coding in C but I start over for every compiler error

TODAY I TAKE ON A MIGHTY CHALLENGE. A QUEST THAT NO OTHER PROGRAMMER OR CONTENT CREATOR WILL TAKE ON FOR THEIR VIEWERS.

Today I will program a TCP Server and Client in C, but there is a catch. First, I will create this socket server and client, but if I get ANY compilation errors, I will delete ALL OF MY CODE AND START OVER. Two, I will not be using an outside resources. I will instead only be using the man pages that come with Linux.

Wish me luck.

Now onto the hard mode, compile with: -Wall -Wextra -pedantic -Werrors -Wconversion

[pokemettilp]

I learned a great practice: "TODO: Make code good"
Imma put this after every line of code now!

[CyrillKR]

This is honestly better than watching an hour long tutorial of an introduction for writing sockets in C.

"Warnings are not errors"
Only runtime can tell... ; )

You inspired me to make a calculator interface in c++ with qt designer, but everytime its ugly i retype everything, wish me luck

I didn't have prior knowledge to C before my networking class and we literally just had this assignment. It was still hard with Stack Overflow help, because most C socket programming guides were written in plain HTML and were uploaded to some random subdirectory in a webserver at some university in 2002.

But, MAN did I learn how man pages work!

Great video idea. I especially like the "no outside resources" part. This was the default up to like 2005 for most of us :D

[LoomMexatron]

I am rather impressed. Not many people have the courage to do such challenge with such rules!

[sohn]

This feels like a Speedrun but every error is a huge timeloss so you reset

[RyanLynch]

very cool idea and a clever gimmick! hope you do more of these

[ahmedsaadsabit]

I have begun to love this channel so much, some more low level content would be fucking amazing!

[Ecks]

Genuinely one of the most entertaining, professional, and helpful programming youtubers I know, you're very cool. This is also a very "fun" challenge idea.

[isabelpino]

With your videos my learning curve will shrink drastically. Thank you.

[pwnwriter]

Learnt a lottt
Pls do these type of challenges

[heitormbonfim]

Great one, bruh. Just make sure to give a ctrl + (plus) to zoom in a bit and a ctrl + B to get rid of the side bar showing the files.

[mhsd]

Impressive. Any chance you could do a video where you go into more detail on how this works including how to work with the man pages?

[davga]

This was an excellent video! Thanks. I need to try this sometime as it will probably improve my programming skills.

[kalelalves]

I don't think I ever felt so stressed out from watching someone code. hahaha

[notyaniecetv]

I just know this is a GREAT way to learn ! 😂 Leaving a comment so I can come back to this when I get off

Now do hardcore mode: switch OSes every time you get a compile error (Linux, macOS, Windows, FreeBSD, and then increasingly obscure Unixes in VMs)
