Keeping Fresh

Name: Anonymous 2012-01-03 12:08

Hello /prog/. Don't normally come on these boards, but I have a relatively simple question that I think you could help me with.

I've finished my first semester of Comp Science, and learned a fair bit of Python programming in the process (not the best programming language, I know).

Basically, now that the class is over and I'm not being exposed to the Python language on a regular basis, I was wondering what /prog/ does to keep up to date on their programming knowledge? If anyone could suggest some projects to start on, or a database of sample problems to just do in spare time, I'd really appreciate it. Otherwise, just discuss what you do on a daily basis to maintain your knowledge.

I appreciate it.

I read research papers, books, study and learn new languages.
I recommend reading SICP, learning Haskell/ML, Scheme/a Lisp (not Clojure). Deciding what to do after is up to you, so just keep trying new things, both on the practical and theoretical sides of CS, until you find something that really interests you. By that time, you will hopefully have an informed general view of what CS is and does, and know how to write programs, too.

That's because most shitposters here come directly from /g/. Don't let the imageboards deceive you.
