I really wish schools would teach compiled languages before scripting languages.

  What's the current CS101 standard? I know when I was in college in the late 1990s, it went from Pascal to C++ to Java.

    In college, sure - they actually started us on C/C++ and then had us work in ASM for discrete math... But in middle and high school now I believe they teach...whatever the teacher wants. So a lot of js, python, vb...

  Great news, python is compiled, you got your wish.
  • ilikenwf 3y ago
    Unless you use pyc it's only as compiled if you count php as compiled. Just in time bytecode compilation does not a compiled language make.

      Maybe you should have been more precise when you made your wish to the monkey paw. Because python is certainly a valid answer to the comment you wrote. Also I think you’re completely wrong but that’s neither here nor there.
