>>17024310>for someone with prior-but-stale experience to get into coding again?imo get comfortable with control flow again
dont go too crazy on data structures/algorithms, but leetcode is good to re-remember how control flow and stuff works
I assume u knew C, so learn C again.
Dont get caught up on the pre-processor, pointers, structs, modules/interfaces, etc...
make sure ur comfortable with the meat and potatoes of coding. For loops, functions, return types, arrays, etc..
then learn pointers WELL
strings are weird one so approach it as you see fit
learn structs last, and learn how they're used to develop interfaces/modules
inevitably, the preprocessor stuff ull learn along the way
afterwards, object-orientation arises very naturaly once u understand how structs interact as they grow
i guess then you can tiptoe into C++?
id argue to pivot to python for oop, C++ is way too granular & bottomless if u just wanna jump back into coding.
If you really want to re-learn oop inside-out then sure, continue to C++.
and generaly always respect coding conventions. Not so much on function/variable names, but more how to properly write interfaces and modules, e.g. ifndef...define....endif
also dont get too caught up on makefiles, just write something that works until ur comfortable.
