Thread: Asking Questions About Homeworks

same here....

this is not really programming but, today in bio we had to hand in a crossword of 30 words on systems that we had to HAND make but some idiot used internet which i though was not rair!!!!........dumbasses

i dont really mind, provided there is some effort put in by the person asking for help. but i cant stand it when someone posts "can someone show me how to..... blah blah?" and then not show any code, any effort, anything at all. i know that w/o this board, i would have had a lot of trouble when i first started out.

yeah if they ask about concepts, that alright, but to solve teh whole thing :\

I think.. asking Questions about homeworks. and other problems.. withought making any effort to solve the programmer creats difficulties... for the programmer itself.

When someone is learning C/C++ it is fine.. to ask the specified problems in the programs after trying hard to solve by himslef/herself -- but frequently coming to this board just for posting a thread withought making any effort..(that I will get the solution here. ) really spoils the abilities...of student.

Strickly saying... This kind of attitude of a student make himself/herself helpless when solving big / Complex problems.. in higher studies or during Job.

We must strickly discourage these kind of Threads... and give him/her the hints to clear the concepts..and suggest him/her to work hard.. while replying inital stage C/C++ programming concepts.

i agree, i used to do that when i very first started, i'd go post for help on everything on boards. Then after a while i thought i knew my stuff, but then when i got into college i found out the hard way that i didnt really know as much as i thought. i still post for help but i mean if you need help you gotta post code, ya know, "no code, no helping hand"

I guess it doesn't matter if it's homework or not. If the poster shows effort in solving this task him/herself and has code and thoughts that make clear s/he tried, that's fine. If s/he is only dumping his/her problems here, it's going to attract the inevitable homework response

I think we should do all the work for these poor people

NOT!

If there is at least some effort made, fair enough.

What printf joke?

our teacher acutally wants us to ask questions on here. And the whole "Programming Language or your first girlfriend" thing was my teacher's idea.

its true, he told us to. I still remember the days of printf. It will come again. Question, can you use printf with java???

No you cannot. There are print and println methods.
