Is the course learning Java or an introduction to programming? It looks like the old course was based on learning C and C++, but now it seems like they have focused on Java for easier learning / usage.
I have gone through some stuff on the C and C++ curriculum and it does look very worthwhile (although it is discontinued), but the Java program looks much weaker, only covering basic algorithms and skipping pointers, etc.
- dget 16y agoA lot of the AB test was learning Java (took it in Spring 08). Despite that, I loved the class because of my teacher, who taught us enough that I was running into things through my sophomore year that I learned from the class. Unless your school has a particularly good teacher, I'd recommend self-studying it, since you seem to get along fine doing that.
