Dijkstra or Hopper
Grace Hopper, because fuck the male patriarchy dominating CS because they exclude women.
>>54935691
Hopper, helped make the compiler
>>54935691
dijkstra
Cool. Hopper is popular here. I'll go with her.
Dammit, I didn't get to submit it. :(
She was definitely an admirable woman and very important to programming language structure.

Noam Chomsky
Have fun

I will but I'm disappointed in myself for waiting till the last minute and not accomplishing in time. I was locked from submitting five minutes after I finished.
ffffff...

Lol, dumbass

I know I am. I'm 29 and taking Programming Logic over the summer. We will be using Python for Programming Logic but I'll be learning C as my first language next semester. It was either C or Java. They offer C++ but you have to take C beforehand.

And oddly enough, they don't offer Python as its own course...
Did I mess up in choosing C over Java?
Is it easy to transition to Java once learning C? I hear Java is sloppier as a language but more widely used in the job market. Is this true?
I'm transferring to Uni after next semester so I'll have two more years of some flexibility I guess.
