spent an hour over my actually scheduled office hours because a) I can’t stand the idea of not helping someone when I can and b) this kid used a pointer in python because “it was a list” but python made it a list of lists
but also like straight up 50% of the problems I got could have been solved if they’d had types ( or at least, they wouldn’t have had a program that type checked -- so instead of being like “my program compiles and doesn’t pass the tests” it’s “my program just doesn’t compile and I don’t understand the error”)
by learning greek I just mean learning the Greek letters because it’s honestly a guessing game for me 90% of the time
