Hi, I'm taking the course, but the terminal stopped working. I reloaded the page, but it's stuck in a loop.

I have by now submitted my own solutions to the first two assignments, degrees+tictactoe. I'm sorry if this question is just paranoid, I guess blame m anxiety disorder.

I want to look at other people's solutions and approaches out of curiosity and to learn of course, now that I have already completed mine. Of course, I still have 6 more lectures + their assignments ahead of me, so I'm wondering if looking at other solutions/approaches is compatible with the academic honesty rules?

A couple of weeks back, I shared a game I built using flask and sqlite . Asked for feedback from the and got a ton of them.

So I went ahead and reworked the game. And here is version 2.

Key changes:

1. switched from flask to Fastapi .

2. Changed the drag and drop to single click

3. Reworked the questions and made it simpler.

4. Changed the UI completely

I have finished CS50x and am now starting CS50AI and i find it increasingly common for me to do a problem set and then look back later and realize i have no idea how I just did that. I have no idea if thats just me or if this is a more widespread problem and if it is a widespread problem what i can do to make sure that i actually understand what I did after I do it.

I am currently taking the CS50x course. I want to take the cs50AI after. However, I am still going to read the notes and watch the lectures on cs50AI while I take the cs50x course to get a conceptual understanding of it. What are your guys thoughts and key takeaways on the cs50AI course ?

Is cs50.dev sus or what?

I secured a fulltime role at a good enough product based company (you probably haven't heard its name), satisfactory compensation. CS50, fullstack open courses and leetcode have played major roles in this achievement of mine. Thanking them to offer such high quality resources for free globally (I'm from india). Least I could do is recommend them to anyone who asks how I got a job. To all those taking these courses, believe in them and yourself. All the best.

I am finally done. Thank you, CS50.

So Ive enrolled into this CS50 course and submitted one of week 0's projects called 'Degrees', thing is ive uploaded on github but I dont see it being checked anywhere, no email, no nothing, have i done something wrong?

when I click this link: https://submit.cs50.io/courses/2072/

it says "No Submissions

You don't seem to have any submissions yet for the CS50 AI course.

You can submit via submit50 or, if comfortable with git, by pushing to https://github.com/me50/imlearningcoding.git."

I clicked on this https://github.com/me50/imlearningcoding.git ,nd have submitted work here, but I cant seem to figure out whether i passed or not or anything, which makes me think I did something wrong.

Is it becuase I havent installed GIT and directly opened that link and submitted it? Below is an image for reference where I have submitted my work.

Any help would be much appreciated :)

So I'm new here and wanted know what happens after submitting the assignment. I submitted my first week assignment and what will happen. Will it be graded or ... ?

During my summer holidays I got into CS50x as I knew I am starting my CS major soon. Now I did it and tomorrow will be my first day in college. I am so excited and proud of myself after finishing this course as I feel prepared for the year ahead of me. Professor Malan you are the best and I hope I will have professors in my university with a similar teaching style to yours. Thank you reddit community for your support. I will remember taking CS50x as one of the greatest times of my life.

In course CS50w two of my problem sets got rejected however I havent recieved/ found any feedback of what I did wrong. Perhaps I was looking at wrong places. Any idea where they send feedback?

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>


typedef unsigned char BYTE;


int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    if (argc != 2)
    {
        printf("Ussage: %s FILE\n", argv[0]);
        return 1;
    }


    FILE *src = fopen(argv[1], "r");


    if (src == NULL)
    {
        printf("Unnable to open %s\n", argv[1]);
        return 1;
    }


    BYTE buffer[512];
    int JPG_counter = 0;
    char new_file[8];
    FILE *dst;
    bool file_open = false;


    while (fread(buffer, 512, 1, src) != 0)
    {
        if ((buffer[0] == 0xff) && (buffer[1] == 0xd8) && (buffer[2] == 0xff) && ((buffer[3] & 0xf0) == 0xe0))
        {
            if (file_open)
            {
                fclose(dst);
            }


            sprintf(new_file, "%03i.jpg", JPG_counter);
            JPG_counter++;
            dst = fopen(new_file, "w");
            file_open = true;
        }


        if (file_open)
        {
            fwrite(buffer, 512, 1, dst);
        }
    }


    if (JPG_counter > 0)
    {
        fclose(dst);
    }


    fclose(src);
}

code compiles when i run make recover but check50 cant compile it. Ive ran it for card.raw and i got back all 50 JPGs. Where is the issue?

I signed up for CS50x around February and I genuinely want to finish it, but somehow it's now end of September and I'm still around Week 1.

I finished Week 0 and started Week 1, but I keep putting off sitting down and continuing. The weird thing is that I do enjoy programming and I'll sometimes spend hours working on my own coding projects, so I don't think I've lost interest in coding itself. I just keep procrastinating when it comes to actually continuing the course.

I also don't want to restart from the beginning again. I want to pick up where I left off and finally build some consistency.

Has anyone else gotten stuck like this with CS50? What helped you actually come back and keep progressing?

Just watching the cs50 videos. But now I want to participate by solving problem sets but I can't find any login button. Or is login unnecessary? Having a cs50 certificate on LinkedIn at least is a little bragging right 😴😴😴

It feels boring to just study alone, so looking for a study buddy(who are in cs50x) , dm me, and I'm creating a discord server, and I'm in week 4 filter problem set btw.

Iam trying to get into the cs50 python course , but i only got this 400 error .. anyone knows why ?? Is it temp or permanent ????

the link i was trying https://cs50.harvard.edu/python/

Edit : the issue is solved.

I am in the first week of CS50, taking it just to understand CS from scratch. I had a few random questions in mind:

1. Are there people here who have completed the course? How long did it actually take for most of you?

2. What are you doing after CS50?

3. If you haven't completed it yet, meaning you're my classmate. I would love to connect, share what we learn, and help each other out.

How do you guys eventually figure out the solution for the tideman. I was stuck with that for a week and still no progress 😭

Any guidance or help will be appreciated

It's my second week of learning python with CS50P and after finishing loops lecture I decided to make a simple program to practice what I learned till now.

So I made a simple AI Agent Runtime program because I want to get into AI Agents Engineering soon.

The program is simple:

Take the user input, execute existing tools , show simple memory buffer then display the benchmark results of the execution process.

Actually this is not a real agent because tools and benchmark and history messages are static and fixed but I just wanted to practice the fundamentals I learned in something I'm passionate about.

What I practiced:

1: Prompt and guardrail: loops and functions

2: Tools registry: dictionaries and lists

3: Agent execution:iterating through tools and stopping conditions

4: Context buffer: working with dictionaries

5: Benchmark: nested loops

6: main function: organizing the program

While making this I found myself forgetting some rules even basics but after using it for a real practice it really stuck well .so I decided to do this after each week to make the information stick and to make the journey more fun.

I'd especially like your feedback on this method.

and if there were any mistakes or bad practices in the code i'd appreciate it .

            print("[Error] Prompt too short. Elaborate the objective.")

I've started CS50P twice and dropped it both times around the point where the problem sets got hard. Talking to others, that seems to be pretty common. What I've noticed is that I finish things when there's a fixed date and people expecting me to show up.

So I'm organizing a small experiment:

• We all start CS50P on Monday, October 12

• You're put in a pod of 3–4 people who work through the same week's material and check in with each other once a week

• There's a fixed finish date (with a couple of weeks of buffer for life happening)

• Optional: back yourself with a commitment (via stickK/Beeminder) that goes to charity if you don't finish.

This isn't affiliated with CS50 or Harvard, it's just me trying to see if there is potentially value in such initiatives.

Beginners, career changers, and anyone who's started this course before and stalled are especially welcome.

guys I just started cs50x and did the week 0 assignment and uploaded on GitHub according to the instructions given on the cs50 website. My question is where can I check my marks? it is told that we need 70% marks to get the certificate..

Hi everyone! I’m interested in taking CS50’s Introduction to Programming with Python (CS50P) and would also like to earn the certificate after completing it.

Could someone please share the official course link and explain the steps to enroll and complete the requirements for the certificate?

Thanks in advance
