^ No, I wouldn't say so if you're somewhat computer literate and can pick up on things easily.

Maybe consider taking visual basic (110 i believe) instead if you're just using it as a GPA booster, python can be tricky for beginners who have trouble familiarizing themselves with the code language

it can be hard if you don't really understand things like math. everything's very .... structured. i got an A- in that course with no coding experience (I was a business student) but I am more technically inclined than most.

Math? I wouldn't say you need any sort of strong math background for cmpt... but I think I understand what you're getting at. You need to be able to look at say a script of code and understanding what runs when and how rearranging code changes what happens etcetc.

Jgre~ you going to class today? lol

Have you guys been studying? I'm honestly still only around chapters 4-6...

Hm.. It's honestly pretty hard to say with how unreliable (imo at least) the weather network is.

It says that by the evening/overnight it'll just be pouring on the mountain.

I've been here since ~9 am and have watched the snow fall get wild and die down in such a short amount of time.

Thx for feedback guys, I'm fine at math usually.

Is coding just like writing codes for webpages? I'm sort of familular with basic html, is that gonna help me? lol

Jtan I'm not going to class, maple ridge is pretty brutal for snow. FF civic with bald summer tires isn't my idea of fun.

^

Coding in python I wouldn't say is very similar to webpages as a python script generally runs in a sequential order... but I would say a background in encoding for web pages would be beneficial.

Lol ff civic with bald tires ftw!

^ No lol. Who's your prof? Brad Bart?

Python is just some freeware open source programming language that's used for like... very basic programming.

^ You want to buy a laptop... just for this course?

Haha if your current laptop is genuinely outdated and you're financially stable whats to stop you from buying something you want?

I don't think you'd need to buy a laptop for this though haha.

Taking cmpt you'll also get access to the CSIL labs to do work lol.
