Wondering if there are any B or C students here that pass their programming courses but lack understanding of basics and see it screws you over as you progress through your courses. AND not say anything because by the time you are in X course you are suppose to know Y and it'll be a joke if you don't and exposed as a fraud.

If this is you, how do you pass programming assignments and test?

Did this a lot for EE. Basically memorized the methodology for solving problems and did well on exams. Graduated high honors and doing well at a defense contractor. So Idk if you're good enough at faking it you can still do a lot if stuff. A lot of the time the full understanding came later, especially on the job

Depends. Never really ran into this, although it gets significantly easier if you have a better understanding than what the class actually requires. That being said, though, my only reference in terms of there being a "gap" was a really shit-tier "Intro to Computer Science" python class, and then a whole class on C# using winforms.

I can say for absolute certain that 1 class was a shitfest due to the professor, not students misunderstanding the content.

>do a bunch of required assignments
>no guidelines aside from "do it"
>only thing that ever was graded was the midterm assessment
>goes entirely against the course description
>still passed, no clue how well I actually did on anything else

???

Profit

Doing a programming book during breaks, like a new language during winter break (Python), then doing some framework (like django) during summer

Then you have enough to work on a side project

For interviews/fundamentals practice, cracking the code interview book

was literally a B/C student for first few years here
