It felt really weird answering these questions. On one hand, it's ez points, on the other hand it's just almost insulting to have such questions on an academic institution. The upside is that the practicals were high level, so maybe thats why there was little emphasis on theory, but still.
Their excuse with lame exams is that they have a lot of students and too few professors/teachers. So they come up with simple (but often trick) questions and multiple choice.
Am i exagerating, or is this one of the reasons why compsci is mocked so much by mathfags?

Compsci is mocked by everyone because it's a massive meme and the quality of education varies more wildly than my mental state when the bi-polar kicks in just right.

The sad truth is most of the state schools and a good chunk of the private unis in the usa are total shit tier that cater to the lowest common denominator thanks to banks and unis colluding and pushing the "you can't afford NOT to go to college it's your future". American universities outside of the elite ones are the laughing stock of the world. German and Swiss engineering firms outright refuse to hire American educated engineers for example.
Enjoy your $100k student debt.

I think it should just be called "matricies."

Most algebra classes do teach matricies without ever showing their use in solving systems of equations.
