python on arduino?? Bros abeg explain

I don't have an arduino micro-controller/PCB. Price ranges from $24.95 atleast for a *UNO R3 Board * I look forward to getting one for myself.
Basically, you use a plugin in the IDE that enables you use Python codes instead of the native Arduino language to write/communicate with the board. I can't type much on that, just look it up yourself. Besides, I'm just a teen with Wide targets. Gotta sleep now, I still have to wash plate when it's dawn.
Good morning..

Laters, someone will come and be talking jargons about how kenyan ICT is the best in Africa... CSTR2

socrates007:

just software .

C++ is awesome, but for the sake of Speed, and simplicity I'd use VB.net or Vb6 to develop a regular *.exe* program, Instead of C++.
C++ is for the bigger deal, I Mean High-end graphical game development, Graphical softwares and all that...
BTW, Sir I'm just 19.

socrates007:

C ,in my opinion. is best for accomplishing such a task.i just have basic knowledge of c.i mean am just able to design console apps.but i do most of my jobs on java or vb.net

Yeah, I concur. When you say ''console apps'' Hacking programs comes to my mind.
When i was younger I' did use Batch language to destory things, I was young and insensitive..
You know, when you watch too many Hollywood movies, and you just wanna feel like an Hacker!
LOL...

OMG! Nigeria is wonderful we still made the list... U.S.A is on the 2nd list abi my eyes are itching me and they rule the world...

U are a genius .i was once like u too.i did a lot of coding then in BASIC language.but work and other things didn't make me sit tight on programming.I was a former computer lecturer at lagos city polytechnic and lagos city computer college.i did alot of coding then.am twice ur age

Upon say nigerian no they get light to operate computer them still carry 3.if light come they nko,omo we for tear the scale. odikwa very risky

tammie24:
Na only suit Kenyans sabi wear


No be by suit jare!

cheap suits!

Erm... <clears throat> Sorry. I don't get the hype.
I see ppl comparing Nigeria with Kenya, Egypt and SA.
We have a better chance at making the list. Why? Because we are plenty, duh.
We have a population more than all these three countries combined.
So I'm not entirely impressed seeing that we were only able to make 40-something position.
If we had made top 10, then YES we are gooood!
I do agree though that if there were better infrastructures in place, we could be better.

When will Nigeria reach number 1 in the world? we are forming big boys and girls because we are number 3 in africa...in case you dont know we are number 900000000000000 in the world so we better buckle up

na so we take senior the rest of Africa, especially kenya

We devs definitely are working hard, watchout for the next list... We won't be smiling, top 20 is very possible.

Eya, sorry Kenya no make list, lol

see Nigeria competing with developed countries... If only we are United and have good government.

Govt is not giving enough support to this sector. There are too many limiting factors. Bureaucracy, favouritism, nepotism, misplaced priorities and dearth of computer science knowledge in our higher institutions.
Russia, china , Poland etc all have govt support and backings. Here, we have people who would rather play limbo politics than give the youths the necessary support.
Nigerians should please stop competing with tiny African neighbours. The world is ours to conquer.

thesicilian:
China is taking over the world in almost every aspect of life. I'm even surprised to see Nigeria in top 3 in Africa. Kudos to our boys and girls at Computer Village & Aba.

Hold your horse bro, they are talking about programmers not pirates and CD cloners.

socrates007:

guy u they make me vex,why u go talk say na suit kenya they wear,na coat them they wear .only thier president they try wear suit.

abeg nor vex

so after Kenya done humble our ass yesterday na trend to give us hope we come dey come up with now.......mhen mods stop making us look like soar lossers mhen

RockHard:


Lol. For your mind. Computer village and Aba Ibo boys mainly deal in SALES of computer HardWare. Without sentiments, the SWersterners play the dominant role in Software where programming falls under.

Before jealousy drains your blood completely, aba has produced great programmers and computer professionals. Go and check the record, Abia State Polytechnic has consistently remained unbeaten over the years in the tertiary institutions computer competition. The major challenge in the contest is programming and abia poly maintained serial first position. Ibo boys in the school are high sort after -programmers. When next you hear aba, don't always think about bad rd & other negative image the internet portray, Any good thing you have in Yoruba, we have ours unique and special

siraj1402:
We will soon get there!

Meanwhile, If you want to change the world, do it when you are a bachelor. After marriage, you can't even change a TV channel.

u keep blessing me with ur post back2back,usain bolt post still fresh in ma mind

obaino860:



keeping ranting rubbish....
globacom is d biggest ICT firm in Nigeria.....
sorry for you.....I think you prefer ignorancy than real sense...better live by it since it pays you

and this guy will think he. Have sense

RockHard:


Are you daft? Zinox deals in HARDWARE computer assembly and sales. We're talking about PROGRAMMING HERE -- Software. The fact that I'm having to break this down to you alone shows how ignorant you are. Besides, Globacom is the Biggest ICT Firm in Nigeria, not Zinox. (ICT Stands for Information and Communications Technology). I hope you've learned a thing or two today. Now go back and play with your toys.

Help me tell the mugu.

socrates007:

*TRUNCATED*

Thank you for the compliment sir.
I just love programming alot I'm into almost every aspect of Computing i.e 2D animation, Software dev, Hacking e.t.c.
IMHO, the program we have in this country is the fact that we do too many things manually in government organizations.
I have worked on some programs you can search some of them here on NL, some of the programs i've worked:-
1. Phone number generator *Offline

2. Hospital Record Management system

3. A Lottery Program *Advanced*

4. Maths solving software
and some other bitty programs.
I decided to venture into Database programs, because they are too many Game developers already with almost any game u can think of out there.
I just got admitted to KWASU, and i'm already working on an App that connects students together, whereby every department have their own Chat-room. I just want to make it easier for students to Hook-up with friends nd spread information easily. It got loads of features i can't disclose here! I'm using B4A tho!

Djtm:
This is a bad joke right?

The nigga just murdered the case and pushed it to a whole unrelated direction. I would call him a mugu but I can't even tell if he was just playing ignorant.

Is this by country of origin of the programmers. Cos Nigeria would be higher up still. We have them all over the world.

Asin eh, it's scary what china could become with their innovative spirit and population.

Why is it scary about that ?
China does not innovate that much, they only reproduce
successful technologies a a cheaper price.

D5000y:
where pirated softwares are at the maximun

Are you guys talking of Aba now, or Computer Village?

RockHard:

That may be true, but these same southwesterners you talk about can be found mainly in the computer village. If only our government could see the true potentials that lay hidden in that place and develop it, we'd have our own "Silicon Valley" in a few years.

raindodger13:

I tell you bro, within 1 - 2 decades they could become the undisputed world superpowers
