Those and Java Monsters got me through my Java programming class

2018-12-17 22:28:45 UTC  

haha I learned java in highschool

2018-12-17 22:28:53 UTC  

Our instructor was so bad dude

2018-12-17 22:28:54 UTC  

you should learn python

2018-12-17 22:28:58 UTC  

I should

2018-12-17 22:29:12 UTC  

I write crypto bots in it

2018-12-17 22:29:16 UTC  

However, I am still recovering from my Java PTSD

2018-12-17 22:29:35 UTC  

Our instructor didn't teach at all, he would draw shapes and lines on screen for 55 minutes and that was the lecture

2018-12-17 22:29:53 UTC  

thats java

2018-12-17 22:29:56 UTC  

He was trying to explain the thought process

2018-12-17 22:30:01 UTC  

which is understandable

2018-12-17 22:30:05 UTC  

but the delivery was terrible

2018-12-17 22:30:14 UTC  

The other instructors agree

2018-12-17 22:30:26 UTC  

We showed them our assignments

2018-12-17 22:30:55 UTC  

Winded up making a B in the class

2018-12-17 22:31:02 UTC  

Funny thing is

2018-12-17 22:31:22 UTC  

my first accounting teacher was a 90 year old dude that was old school and got fired for failing a girl that had a baby and only missed 4 days of class the semester

2018-12-17 22:31:28 UTC  

There was some asshole in that class that complained about everyone else being stupid (in a passive aggressive way, without outright saying it)

2018-12-17 22:31:46 UTC  

@Josh42A why was he still teaching at 90 years old?

2018-12-17 22:31:53 UTC  

idfk

2018-12-17 22:32:06 UTC  

The guy who kept doing that made a C and I got a better grade than him

2018-12-17 22:32:14 UTC  

but he would literally just summarize the textbook and yell at us for asking questions

2018-12-17 22:32:39 UTC  

"ITS IN THE BOOK YOUD KNOW IT IF YOU READ THE BOOK"

2018-12-17 22:32:43 UTC  

In our Java class, the instructor made us do bookwork, but the book had nothing to do with the class

2018-12-17 22:32:51 UTC  

As in

2018-12-17 22:33:01 UTC  

He taught everything out of order, and it wasn't the same material anyway

2018-12-17 22:33:11 UTC  

his was way more in depth, wheras the book was pretty basic

2018-12-17 22:33:25 UTC  

no he should have taught you theroy with code

2018-12-17 22:33:52 UTC  

I taught my wife how to code then I teach her why you do each thing

2018-12-17 22:33:59 UTC  

He didn't do that

2018-12-17 22:34:09 UTC  

he was a retard

2018-12-17 22:34:10 UTC  

I don't know what he was thinking

2018-12-17 22:34:36 UTC  

I think around half of the people in his class last year failed

2018-12-17 22:34:40 UTC  

if not more

2018-12-17 22:34:52 UTC  

I know that was true for a class I had with him in spring

2018-12-17 22:35:03 UTC  

At some colleges that's normal, but not at this one

2018-12-17 22:35:11 UTC  

he stood out in the entire department

2018-12-17 22:35:15 UTC  

for his low pass rates

2018-12-17 22:39:06 UTC  

programming is easy thats why

2018-12-17 22:39:28 UTC  

its mostly basic math and grammar

2018-12-17 22:43:55 UTC  

u don't need college for that, you can do fine self-teaching it yourself with some help from a mentor
