Someone who took 6.001 without taking 6.046 would be a shitty programmer and someone who took 6.046 without taking 6.001 would be a shitty programmer. They're orthogonal and both necessary.

It's not a language-pertinent class, it appears to be more or less a run through CLRS. To the extent that they have to write code they seem to use generic algol-y pseudocode.

A language-agnostic course. Hm, I might consider watching this.

ALGOL was good, FORTRAN and CPL-derived languages were not.

ALGOL introduced lexical scoping and nested functions.
