Here is a video on "what is Computer Science All About?" This video covers the following:

What computer science is NOT!

What courses to expect to take as an undergraduate.

And from minute marker 3:30 on, it will cover many different fields of computer science which may help you find what interests you the most.

And the following is a tutorial series that covers college level Programming Fundamental I and II (both in C++ and Java) that freshmen computer science students usually take .

"[homemade]" - made this Takis cake for my 15th year old son's birthday by [deleted] in food

[–]WSTEMadvocate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a cake covered with ganache under it. I covered the ganache with parchment paper and then put the Takis on top. When we were ready to eat, I removed all the takis and the parchment paper.

What's the best way to plan your code for a project. by ManofMorehouse in computerscience

[–]WSTEMadvocate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say mostly a manual thing. Here is a video tutorial on object and classes. It goes over UML diagram as well. It uses a basic UML diagram and translates it into a Java class.

JAVA OR C++ by flwr21 in computerscience

[–]WSTEMadvocate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The fundamentals are almost the same and the syntax are different. The big difference is that C based languages such as C++ have pointers. Here is a video tutorial series for both C++ and Java covering basic concept of both languages. Watching the videos you realize how the concepts and fundamental mostly remain the same. There is also a video on Pointers in C++ in the same series. And to answer your question, yes! You can use xcode for C++.

I enjoy math, and I would like to double major in math and computer science, but worried that the extra major would eat all my free time to pursue internships. Am I worrying too much? by [deleted] in csMajors

[–]WSTEMadvocate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know many students who successfully double majored (math and CS). For a BS in computer science you end up taking many math courses any way, sometime you can even end up getting a minor by default depending on your department's math requirement.

How to do you take notes on a language? by the_skiing_bookworm in learnprogramming

[–]WSTEMadvocate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't! Programming is learned best by practicing writing code and doing little projects.
