python学校,Python在学校教？

I''ll be a college freshman this fall, attending Florida Institute of

Tech studying electrical engineering.

I was considering taking some classes in programming and computer

science, and I happened to notice that everything taught is using C++.

After further research, it seems to me that C++ seems to be the

dominating language in universities.

By comparison, our local community college teaches a few classes in VB,

Java, Javascript, C++, and for some reason, PASCAL.

I''m certianly not against any of this, but out of curiousity does

anyone know of a school that teaches Python?

"I have the students learn Python in our undergraduate and graduate

Semantic Web courses. Why? Because basically there''s nothing else with

the flexibility and as many web libraries," said Prof. James A.

Hendler.

There are many. Wartburg College

will interest you.

I''ll gratuitously add that, even though I''m personally fond of

C++, I think teaching it as is done in colleges and high schools

(!) amounts to child abuse. It''s wildly inappropriate.

C++ programming requires you to

massively invest your thinking

first into the setup of your

build environment (can only be

beaten by Java here).

This is where the real abuse

starts. Plain C++-baby-style

(with some structs and cin/cout)

is just fun, despite the required

''variable prototyping'' (which is

not that bad for a beginner).
