|
|
Was using the internet in a class room while a computer class was being conducted, and was able to follow most of the lesson, because all of the commands for the language were in English. I wish I had known this, because I might have made a habbit of sitting in the class a bit more often. My question. Has anybody attended a computer class of sorts since they have been in Korea, and iff so ,how did you find it? |

That's the same for every language; C, C++, Java, Fortran, etc. There are no "foreign language" versions of any commonly used coding languages.
I haven't taken any language courses in Korea, but judging by how education in Korea usually works, I'd be scared to. There's probably very little theory taught, and not much attention given to flow charts. I'd imagine korean development houses deal with more than an average amount of bug chasing.
If it compiles without errors, it's good! |

I have seen the same thing at my university. The students were learning C+, and practicing on the computer screens. Any one know how they accessed the right page in the computer to do their stuff. Am a little envious when I see second year students who used to be my fresmen students now lugging around heavy books about computer languages. |
