This is the same advice I give to evry1 asking what's the best course to take in the university. If you feel you like choma-ing makaa (Bsc Wood Science) sit for it. With the passion you have you'll make it. On Tue, Feb 22, 2011 at 12:37 PM, Paul Kevin <paultitude@gmail.com> wrote:

*choma-ing makaa (Bsc Wood Science) sit for it. With the passion you have you'll make it.* Ahh Kennedy bwana, you mislead the young chap! Bsc Wood Science and Technology (WST) has a lot to do with forest conservation and maximising the use/life of lumber resources than overseeing their destruction. An excellent course for a `leader of tommorrow`, I must add :-)

"I know im trying to do alot but im enjoying it" You are enjoying it.... I'd say go for it". In my opinion you can still do much more. Think about Computer Science or Electrical Engineering Steve ----- "john Karanja" <jkaranja99@yahoo.com> wrote:

If its languages, id advice you do the fun courses. I taught myself languages, and when I went to UNI, i found their teaching style boring. In the end, ill recommend Comp Science On Tue, Feb 22, 2011 at 12:55 PM, Steve Obbayi <steve@sobbayi.com> wrote:

Well, they are nice but i'd tell you to start playing with a couple of interesting languages. If i could time travel, I'd pick - C - You have to learn data structures and algorithms - (Pointers, linked lists, Binary trees, low level sockets etc) - Python - Nifty for quick programming. Interesting standard library - Erlang - Distributed programming? - Lisp/Scheme - Why not? I could write everything using () and planning to do mysql,java,ajax etc. Deeper MySQL knowledge would be gained by learning set theory, relational model, and why btrees are used for indices i.e. All this comes off the basic knowledge acquire from DS & algos. Java and AJAX would be left to you as an exercise by your lecturer I know im trying to do alot but im enjoying it. What would be your advice to
take in uni and advice to do now. Thanks.
I'd also start playing with flex, bison, minix/linux/bsd code. CS is nice, but start early, it pays to do
