Turning humans into developers with Perl - London Perl Workshop 2017
In this talk I explain my methodology for teaching apprentice software developers. I mainly use Perl, and often work with young trainees who start their professional careers with very little to no prior tech knowledge. I talk about the social aspects of being a mentor and show process examples that help with long-term motivation.
Unlocking your team's potential with pair programming (workshop)
The document discusses pair programming, which involves two people working together on the same machine, such as writing code, and describes the benefits as knowledge sharing, team resilience, better solutions, higher quality code, and easier team standards. It also outlines different pairing styles, practical considerations for pairing, advice for pairing, and when pairing may not be as useful.
Good programming practices updated
This document outlines good programming practices for students to follow such as practicing and failing to improve, working in teams to solve problems, always coding to improve skills, debugging errors gracefully, and testing programs thoroughly. It recommends writing code on paper first, timing tasks, using functions and comments, handling exceptions, and getting feedback from others. Students should practice these techniques to write clean, well-structured code and solve problems effectively.
S1 Programming Lesson 1
This document introduces programming concepts like sequencing and subroutines. It begins by comparing how humans and computers understand instructions and defines programming as how you get computers to solve problems. The key points are that computers follow instructions precisely in the order given, while sequencing means instructions are performed in order. Subroutines are blocks of code that perform a certain task and can be repeatedly used, making programs smaller and easier to read. Non-computing examples of sequencing and subroutines are discussed.
Lunch and Learn 1
Tonya Murray gave a lunch & learn presentation on project management tips. She discussed her background in computer science, engineering, and software development. She then covered traditional waterfall development processes compared to agile development processes. She explained incremental development and elevator pitches. The presentation provided examples of tracking projects, parallel development, using version control with Git, and testing. Murray offered to help with dividing projects among teams, setting up simple tracking, version control, and career advice.
Training methdology testers to developers
This document outlines a methodology for transitioning testers to developers by starting them with bug fixing, unit testing with JUnit, problem solving, and then gradually introducing more advanced programming concepts like OOP and core Java. The approach begins by giving testers simple programs with bugs to find and fix. It then teaches unit testing and has them write test code. Problem solving skills are developed by having them solve scenarios on paper and learning to code solutions. The training progresses to more complex problems and programming topics until testers fully transition to thinking and working like programmers. A trainer with both technical and soft skills is needed to change testers' mindsets and ensure a 100% success rate.
Coding Introductory Lesson Lower Elementary
The document outlines the daily goals and activities for a coding class which include: reviewing concepts learned in the unit, writing basic code using blocks, and solving problems critically. The class will review topics like the internet, login credentials, and shortcuts. Students will also discuss how robots work and learn vocabulary like "arrange", "continue", and "block". They will practice programming tasks, solving puzzles, and sharing what they've learned about programming and computer chips. The goals will be reviewed and students will provide feedback on their progress.
Importance of UX Design in PM by Dhantra Studio Founder & CEO
This document summarizes a presentation about the importance of UX design principles for product management. The presentation discusses how UX should feel "whole" and "intuitive" by maintaining consistency, habituation, and providing proper feedback. It breaks down UX into its artistic, design, and technological components. For art, it emphasizes consistency, creative guidelines, and using less. For design, it focuses on consistency, habituation, intuitiveness, less is more, and feedback. For technology, it recommends prototyping and avoiding shortcuts. The overall goals are to make the experience whole through consistency and pixel perfection, and intuitive through various guidelines and feedback.

Introduction and overview of how to prepare to develop programs. Focus on pseudocode and preproduction is discussed.
Technical interview mc govern
The document discusses preparing for and participating in a technical interview. It provides examples of technical interview questions, including writing code to handle errors and implement search algorithms. It advises reviewing resume details and technical skills like programming concepts and languages. The document also recommends practicing coding exercises and on whiteboards. For the interview, it suggests asking questions to demonstrate skills, switching up the problem if possible, and relaxing to think openly and get started writing even if just taking notes.
Thinking like a Programmer
The document discusses thinking like a programmer and preparing to program. It begins by having the reader share their initial thoughts on programming and notes that learning to program can take years and involves learning new languages. It distinguishes between high-level programming languages like Swift, C#, Java, and C++ and scripting languages like Python, Ruby, and JavaScript. The document emphasizes that preparing to program involves regular practice of tutorials and training, remembering to write clean and concise code, making programming friends, and citing references as learning programming takes time and wrestling with concepts.
Competitive programming
This document discusses competitive programming (CP). It defines CP as a "mind sport" involving problem solving under constraints, not a computer engineering field. The goal of CP is to increase logical ability and write code for challenging situations. Reasons to do CP include it being trendy now and to improve problem solving and data structures and algorithms (DSA) skills. The roadmap involves learning time/space complexity, selecting a language, learning DSA, and practicing problems. Benefits include helping with coding interviews, improving problem solving, adding skills to one's resume, and demonstrating abilities publicly. To be a CP master requires practice.

Pair programming
Pair programming is an agile software development technique where two programmers work together at one workstation. One programmer acts as the driver, typing code while the other, the navigator, reviews the work and checks for errors or issues. Benefits include improved code quality, better knowledge sharing, increased productivity and transfer of skills. Best practices include outlining the work, discussing style, frequent communication and swapping driver/navigator roles periodically. It is normal for pair programming to feel exhausting initially or for disagreements to occur, requiring negotiation or a third perspective. Kindness and inclusiveness are important.
From Concrete to Abstract: Motivating Contexts for Novice Programmers
Presentation I gave at the first European Scratch Connecting Worlds conference in Barcelona in 2013. I talked about our use of different contexts and challenges that helped to motivate the need for particular programming concepts and ideas.
Competitive programming
Competitive programming involves writing programs to solve problems within a limited time period, typically ranging from hours to days, either individually or in teams. These contests test algorithm skills, basic math skills, programming skills, speed, creativity, and debugging abilities. Some prestigious contests include the ACM ICPC, Google Code Jam, TopCoder Open, and Facebook Hacker Cup. Competitive programming improves logical and analytical skills, looks good on a CV, and is fun, while also preparing participants for coding rounds during job interviews at many companies. Sites like Topcoder, SPOJ, Codeforces, Codechef, and Hackerrank allow programmers to practice for competitions.
GOOD PROGRAMMING
The document discusses common fears and challenges that programmers face such as self-doubt in their abilities, messy code formatting, inconsistent naming conventions, over-commenting, not fully understanding their programming language, and thinking they know everything when they are still learning. It provides tips for overcoming these issues such as taking time to plan their program logic, using a modular approach to break problems into smaller pieces, commenting code as needed, indenting code properly, and continuously learning through books, blogs, and hands-on practice.

Kata Your Way to SW Craftsmanship
Becoming a Software Craftsman takes a lot of practice. Using Code Katas in Coding Dojos is an excellent way to get that practice in a low stress fun way. Discover how to do that.
Pairing and mobbing
Pair programming involves two programmers working together, with one typing and the other reviewing the work. It allows for knowledge sharing and immediate feedback. When used selectively, it can produce higher quality code and help onboard new programmers. Mob programming takes this further by having the entire team work together on one task using one screen and keyboard, rotating who physically types. It aims to improve shared understanding and code quality through extensive collaboration, but may reduce delivery speed and be challenging for those who prefer individual work. Effective use of these techniques requires open communication, shared goals, and avoiding forced participation.
Fundamentals of App & Web Design
This document provides guidance on building programming projects. It recommends starting with an idea and choosing a development tool like Scratch, Python, or App Inventor that matches your experience level. Beginners should try Scratch or App Inventor, while more experienced programmers can try Java or C++. It emphasizes that programming is about problem-solving, not just learning commands. It also encourages sharing ideas with others and breaking large projects into smaller steps. The document lists some programming environments and websites that can be used to develop ideas.
Dev presentation
Programming is a difficult task that is often misunderstood. It requires extensive thinking and problem-solving abilities. No program is ever completely bug-free as programmers cannot think of every possible scenario or error. Experience is important for programmers to get better at their craft and continue improving their skills at building software.
Tdd
Test-driven development (TDD) is a software development process that relies on the repetition of short development cycles called red-green-refactor cycles. In TDD, tests are written before code to define desired functionality, and then code is written to pass those tests; this is followed by refactoring. The benefits of TDD include producing code that is robust, well-designed, and with fewer bugs due to comprehensive test coverage. While TDD requires discipline, it helps ensure code works as intended and allows refactoring with confidence that changes don't break existing functionality. Some potential vulnerabilities of TDD are that it may not prevent wrong solutions if requirements are unclear, can be difficult for UI or database-dependent programs

TDD and Simple Design Workshop - Session 1 - March 2019
The document discusses test-driven development (TDD) and simple design. It introduces TDD and some of its core practices, including test-driven development, simple design, refactoring, and pair programming. It provides an agenda for a workshop that will cover these topics over three sessions, including extreme programming (XP), the four elements of simple design, test doubles, outside-in TDD, and SOLID principles. The workshop aims to communicate best practices for using technical practices to succeed with agile development.
Agile Practices
Agile practices are recommended for small teams and projects to help them adapt to changes. Key practices include releasing software frequently to get early feedback, designing for flexibility, thoroughly testing code, writing code with the future in mind, and communicating dynamically through standup meetings, project tracking software, mailing lists, and comments in version control. While these practices are suggested, teams have flexibility in how they apply agile methods suited to their specific needs. The overall goal is to help teams be responsive to changes through an adaptive approach.
Cepstrum Placement Talk 2022.pptx
This document provides guidance on preparing for software engineering and data science interviews at various companies. It recommends focusing on data structures and algorithms, practicing coding on sites like Leetcode and InterviewBit, and preparing for math concepts like probability, statistics, and linear algebra. It also stresses the importance of practicing communication during mock interviews, being able to discuss problem-solving approaches, and having a strong understanding of computer science fundamentals and one's own work experience and motivation.
Software Design Notes
This document contains software design notes and principles from Diego Pacheco. Some key points include:
- Modules should be designed to be deep with simple interfaces. Classes should also be designed to be deep modules.
- Interfaces that resemble implementations indicate shallow design that leaks information and creates poor abstractions.
- Comments should describe how to use interfaces, not implementation details, and need to stay close to the code.
- Code should be designed to be obvious through use of precise names, patterns, and avoidance of obscurity through event-driven code or generic objects.
- Composition should be used over inheritance in object-oriented design. Patterns also risk over-application.
TDD in Agile
The document discusses test driven development (TDD) in an agile environment. It covers topics like the agile manifesto, evolutionary design, TDD steps and philosophy, myths about TDD, test qualities, benefits and costs of TDD, plugins and language support. The author shares their experience with TDD, noting that it improved code quality and refactoring while requiring support from leads to be effective long-term. Acceptance TDD is recommended to ensure shared understanding of what is being built.
Debugging
This document provides an overview of various concepts in software engineering, including implementation, testing, debugging, development rules, and sayings around software development. It discusses principles like debugging and maintenance taking more time than implementation, data structures being more important than codes/algorithms, avoiding premature optimization, and releasing software often for early feedback. It also covers topics such as unit testing, avoiding obese code, intellectual property, management approaches, software development methodologies, and different types of testing.
TDD - Seriously, try it! - Opensouthcode
TDD involves writing tests before code to help design and develop software incrementally. It can find defects earlier and make software easier to maintain with fewer bugs. While difficult to learn, TDD seeks to build better modular code through a simple iterative process. Starting small with katas and practicing regularly, including pair programming, can help adapt to TDD's mechanics. Though challenges exist, it is worth trying TDD to potentially improve software quality and reduce costs over time.

TDD & Refactoring
The document discusses test-driven development (TDD) and refactoring. It explains what TDD is, how to implement it in three steps - writing a failing test, making the test pass, and refactoring code - and provides an example of modeling a calendar to track holidays using TDD. The document also discusses benefits of TDD like catching mistakes early, increasing coding confidence, and making it easier to implement new requirements through refactoring.
Intro to TDD
TDD and agile methods originated from attempts to manage large software projects more effectively. TDD involves writing automated tests before code to specify requirements and catch errors early. It helps avoid major redesigns later. Tests should fail initially and then code is written to pass the test, followed by refactoring. Patterns like starting simply, faking dependencies, and generalizing from examples help get code passing tests quickly. Pitfalls include not starting with a failing test or refactoring tests improperly. The session covered TDD history and techniques, with examples and opportunities for further learning.
Amanda Cinnamon - Treat Your Code Like the Valuable Software It Is
2018 Women in Analytics Conference
https://www.womeninanalytics.org/
Data analysts create millions of lines of elegant, powerful code every year. However, because software development is not seen as their primary role, best practices of software engineering often fall to the wayside. Many data analysts are self-taught programmers who haven’t been exposed to tools like version control software, unit testing suites, and System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) processes. Popular software engineering concepts such as Don’t Repeat Yourself (DRY), design patterns, and modularization can vastly improve the quality and efficiency of analytics projects. This talk will provide a high-level introduction to these topics, and will focus on providing resources for additional learning.
Raising the Bar
This document discusses ways to raise the bar of software development by combining it with other disciplines. It proposes 6 intersections between software design and other fields: 1) Software Design and UX, 2) Other design disciplines, 3) Materials Science, 4) Math, 5) Engineering principles of built-in self-testing, and 6) Reaching out to scientists. It argues that considering ideas from other domains could improve software design and help address challenges like dependencies in legacy code. The document also suggests ways to fundamentally change development by precisely defining requirements and generating code from them.
Code Retreat
This document describes a code retreat event where programmers gather to improve their skills through pair programming exercises. The retreat will involve two 45-minute coding sessions using constraints like immutable objects and four lines of code per method. Programmers will pair up and take turns writing tests and implementation code using ping pong pair programming. Between sessions, they will reflect on their experience and process of pairing, deleting code between rounds. The goal is to learn through constraints and continuous practice with a focus on software fundamentals.

Building software vs programming
- 2. Who are you ??? a) The Developer b) The Programmer c) The nephew who makes websites Developers are smart people, they think quickly and just try to reproduce it with the same velocity.
- 3. Building Software To build a software like a boss, first we need to: - Think, discuss and design - Use some good developer skills to start coding(will talk about later) - Programmers skip those steps...
- 4. Headless chicken Please, don't be a headless chicken that just runs without any thoughts
- 5. Why all that ? - Time on planning/designing helps us understanding problems - Time on planning == quality on delivery
- 6. Main Skill Beyond these, a main skill to be improved is... TDD
- 7. Test Driven Development Provides us: - Preventing future errors(not all but a lot) + saving time - Helping on planning tasks Please, spend some time on the mantra: red, green, refactor
- 8. What you have after that - Beautiful and consistent code - Beautiful and designed documentation - Simple test, simple code. Easy to understand, easy to maintain - Challenge to write better code == try to find better solutions == improve your coding skills
- 9. You are smart, so ask yourself: - Is this test too trivial ? - Is this test going to be useful ? - Is this too complex ? - should try another way, maybe trying to separate things first - pair programming, if don’t ask google for samples - if still complex, discuss about that again, probably this could be easier to be done
- 10. Please tell me now: - Do you use TDD or just write some tests ? - Do you feel like a headless chicken sometimes ? - What happen when you don’t plan or discuss about a new task ? - What steps do you take when you get a complex task to be tested ? - What could you improve to be a better developer ?
- 11. Bonus slide
