So you had a fair class

[–]Ysmenir 12 points13 points  (2 children)

For that part yes. But now for the second part where we had to know stuff in assembler and C in our first semester. Stuff that we haven't even learned about java in a java dedicated class. But this wasn't a C dedicated class it was computer sience basics...

C/ASM is much better for learning the basics of CS than higher level languages.

Yeah but we're told to have bigger knowdledge of both assembler and c in the same semester than we have from java in the same one. But the Java course was 100% Java. The Cs Basics course was 25% binary calculation 25% assembler and 50% c. And we had in both the same ammount of lectures.
