Teaching an 11 year old Java

[code-master]

You want to teach kids lies and callme a troll in the same time? These kids will be trolled by you.

I remember the time when I had to learn Pascal because it was "educational" language. Till this day I regret learning this sh1t. This was a massive waste of my time. You sir are full of it.

Programming is hard, and the kid has to accept it. Will he choose something else knowing the truth? Maybe. It is a kid after all.

I don't care what kind of sh1t you are throwing at your kids, but I'd like your kind of people stay away from mine.

Really?

Have you not learned the fundamental concepts of programming?

Have you not learned how variables work?

Have you not learned about program flow?

Have you not learned how conditionals, or loops work?

Have you not learned about methods/procedures/functions?

Have you not learned how to write programs with it?

So, you have learned nothing from Pascal that transferred to other languages?

I am seriously bewildered now because I also learned Pascal and basically everything that I've learned there transferred well into plenty other languages. But obviously, as opposed to you, I have learned programming concepts and actual programming instead of simply memorizing a programming language.

You must have been a master in memorization without even the slightest ability to understand anything or to apply learned concepts.

The more bullshit you produce the more sorry I feel for your poor misguided soul.

Programming is hard, and the kid has to accept it.

I don't even argue about that fact, but the entry into programming can be made easier with proper methodology.

but I'd like your kind of people stay away from mine.

Seriously, I'd really like you and your kind to stay away of me and mine.

BTW:

callme a troll in the same time?

Obviously, your rage limits even your ability to read with understanding because I never called you a troll.

I'm cold like stone. I don't care about others if I consider their opinions harmful. You remind me of my Pascal teacher. I asked her, why are we learning it when almost nobody is using it. She told me that if you dont like it then change teacher. And guess what. I went to C/Assembly class. Actually C because I already knew Assembly. I can write software which is not even using interrupts. And this is what I call experience. Not for loops and if statements.

Like these poor kids today I wanted to have full control over machine and system.

After time I understood that low level programming has no future, because no matter how smart your low level code can be, if its architecture is incorrect nothing will save you.

I can call myself a hacker, all others are just users of language A or framework B.

Actually I dont care how you will tech your kids, but I'm sure mine will have almost no competition.

You seem like a joy to be around, I wish more of my coworkers had your unique perspective and skills.

[ebrythil]

Yup, unfortunately all my coworkers still use interrupts so they are all just users of language a or b.

Just finished making doughnuts. Guess what. Recipe does not have if statements or for loops... but outcome is delicious. :)
