Cool, computer science is actually one that I am thinking about, I see computer and science, and I assume that I automatically like it, I really know nothing about it though. What is it like? and thx that is good advice.
At first I thought computer science had something to do with...well science and I hate science. but then I found out that it was computer programming which was what I wanted to do. I actually don't know too much about it, I just know that I should be able to make programs and possibly games in the future, and I heard that you can get some good jobs with a CS major. There might other people on this site with CS majors that know more than I do.
So far I've taken Computer Science I and Calculus I (courses required for my major). Right now, I'm taking Computer Science II, Calculus II, and Discrete Structures I. In Computer Science, we're learning C++. It's not too hard for me, kinda depends on your teacher and how well he/she teaches. I think there are other languages I'll have to learn in other courses like Java and HTML.
Here is an example code you might learn in C++:
cout << "Would you like to see the contents of the array?" << endl;
cin >> answer;
if (answer == "Yes")
{
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
cout << m_array << endl; (there should be a left bracket followed by i and right bracket after m_array)
}
}
else
{
cout << "Finished." << endl;
}
It looks kinda confusing at first. cout is what displays to screen. cin is what the user inputs. The for is a for loop that repeats from 0 to 10 and displays everything in the array (which can store items in it, this one holds 10 items).
Basically the assignments we are given are to write codes for different situations, like write a program that calculates the sum/average of two numbers or write a program that displays to screen the multiplication table. It requries some thinking to figure out some of the problems, but so far I haven't been having too much trouble. I managed to barely get an A in Computer Science I and right now I also have an A in Computer Science II.
