/prog/ - Web design

Name: Anonymous 2008-04-04 16:09

Hey, I'm looking to learn web design, but i have no idea what language to learn.

The only prior programming experience i have is the first 100 pages of a C# book.

What language(s) should i learn and what book(s) should i purchase?

HTML and CSS and PHP in that order, should be all you need.

(note that none of them is a programming language, so you're a faggot).

i know they aren't, but similar concepts apply. Thanks for the advice

Web design is not programming. Did you mean WEB DEVELOPER?

Learn HTML, CSS, and PHP definitely.

If you're into cool little effects like dropdown menus, learn Javascript, but keep in mind that not everyone allows it, so you need to have <noscript> alternatives.

Also, if you plan to do any type of interaction such as a member system, forum, etc, you probably should learn SQL.

Haskell question:

How do I calculate the cosine of 90^{^o}?
cos pi gives -1, which is cool, same with cos 0 => 1, but cos (pi/2) => 6.123031769111886e-17 instead of the expected 0. What units does Haskell use?

6.123031769111886e-17 = 0.00000000000000006123031769111886 ≈ 0

Floating point arithmetic is not 100% precise.

That's kinda close to 0, don't you think ?

I don't think so. There's an awful lot of numbers there, and they must be there for a reason.

6.123031769111886 * 2^-17 =/= 0

Haskell question:

In haskell-mode, emacs, C-c C-l invokes ghci in a separate window. How do I load it in the vertically split frame window rather than horizontally?

No; furthermore, grepping the haskell-mode for ``split'' reveals only Haskell splits and splitAts, no elisp.
