Ausrichie:Alright I give up ![]() Both languages have their pro and cons it's up to programmers to know which language to learn for their field. C for OS dev and building games and system softwares as u rightly said And Python for data science and artificial intelligence and also for back end web programming. 1 Like |

spartan117: From your words .. seems like you're a Python developer |
Re: Computer Science ..... The Worst Course To Study In Nigeria? by Nobody: 11:46am On Mar 06, 2020 |
spartan117:True python has an active group of developers, C is everybody's property we have to always wait for GNU products or produce our own unfortunately. |
Re: Computer Science ..... The Worst Course To Study In Nigeria? by spartan117(m): 11:50am On Mar 06, 2020 |
pajosh:Nope not really I prefer to see my self as a back end developer. Python is simply my scripting language of choice for back end. But I have a special affinity for python because it was the first language I learnt and it's applicable in almost any field. |
Re: Computer Science ..... The Worst Course To Study In Nigeria? by pajosh(m): 12:00pm On Mar 06, 2020 |
spartan117: OK which Python back end technology do you use?? |
Re: Computer Science ..... The Worst Course To Study In Nigeria? by spartan117(m): 12:17pm On Mar 06, 2020 |
pajosh:I'm still a beginner so I use plain old Python and pip as a package manager. But hope to learn a framework like Django. |

Re: Computer Science ..... The Worst Course To Study In Nigeria? by Ajibel(m): 2:23pm On Mar 08, 2020 |
pajosh: There are better terms he could have used instead of weak. Pajosh, would you use C or C++ for web development? ![]() No Enyimba bashing here too ![]() |
Re: Computer Science ..... The Worst Course To Study In Nigeria? by pajosh(m): 2:31pm On Mar 08, 2020 |
Ajibel: No bro... I think that was a mistake on his own side though Because the point of concern was LEARNING Even Node Js we use now is actually C++ behind the scenes |
Re: Computer Science ..... The Worst Course To Study In Nigeria? by pajosh(m): 2:32pm On Mar 08, 2020 |
Ajibel: Lol !! Am An Enyimba fan too I was just giving an instance bro |
Re: Computer Science ..... The Worst Course To Study In Nigeria? by Nobody: 10:03pm On Mar 08, 2020 |
Ajibel:Of course python is weak and slow compared to C. Ask any person who knows computers well. Its libraries are even made with another language. C is not owned by anybody that's why it doesn't have much libraries beside ANSI has to make a library a standard before it becomes part of the C library. |

spartan117:Do you also have a phobia for frontend development like I do? Lol. I love JavaScript but I can't deal with the HTML and CSS. I'm not a girl. It's girly to sit and design the interface and colours. You know all those UI/UX stuff and all. I prefer the hardcore logic and codes. You know, working under the hood. It is the reason I half-arsed CSS. Lol. |

Ausrichie:You are some how wrong. Python and co are not weak languages, they are higher level languages and C++ is a lower level language. It depends on what you want to do, if you want to make an applicarion for a weak system like watches or so, you can learn C++ because with C++ you go to a very low level, you need the app to be highly optimized, why? there is little power availble from the device. On the other hand, if the app will run on the computer and does not requre much power, ie a bit torrent client, you should use higher level languages like Python, even there is a way to make desktop apps uisng Javascript, because, they are will suited and optimaztion is really important, since the app is not resource hungry, ie it can run on even older computers. Speed of development is usually more important than power. If you are building a big software program like AAA title video games, Phptoshop, After Effcts etc, you use C++, because of optimiztion, optimization makes it posible to run your app on as many computers as possible, thereby making your app accessible to many more potential buyers. If one wants to learn computer programming, he or she should avoid C++, and go insted for higher level languages, like Python, PHP, Javascript, learn the fundamentals of programming, ie the person can use Javascript to make even a simple todo list app, then he or she can move over to C++, apart from syntax, they are almost all the same thing, ie While loops, for loops, condtitionals, variables, arrays etc. |
Re: Computer Science ..... The Worst Course To Study In Nigeria? by Nobody: 11:20am On Mar 15, 2020 |
dometome: No, the truth is that people (I mean real hardcore programmers will even go for C, C++ or Assembly) because of speed, processors are not getting any cheaper but they are getting faster, RAM is not getting any cheaper but the speed of most RAMs are increasing and their space getting larger too but at a much slower rate. It is not necessarily about power it is about speed, Operating Systems need more speed hardware drivers need more speed too and these three languages I mentioned are needed in that case, python Java and the rest of these so called high level languages are too slow because the interpreter runs the code not the computer which means you are running a process inside a process (process is an OS stuff) the only good thing about python and Java is their flexibility (Compile once run everywhere is not possible, if you are into OS theory you will understand why) and they are also owned by a particular party. C does not have an owner neither does C++ (Assembly is like machine code therefore it can be considered as proprietary) these languages rely on organisations like ANSI and ISO to set standards for the language (and also partly on the author of the language) the rest of the job is left in the palms of the individual programmer (this is good because it makes you a stronger and better programmer). A mid level language(c and c++ are mid level Assembly is low level) is stronger than a high level language because they can handle almost everything on the computer. |

Ausrichie: You stand to be corrected in some aspects but I think you're one of the best programming guys I've seen on NL |

Re: Computer Science ..... The Worst Course To Study In Nigeria? by dometome: 4:20pm On Mar 15, 2020 |
Ausrichie:When I said speed, I meant speed of development. If an app can be made production ready with PHP, why use C++, that will take for ever, except the app will run only on low power devices, i.e. watches, (not smart watches) thermostats, or all these little devices that offer very little computing power, or a big AAA title games, you should read and Try to comprehend. All these jargons you are throwing doesn't make you a programmer. BTW, why would you make a program in Assembly in this age? Lol! Not even IBM does that. FYI, IBM uses PHP to maintain the files in their severs, I am beginning to wonder if you know what you are talking about? |
Re: Computer Science ..... The Worst Course To Study In Nigeria? by pajosh(m): 4:29pm On Mar 15, 2020 |
dometome: Bro you two are are correct .... But you know in programming there will always be trade offs |
Re: Computer Science ..... The Worst Course To Study In Nigeria? by dometome: 4:48pm On Mar 15, 2020 |
pajosh:What I am saying is this, is he asking people to go and program using machine language so that they can call themselves real programmers? I mean WTF is he talking all about? This guy will want you use C++ to make web page responsive, irrespective of th a fat that CSS that is used to do it isn't even a programming language. LOl! 1 Like |
Re: Computer Science ..... The Worst Course To Study In Nigeria? by Nobody: 10:41pm On Mar 15, 2020 |
dometome:I have finally realised that you are just one of these new programmers. I am sure you don't even understand things like OS development, compiler construction, hardware programming and speed critical software don't mention me again if you aren't asking for an explanation. Since you are so uncultured to ask what is the need of Assembly imagine if Intel Changes all their opcodes what do you think your precious PHP, Python and Java owners would do? go and ask Linus Torvalds or Ken Thompson why you would need Assembly. In fact ask yourself why Intel always releases a software manual for their Assembly code (latest one was in 2016 or 2017). There are some flaws in what I said at first true, Assembly, C and C++ must be learnt by computer science students and those who want to write applications that are fast and most especially Operating Systems, but you didn't have to call it jargon. Its a fact C and C++ can do what every single language can do (except Javascript and VBscript) this is something you can't deny this is why they are called general purpose programming languages. |
Re: Computer Science ..... The Worst Course To Study In Nigeria? by dometome: 12:30am On Mar 16, 2020 |
Ausrichie:Laughable! So If I want to make a simple calculator app on Android, I need to learn Assembly, LOL! Once again, the language you should use depends on the nature of the app, and what hardware the app will run on. Programming is not syntax, syntaxes differ but programming remains one. Learn one language, then you can easily learn others, even the mighty C++, they all use the same principles. |
