She just wants to make money. More so, BLM is becoming irritating.

I hope you won't kill yourself in the long run?

She is tricking you and you are falling for it. You better wake up.

Politics

Really? Arrest am make we see

Covid-19 has come to stay, if we wait for vaccine before we can reopen schools we will wait till eternity.

Na only God fit safe pesin with all these fallen watermelon

Naija I hail thee

Igbo amaka, oya collect your Biafra.

Eh eh! This is new to me sha.

just saying hi na

Thank you. Hope those bugs aren't too shitty to Debug?

peterangelo:
Coder2client u again

Wetin i do na

Buhari must hear this

May his gentle soul rest in perfect peace. Life is full of joy and pain, sorry and happiness.

Huh

Don't even think about it cos you won't get the ticket

Good luck to him

Huh

Ausrichie:
This is ridiculously untrue. CS goes miles beyond computer development, if a new OS is about to be made who do you think they will call? If a new processor is about to be made and the designers need people to design the ISA who do you think they will call? If a new network transfer protocol like TCP or UDP is about to be made who do you think will be called? What about Virtual Machines, Machine learning algorithms, Programming languages etc. Computer science is more than Software engineering though it does concern coding but it is also has a lot to do with Mathematics.

If you read me well, I didn't dispute that. In the context of industry, software engineering is the face of computer science. You will realize that most of the technologies you listed above are made for software engineering purposes, which industries use for their end product that users see.

OP your question is ambiguous. How do you mean by develop Africa continent?

sweetsell:
Only a fool will ask such question.
Just so you know if you are yet to visit SA, it is beta developed than the like Hungry Austria even the UK. I will say only France and Germany are the main 2 countries beta developed than SA in Europe. That is the country you are comparing Nigeria that will never be developed till Jesus return with. Craz de your head.

Is there any country as Hungry?

Gates and mark are not qualified to be called a computer scientist. If you speak of Alan Turing, Tim Berners-Lee, E. Djikstra, James Gosling, then you are talking, you basically lack the knowledge of who computer scientist are. You just mentioned mark and Gate who are great and notable computer programmers but you didn’t understand that they been a programmer is not anything close to CSC. The people I mentioned above developed some of the in-depth knowledge of how your present computer thinks. And the god of computing science Alan Turing is the father of computing scientist and am sure I can code more than him and he can’t stand mark nor gate when it comes to coding but they are nothing close to him in computing science.

All I am doing is to twist your brain that programming is just a small part of computing science.

All those who you have mentioned are computer scientists, I'm aware of that. Programming is a fractional part of computer science, yes, I'm pretty sure of that. But if I ask you to answer my question, would you be truthful to yourself by saying nothing but the absolute truth? Why did you study CSC? To become a good programmer or a computer scientist?
Remember, you cannot be a good programmer without the knowledge algorithm. And to become a good computer scientist you have to dedicate your life in the field just like those you've mentioned.

The professors are teaching students to be industry ready, which although you have your own part to play. And to be industry ready is considered being a good software engineer /developer which is considered to be the face of computer science. Even, most industries are not too much into CSC degree which yourself is aware of rather your problem solving skills which is embedded in DSA.

stanliwise:
you are just speaking dust. I bet you didn’t study CSC from the way you speak. And what has CSC got to do with being an expert in a language. Infact most of my Lecturers are not close to how good I was in programming back in school but they were great computing Scientist than I was at then. CSC is beyond coding. CSC is all about computing data and creating algorithms, storing data, transfering data. It basically has not much to do with computer it self. Computer is a by-product of CSC and the language of communicating with such machine is also a product of CSC. So programming language is not anything close to CSC.

If CSC is all about computing data and creating algorithms, storing data, transfering data then self taught programmers can do a lot better in that area just like gates and mark did. Csc is just the foundation, the system won't teach you to be good at it.

TheGodlessGod:
I want to learn programming language and I also don't want it to affect my school studies.

I don't know the duration it will take to learn most of it(Java, c, c++ etc).

Is it better to learn it myself or go to cyber cafe guru to teach me??

I know you've been told that know those languages will help you in the tech world. But I tell you, don't make mistakes of learning all of them rather focus on one language, I will recommend industry focus language "Java". Be good at it, and solve problems when it comes to Java, join algorithm classes, join Java groups, learn clean code keep learning.

CS major is just like Jack of all trades master of none. As a CS grad, I was just reading to pass my exams. Tell me, how do you expect CS major to be expert in Java, c++, pascal, vb, algorithm, python Fortran, cobol, networking etc and still claim to be productive when he/she has not successfully implemented any of these core languages in a production?

After my school, I had to start all over by myself. This time, it was Java and I can tell you that I am very proud of doing so. I learn so much by myself.


So, self taught programmers are goal oriented and not like the school conventional way of programming.

He go loose

2020 is a historic year.

peterangelo:
Algorithm is a step by step in solving a pitfall or problem.


Knowing aw topic trend u must try to know or find out the steps or algorithm.

Is like u don't knw wat programming is all about, u thought is about the code.

Go n learn, and stop been proud



Guy think b4 commenting

How long have you been writing code?

Anybody can define what algorithm is, in fact, a toddler can define it. But can you tell me how algorithm works, how to implement it in a project?

You sound more like a novice in programming world.

The question to you now is what does algorithm has to do with a post on nairaland that has hundreds of views and doesn't get to the front page?
