Posting Etiquette

  1. Ask the main part of your question in the title. This should be concise but informative.

  2. Provide everything up front. Don't make people fish for more details in the comments. Provide background information and examples.

  3. Be present for follow up questions. Don't ask for help and run away. Stick around to answer questions and provide more details.

  4. Ask about the problem you're trying to solve. Don't focus too much on debugging your exact solution, as you may be going down the wrong path. Include as much information as you can about what you ultimately are trying to achieve. See more on this here: https://xyproblem.info/

This community is aimed at two specific topics:

  • Support general programming questions, of any language, mainly for people beginning their journey in programming.
  • Give some advice on programming education or career.

What this community doesn't intend to do:

  • Give specific answers to very specific, non-beginners, problems of a particular language. You probably can go to a community of that language to get help with that.
  • Solve your programming assignments. You can ask for a specific issue, but it's essential that you learn to think and solve them, or you'll never progress.

As suggested by Captain Janeway, here are some rules specific to the posts:

  • Paste your code. Unless there's not any other way, please don't provide screenshots of the code, it's harder to review.
  • If possible, try to provide a runnable example of the code in question
  • Explain as much as you can: what you’ve tried, what the error is, what you think the problem is
  • As usual, be kind

The probability of getting an answer will increase dramatically if you follow these points.

This post will be updated periodically, with any new inputs considered necessary.-----
