). Love from the Philippines.

The guy at the end said
“I think it’s an essential skill everyone should have.”
I cannot agree more.
I’ve discounted myself for years as dumb or not learned because I’ve never delved into things like this which have always put me in awe and today I realized, when time applied, I could actually do this if I wanted to, and how far progressed would we be technologically if everyone had this under their belt from a young age xD

"In java it doesnt work"
Man rethought his existence in .5 second 🤣🤣

i am starting to think im better than the average programmer after watching this. might be a sampling bias since better programmers dont leave the house.

The funny thing about 0:52 is that her solution of using reversed() is actually far more efficient than manually writing out a function to reverse the string since Python library functions are highly optimized.

Dude I watched this like 6 months ago and didn't know how they did any of this but after taking a CS class in Python I understand it now. Thats insane...

When grandpa comes out swinging like, "binary, assembly, matlab, basic, that's what I used to use when I was a kid"

[NickWhite]

i think we might be giving money to people that don't really need it...

[ab.]

grandpa still remembers Fortran 💀 3:25

I watched this video for the first time a year ago. I had no idea what they were even talking about. Now a year later, i know exactly whats going on and im able to solve pretty much every problem. It feels nice to see progress.

"What language do you program in?"

Old guy: Punch cards

[elephantwaffle]

I nervously watched and attempted the problems being a recent Computer Science graduate (thinking that I wouldn't know and would feel stupid). I learned that I can at least answer simple coding problems! Thanks 4 years of college!

[Rakeshyadav-uddi]

It's great work done by you and for those who are starting career in IT.

[biniteshome]

i like the dude who added error handling, catching errors so they don't hit the ground. epic

[Quimerateck]

after finishing a course in python programing, i feel prepared to write my print('hello world')

[uyscuti]

man at 3:37 is like : C, C#, C+,C++,C+++,C x max pro, C lite

A good solution for two sum is two pointers.

We have a variable init to 0 to track current total.

Left and right variables track from the start and end of the array.

We check if left index element + right element index == sum, if so return it and break out of the function.

If not

We use a while loop, while total != sum and conditionals that ask if total is > or < sum. If > move the right pointer to the left and if < move left pointer to the right.

Either we get a match for sum via two indices or

If we check the entire array and there's no match, have a return outside the while loop to return a meaningful message to the user.

First time I watched this video was before I started coding and I had no idea what's happening. I just returned to see how far I've come. It's unbelievable how far I've come in 5 months

3:37 didn't know "C+" was a programming language 🤔
