Anyone in this major wanna give me some personal experiences with the classes you have to take? Or if you know of people who graduated with it, what are they doing after getting the degree?
Don't do it ull have to sit at a computer for hours wen doin assignments And command prompt is a bich
So uh. finished my masters degree recently. It depends on what they teach you honestly. If you like coding on your freetime I would recommend choosing this path. else don't bother. it requires alot. like said it depends on what they teach you. some stuffs not even useful and boring af.... automatons as an example. barely survived this. rofl. Currently working independently.
I have to take a variation of literally every math course my university has to offer with the exception of one. Its not fun. I know a lot of people choose IT over Computer Science because of that. I can't speak for all universities but a lot of math majors switch over to Computer Science. Personally, I ******* hate math. If you have a capable professor you won't have a hard time with the coding. Learning the languages aren't hard after C++ since they're all pretty similar. I think Python is the easiest. My C++ professor is this extremely incapable (like she knows nothing) Indian lady with this thick annoying thank you come again accent who just reads **** she finds online word for word for about 10-30 mins before leaving class an hour early. If it weren't for a **** load of Youtube tutorial videos I probably would have failed the course last semester (bc this hoe cannot teach stg). I found this website a few months ago and thats helped me a bit too. Easier to just learn as much as you can yourself before coming to / starting class. I've thought about changing majors a ton of times because of all the math. If I could pay someone to take them for me I wouldn't hesitate. Esp if you end up with one of those old ass "lul but its soooo eZ" profs who barely explain anything bc they've been doing Math since the dinosaur age. If I were you I'd just check that website out and see how I felt about it. I can't speak about it too much since I'm only a sophomore. Junior after this semester. For me the most boring part of Computer Science is learning about binary code. I wouldn't say its something I've enjoyed doing but its not something that I cannot see myself doing either if that makes sense. Still haven't figured out where all of these ******* math courses fall in w/ the coding. @Benoon have u tl;dr idk but math sucks tho
I didn' have too much math courses actually. but yh, everything starts off math. Deterministic finite automaton, regularity and stacks are strong on math. C++ or w/e u studyin rn doesn't require much math. you'll start using it when u start third year i suppose. binary, hexadecimal and octal to decimal has much math in it. Personally couln't use programmer' calculator so yh.. binary wasn't too boring actually, but not useful, have that. hope you don't get automatons for your sake. shts cancerous affffff. ~ forgot mentioning reverse engineering and assembly related stuff. high on math aswell. ~
I'm a Music Performance major so idk what to even tell you lawl. I wanted to do comp sci but I'm garbage at math and I don't feel like struggling through Calculus and all that other bs. I only like working with computers not doing all those damn numbers.
Ugh... I'm not good at math but I would much rather take that than to deal with chemistry, genetics, micro biology, bio chemistry, ecology, etc
why did you choose Biology in the first place?? I would suggest to talk with your college/university registrar to help you with this, they will likely get you into the program that you can work best in.But if you are focused on being in Computer Science be prepared to spend hours doing complicated assignments and try and get a head start on some coding like Visual Basic/Java/C++ because that will help you understand it incase your prof is bad. If you want a taste of what computer science is like then go try out some programming right now. Try those free online courses and see if this is what you want. Good luck
LMAO Totally true. Math has nothing with c++. I dont see any c++ requires everyone to learn all **** math courses.
