<@Alek>
if I wanna learn JS, do I want O'Reilly's Learning Javascript (the library also has Javascript Patterns and Javascript Cookbook), the Javascript Bible (several editions up to 2009), Beautiful Javascript or Beginning Javascript (2015), or other?
21:55
< crystalclaw>
Well, Iāve had luck with this: https://www.codecademy.com
21:55
< crystalclaw>
I donāt know about the books though. I love reading, but coding books go out of date super fast.
21:56
<&McMartin>
While it requires reading with a skeptical eye and already having had some experience, "JavaScript: The Good Parts" is a good book.
21:56
<&McMartin>
It's also a very slim one~
21:56
<&McMartin>
Joking aside, this is because one of the good parts is that it gets a lot of generality out of a small number of features
21:56
<&McMartin>
But that's what makes it a terrible tutorial
22:02
<@Alek>
ahuh...
22:05
<~Vornicus>
I learned js by osmosis
22:05
<~Vornicus>
also it is strange to see reverse-text used as emphasis
22:06
<~Vornicus>
Alek: what's your programming experience? What languages have you used, to what ends?

<@Alek>
python, c/c++, incompletely self-taught. OLD basic and cobol from DeVry. no actual experience yet.
22:12
<@Alek>
HTML/XHTML with a forgotten dash of CSS.

Alek: I learned JS on my own. Primarily by being on a largish ExtJS project (ExtJS is very easy to get into a state where it throws out useless stacktraces), then playing with node.js. IMO the main thing you want to grok is how scoping/closures work in JS. Then how inheritance works and what alternatives extist, and how the alternatives actually work.
23:49
<&McMartin>
A lot of this depends on how incomplete the incompletely self-taught is
23:50
< crystalclaw>
^
23:51
< crystalclaw>
Iām self-taught in javascript, but if you asked me to write anything in it, itād mostly be relearing on the fly from google and trial-and-error.
23:52
<&McMartin>
Right, but from the experience listed we may be at "do we need to go over what local variables are"
23:52
<&McMartin>
COBOL didn't really have them and BASIC didn't until its second of three generations
23:57
<~Vornicus>
C and Python do, but you don't have to insist
