fail in programming languages class

Name: Anonymous 2007-08-30 23:08 ID:N2rDrFsM

so school's in session again and such.  I got my textbook for this concepts of programming languages class and it was pretty fucking win, comprehensive with regard to features and models and bringing a lot of languages into the fold like haskell, ml, scheme, prolog, etc.  so I go to the class feeling good about the whole thing, the professor's pretty cool I guess,
and then someone asks what languages we'll be working with.
"Java.  And more Java."

FUCK.

happily, though, some of the fail is negated by someone bringing up ruby in some context and the teacher saying fuck it let's do something different.  So maybe less Java than initially thought.  But still, ugh.

You are an idiot if you don't. Of course one wouldn't care much about Pascal vs. C, but Java vs Scheme? Visual Basic vs Haskell? Fortran vs Python?

Java doesn't even do OO properly. It's a terrible language for pretty much anything.

One word, the forced Java :(
