    What are ways to handle a challenging courses? Such as Introduction to cryptography?

    Posted: 26 Dec 2017 07:10 AM PST

    Spring 2018 I am taking an introductory cryptography course with coding theory mixed with it. Bases upon the feedback from everyone else within my school and major, everyone says that it is tough and I wanted to know the opinions of anyone who has taken this course as well and could give me some advice of how I could be prepared for the class.Any piece of advice will do fine I just want to be able to pass the class with a B or A-. As far as knowledge of the subject I know a little bit about cryptography from my discrete math course and recently Algorithm analysis course! So I know the basics of it! Thank you to whoever has any advice in advance! also this the book we are using for the class as well. https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51YRJRH66NL._SR600%2C315_PIWhiteStrip%2CBottomLeft%2C0%2C35_PIAmznPrime%2CBottomLeft%2C0%2C-5_PIStarRatingFOUR%2CBottomLeft%2C360%2C-6_SR600%2C315_ZA(23%20Reviews)%2C445%2C286%2C400%2C400%2Carial%2C12%2C4%2C0%2C0%2C5_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg

    Computer Science is taught completely backwards

    Posted: 26 Dec 2017 07:11 PM PST

    Imagine if first Semester CS included:

    Genomics in Python (This is a crash course to Scripting and using libraries), Simple Phone/WebApp Design and a hardcore programming class in a modern scripting language (I would say in Perl or Python).

    Students would go home for the summer ready to jump into a research internship, try their hand at the app market, etc. As they got into classes like Data Structures they would have a background of knowledge having used them in their other courses.

    All of my classmates that didn't have internships or real world experience felt that there wasn't anything they could code-to-learn until after the 3rd year.

    But what if our Bioinformaticians were thrown into the Genomics in Python class Semester 1? What if CS students knew from the start how to bring their projects into the world because they took a Web/Mobile Dev class.
