What an “exciting” Monday, last minute announcements saying that for our next semester elective module (IGRA) will not be teaching C, but JAVA. Here is the quote, “The implementation language for IGRA is JAVA, not C++ as you have been briefed earlier”. This sucks, how can JAVA take over C in games development. JAVA is only good for creating mini games like Yahoo Pool and WAP Games, maybe SP thinks that there are a shortage of JAVA programmers nowadays. Sad, very sad.
I am still in a dilemma whether to choose JAVA which I hate, but can manage, or Design which I cannot manage but do not hate it. Sigh. Life sucks when you have to make difficult decision.
Anyway the exams timetable is out, which is a good thing, I can start to study earlier(as if I will). What a sad and disappointed day. =(
Haiyo, there goes my dream of being a game designer….
i’ll see what i can do, maybe can change the course back to C++
thats the problem of singapore’s education system.. got to cater to the demand and supply of the country’s workforce.. and they ignore our dreams and wants completely!
Ya, and that sucks, our dream of becoming a game programmer is runied because of JAVA or rather SP. Grrr.
hehehe relax ah … JAVA suXz … C rulesZ! Heheheh but in life things don’t always go smoothly for all of us. But I believe things always happen for a reason … perhaps it may not seem a good reason to you all, but SP may think otherwise. So for guys taking IGRA, bear with it, for misfortunes bring fortunes … =)
heh, its good to have optimistic ppl like u dna.. always look at the bright side of things….. gd thing

LOL, think i take IGRA, met with the ICT heads today, Mr Quek and Ms Georgina Phua, both said IGRA is not teaching programming language is teaching the methods to create interative computer graphics, instead of using C as a medium, they use JAVA as a medium. But the techniques can be applied to C also. They will be using JAVA, if you want to use C for that, you need to explore on your own.
She takign design mah, at least VB we together LOL
