I finished in 2000 - All we used was C++. We did a lot of algorithmic design using OOP - tons of trees, sorts, and file structures. UGH file structures. We used a lot of things in c++ that I haven't seen since, but would be great to know - class templates, for example. I can write a class that creates a linked list out of any data type I pass to it. Very cool, but I haven't used any of it since school.

Interesting. Most of the ones around here are C++. Java is also taught if you want it. But the main idea is to learn how to code before you learn a language. > -----Original Message----- > From: Cantrell, Adam [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, January 21, 2003 10:53 AM > To: CF-Community > Subject: RE: Hmmm.
