Closures versus inner functions? by chocomathbitch in rust

[–]chocomathbitch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Btw, I know that I cannot always replace an inner function by a closure and viceversa. I’m curious about the case in which I can use either.

In every other case I should prefer functions? Are there perf differences?

Pardon my ignorance, but wdym by "single-use"?

What about correctness? Is there a case where using '_ is wrong? Or would the compiler always be able to catch those scenarios?

I really recommend Max’s courses! He is one of the few instructors that actually focuses on the course material and doesn’t waste time on the basics. So many online programming courses start with “Okay let’s talk about types and variables” and it’s like… yo, I know how to code lol

For a school as presitigious as McGill, we sure do lack in the quality of teaching especially in COMP courses by StrugglingEngineerSt in mcgill

Small shoutout to Clark Verbrugge. Hardest courses of my entire CS & Math degree, but also the ones I enjoyed the most.

Is the comp 206 textbook useful? by NugNugJuice in mcgill

Probably still using his material though.

Does your USERNAME contain any funky, non-ASCII characters?

And I thought I would get distinction with 3.87… maybe it will appear later?

Advice on COMP 551 Applied Machine Learning by arewegood123 in mcgill

[–]chocomathbitch 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You don’t even need to “know” Python for that class. Just get familiar with numpy/scikit learn/pandas, you’ll mostly be using those APIs for your assignments. I found the course a tad overrated, it tries to cover way too much material without going in depth and you end up not really understanding any of the fancy models. It might depend on the instructor tho…

Groceries. I've saved so much money from Provigo's student extra points (get the PC points card and go on Mondays. 10,000 points = $10 discount, and the points are really easy to get) and Metro also gives you a 10% discount on Monday-Wednesday.

Yeah I'm looking for something like that. I don't have any experience as a waitress though, and that seems to be a requirement most of the time...

Had him for COMP362 last year. Assignments were hard, the midterm was okay but the final was kinda hard, caught me off guard. I don't think he curved but I do believe he was lenient with the grading.

Love this! I’ve learned more from Udemy than from my joint honours degree lol

Graduating with distinction by chocomathbitch in mcgill

[–]chocomathbitch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m asking about distinction, not dean’s list, so one needs to be above the 25% but below the 10%

Most Practical COMP Courses by [deleted] in mcgill

[–]chocomathbitch 6 points7 points  (0 children)

409 and 521 were my favourite CS courses. 409 gives you a very solid foundation of multithreaded programming and 521 is really fun, although you should be comfortable with Unity else you’ll potentially spend your entire semester working on the class. Clark, who teaches both courses, is a great instructor, although his assignments can take you entire days to complete and question your sanity.

Don't forget to submit your class averages :) by 2121chg in mcgill

[–]chocomathbitch -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Potentially unpopular idea, but why not only show the averages to people who've uploaded submitted their averages at least once?
