technically it’s not my first day with C, because I’ve taken a C programming course a month ago. But to be honest, it was a loop of generating the code with AI, then reading through it to “understand,” make some changes, and submitting. I think it’s the same with most programming beginner students. But now I want to change it, because who wants to submit codes, scared that I might be accused of using AI any day now?
It took me hours to figure out how to use VScode correctly. They kept showing an error message and did not display the updated version of the code. I asked my friends but they couldn’t identify the problem. But after the hours, I figured it out using Terminal. (Terminal is the only thing I can understand ;-; )
My Code 🦢🤍
What’s your MBTI? Mine is ESTJ. I thought I’d code something that actually interests me. ♪
anyways, below is the code I made. It’s an ultra short MBTI quiz. I had trouble figuring out the chars and ints and the %d, %s, %1s , like one letter mistake and I can’t run the code anymore. The questions were generated by ChatGPT , but the code was written by me. I think I did a good job as a noob. I was reopening other tabs so many times when I forgot how to code a specific thing, but once I write it down, it is pretty easy. One thing I think I can improve is the repetitive-ness. I feel like the code I wrote is the basic form, but with extra thinking, I would be able to shorten the code by a lot and still get the same result. My family all took the test and told me, “you need more questions these aren’t accurate.” Give me a break, it’s called ultra-short MBTI test for a reason. Maybe I should extend the 4 questions into at least 12 though 🥲
