Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

Python and Computer Science.

So I am now in college and I am in a orientation class that I can no longer get out of. But for those who are interested in programming might have an interest in this topic. I was wondering if I were to post some of my assignments, would you guys find that interesting? This is the very first class of Computer science at my school which is why I ask. If it seems like there's positive feedback, i'll begin posting some. The assignments are in python though. It's not a hard language to pick up if you know some programming, just kinda annoying in my opinion. Just let me know what you guys think.

Assignment 1
Assignment 2
Assignment 3
Assignment 4
Assignment 5

Re: Python and Computer Science.

I'm about to go to college for computer science, and I know there are a few others that are on their way.

I think it'd be nice to see what we'd be getting into.

Re: Python and Computer Science.

Same here.
I believe my Uni's notes are protected by copyright but not the assignments they hand out to us.

I can provide assignments for:
-Haskell (great to get introduced to functional programming)
-Java
-C
-C++
-Introductions to Git, Ruby or Bash

University: Imperial College London (usually listed in the top 10; http://www.topuniversities.com/universi … kings/2016)

Feel free to PM me!

Btw what college did you entered? I'm also interested in your year schedule.

Re: Python and Computer Science.

oh hey me three (four?)

but the assignments are in java and probably wouldn't stump anyone for more than a few minutes so I don't see the benefit except syntax similar to the almighty C# //forums.everybodyedits.com/img/smilies/tongue

Re: Python and Computer Science.

1) Print "Hello World"
2) Print some fancy ASCII art... y'know like writing with block letters and stuff.
3) Accept three integers. Output the sum and the average.
4) Accept one four-digit integer. Output the sum of the digits.
5) A doctor wants an appointment-scheduling prompt. Ask for Monday or Tuesday, Morning or Afternoon, and a time, outputting the user's responses with each question.
6) Calculate employee holiday bonuses using this information and spit the value back out:

Hidden text

7) Convert a given Gregorian calendar year to Chinese Zodiac year (Rat, Ox, Tiger, etc). Given algorithm: (year-1972) % 12. 0 is Rat, 1 is Ox, 11 is Pig.
8) Accept a string and a character from the user. Count how many times the character is in the string.
9) Calculate a user's GPA: The number of credits a student earns per course is the grade points multiplied by the credit hours of that course. The average is the sum of this product for all classes divided by the total number of credit hours. User can input as many grades as they want.
10) Knapsack problem: Accept a bag's capacity and the weight of four items. Determine the most items that can be carried (up to one of each) without exceeding the bag's limit.

In hindsight, these problems have been getting more difficult than the previous. How fun!

edit: I DID warn you guys how difficult these are

Re: Python and Computer Science.

If anyone wants to try out challenges in any language: https://projecteuler.net/
There are currently 565 challenges, some very hard and some very easy.

Would love to hear of coursework assignments, something meatier than Cutting Triangles.

Re: Python and Computer Science.

@Hummerz5 all of them were extremely easy except for the first two. I have no idea how to send data to a printer in Java.

Re: Python and Computer Science.

you may be overthinking this, i would be extremely surprised if "print" in that context meant print on a piece of paper rather than print to a command line

Re: Python and Computer Science.

For the most part my assignments have been easy. This is an introductory class that is very very basic(I regret not skipping this class and moving to the next). But, it is a good class to start in if you're not confident in programming. I attend Oregon State University, which isn't the hardest college, but has a decent engineering college. I'll go ahead and edit my original post for the assignments I've been given so far.

I attend Oregon State University, I am taking 17 credits, (12 is minimum, 15 is recommended to stay on track to graduate, yet some are classes I've already taken) and I am taking a fictional literature class, calculus, cs orientation, public speaking, and health. So far, all of those classes were put into my schedule no matter how I wanted my schedule so that I complete my prerequisites. Hope that helps!

Re: Python and Computer Science.

Sorry for double posting, just saying that i updated the list and put my first 5 assignments up. That's all our assignments up till midterms.

Yep. That's kinda the point of this thread. I went to the first two lectures, and haven't been to one since, and still have an A in the class. I am kinda telling everyone, who's entering college, to do some research on the classes they sign up for, cause i could have skipped this class. And the next one.

What college do you go to? And also do you ever get to do more complex networking, or is it all kinda left to research groups and internships to teach you that.
