| Hi flopsy,
I appreciate all of the sound advice you give people on this board.
My D will be starting at UCLA in the fall majoring in CS. I know that no prior experience is necessary but I've seen from my other D's experience at UCSD that it would be very helpful and those that have some prior knowledge do have an advantage due to the quick pace (assuming UCLA is as quick-paced as UCSD in CSE). I can teach her some preliminary info myself but would like to focus on what she'll see in CS31 to start with. In CS31, is the language used Java, C++, or C (or multiple)? Is UNIX used to compile/run/turn-in the programs or is some other method used? Does the class use MS VisualDev? Do you have any other tips that would be helpful for her so she can hit the ground running? |
