damn so much diversity, we just stick with C for most courses unless you want to go out of your way to pick something else

Well C is a good language. Easy to read (compared to C++) and it teaches about memory management, pointers and other stuff.

Also I thought you guys did Java for later courses since C doesn't support OOP.

 

[dav53521]

Ah yeah we use JavaScript/TypeScript for OOP

Damn do you guys also have to use HTML/CSS along side it or just pure js/ts?

tyy I'll give that a go

I wanna learn something like C or rust - but I have no idea what I can do with them - and plus I only know Python and FutureBasic5 (yeahhh Year 9/10 elective IST thanks for that one)

I mean rust has https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ which I think is respected by the rust community and there are plenty of project idea repos on github

yeah I've had a look at it - doesn't seem too bad to go through

but i more mean what can I actually build with rust / what is it used for irl

Isn't a pretty low level language so you could write a compiler if you want to. I found this which might help https://github.com/practical-tutorials/project-based-learning#rust

But Rust is a general purpose language so you can use it for whatever you want.

 

[SadCeliac]

Ahaha, Arduino was the language I learnt from my Y9 elective



Learn C, it's really user friendly, there's no non-sensical clutter or weird features, it's quite straightforward

Hmm yeah I think I heard that too, pretty sure C can't be used for anything because it's just too simple to learn, and there aren't any risks with corrupting memory accidentally, and also things like Scratch and Python are way too difficult for a regular person to learn

that's pretty cool, but again, what does that practically do for me irl

Nah people believed that C was a bit too hard to learn which is why C++ was invented.

I know it is. Saying that C++ is was made because C was a bit too hard is also sarcasm.
