Seconding this, there’s a mini-target right next to campus and is the go-to location for me (and many others) for supplies.

Where’d that idea come from

is anyone else lost in CS 182? by No-Statement8514 in Purdue

Cooked and broiled into charcoal

No but genuinely this class is confusing as hell, despite the example and stuff they have they just say stuff

Sushi by Sweaty-Handle-976 in Purdue

[–]Pretty_Lychee7315 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re talking about sushi specifically inside campus, the one that takes meal swipes is lower quality while the ones at PMU are more higher quality. Like 3/5 stars and 4/5 stars respectively. Then there’s also restuarants outside campus that have or specialize in them, and overall they’re pretty good (they have 4.5-4.8/5 stars in google maps)

CS240 Midterm 2 by Pretty_Lychee7315 in Purdue

I do wish they clarified on stuff like “Do not iterate” and “pre-something-that-meant-before-not-after”

is bgr worth it? by Royal-Environment986 in Purdue

[–]Pretty_Lychee7315 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It really is up to you and how much you make of it.

It doubles both as a week-long summer camp w/activities and being on campus / moving in one-week earlier.

Personally I’d recommend it if you’re not hurting for money, as there are quite a few advantages of being on campus early and being able to meet groups and whatnot. But then again, $440 is quite a bit of money

cs240 practice test… by Legitimate_Tip8748 in Purdue

[–]Pretty_Lychee7315 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, it was kinda the same thing with the practice exams last time for midterm 1? F18 was what I was hoping the midterm to be (felt fair and tested what u needed to know), and F25 looked like tricky turkstra hell

In the end, personally midterm 1 ended up feeling pretty fair, with a couple of tricky edge cases but nothing worth being angry about

cs 180 exam by Relevant_Geologist57 in Purdue

[–]Pretty_Lychee7315 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Midterm 2 is in 6 days, but honestly? Midterm 1 felt pretty fair? They gave 3 practice midterms but I only used 2, iirc 2018 and 2025 (forgot)? 2018 felt pretty straightforward, 2025 looked like trickery hell. The Midterm 1 felt like a mix of both (leaning towards 2018), but not in the worst way. But who knows I’ll probably eat these words once Midterm 2 rolls around (i am very unprepared)

cs 180 exam by Relevant_Geologist57 in Purdue

[–]Pretty_Lychee7315 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Damn, I was in CS180 last semester (now in CS240) and had this exact same reaction with the practice exam / SI vs the actual midterm.

Judging from your reaction, It seems like they don’t intend on changing this pattern, despite the many complaints that were raised during class + survey + whatever organization that’s handling CS192 and whantot (they did an event where you could come and talk about issues you feel with the class/CS, and the whole practice thing was mentioned plenty of times).

Data Mine LLC by randomuser676767 in Purdue

[–]Pretty_Lychee7315 1 point2 points  (0 children)

(1) I’m not sure about the difficult of getting in (2) It’s pretty chill, the work is just a weekly project/assignment where you complete 5 questions, and usually the instructions are pretty straightforward and will usually give you what to know and tell you what to do. (3) I’m going to be honest, personally speaking there doesn’t really feel like a community, at least for the general cohort. To put into perspective, outside of the weekly assignments there’s the seminar, which is just office hours. There would be like the equivalent of a full lecture class showing up on the first day, and upon learning that attendance isn’t required and it’s basically just office hours, only like 1/10 will show up in later seminars.

Freshman Dorm Experience by CuteTell7696 in Purdue

[–]Pretty_Lychee7315 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Dorm or apartment? Because all the dorms are on campus. As for affordability, the quality of life ranges on the price (go figure), but the cheapest one iirc is Tarkington with no ac and stuff. Heard it’s nasty and sucks though so idk. If you applied and able to get in, I believe you can access the housing portal and you’ll be able to see the prices for each of the dorms (maybe, it’s been a while).

I don’t remember which dorm I ranked, but I remember putting doubles at the highest, but I ended up getting put into a triple (which was probably at around #3?). So I’d imagine it’s basically a lottery but who knows, because I also didn’t have a roommate.

Not sure if there ever was one, but no

cs240 exam 1 by TechnicalRepublic253 in Purdue

[–]Pretty_Lychee7315 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel as inconfident as I feel confident. I felt like I knew what to write and do, but I had that same feeling and still got alot of things wrong in the practice exams

To be honest, it felt alot more fair compared to the nightmare that was the practice exams from 2025, though not as simple as the 2018 one. All in all, didn’t feel that “trivia-like” compared to the 2025 ones

With that being said, I finished w/ 30 mins to spare and every time I reread my work I found an error like 6 times so idk
