I can recall countless late nights and commits during 2025 to 2026 just to finish this.

I wanted to quit in the middle, but David’s lectures made me want to stay and give it a try. And now I’m super grateful for every challenge that I solved that got me here.

Many thanks to David & technical team who made this course available.

Onward to the next challenge.

This was CS50!

Program Description:

Windrose is a program for which its function is to provide the user with advice on which windows to open to achieve optimum airflow ventilation. The program receives the user's location and cardinal orientation as inputs from the user and uses that with information received from Open-Meteo's wind information to provide the user with advice on which windows to use to achieve the most optimum ventilation. 

Repo: https://github.com/OmarFishir/Windrose

Video Demo: https://youtu.be/OluDKioaCnY

This is my first programming course. I loved the CS50 format and how useful the problem sets have been. However, even after finishing this course, I feel like I've been training in a swimming pool then dropped into an ocean.

I want to do CS50x, CS50 AI, CS50 web, and CS50 Cybersecurity.

My goal? I don't really know. I just want to learn and be able to be competent in all of those fields until I find one to gravitate towards most. I think CS50x should be first?

Hi, I’m a complete beginner in coding, this is my first course and my first time trying to learn. Is it actually possible? I feel like I understand a little bit but when I try to solve a problem my mind goes blank, idk what to write or how to even begin… I don’t know how it properly works but does anybody have this problem? Do I even have a chance of learning ?

CS50x Using Hints

3 Upvotes

I'm currently on week 4 and for every other week I've used the hints as I feel like I was really struggling without them. This week it feels like it's borderline writing the code for me. If I don't use them though, I still feel like I would be quite lost. I suppose, I'm just asking for others' opinions on using them. Cheers!
