...Looks like your in for a treat, most of the negitiveness of my previously typed message will be gone(as in the one i typed NOTthe one you must insist on baggin), i am over it, i say most of you are idiots if your going to act the way you do.
siavash_s_s your an idiot. full stop
there is no content in anything to do with high school, and the only time you can understand this is when you have a *real* full time job, or are in uni, both of which i doubt you will have the capacity for.
Your an idiot, you really know that? You think that ANY high school course could line you up for the real world?
if a teach cannt fulfill a students expectation, they arent fit for the job.
i don't personally think your worth wasting time on, but does that mean the teacher can ignore you, unfortunatly for them, they cant
if a teacher *cannot* program in vb, and explain, that person doesnt have the neccesary head to teach sdd. if one, who is *meant* to know atleast 1 language cant figure out vb in <1 hour, that person deserves no less than castration.
Yeah, And just because you can't lean Bash Scripting or Regex in 5 minutes must mean your an idiot as well..
Programming languages arn't a must for SDD, infact none at all are, other than Psuedocode and Whats it called? (thier also refered to as 'RailRoad Dagrams'), which are harder to understand VB, But say, IF i was a teacher i woudn't need to know Vb, even if the student wants to use it, fine go ahead, but don't expect any help from me with it, might be able to loate some resourses for it, but i don;t KNOW it nor woudl i have to.
treelovinhippie:
For the name, you've got some obvious intelegence, unlike others,
I envy that you actually have a good SDD teacher. The thing is, until you have someone else, you'll never know what it's like to have a really shit one..... good teachers are always taken for granted!
Just emphasis my fisrt point about you, Good teachers are taken for granted, but good teachers are there because of the way the student acts, if your an asshole to a teacher, your not likely to get anything out of it are you?
have another look in the text book and what we're supposed to know for the HSC.
What a Quote i laugh at.. your blaming the BOOK for being out of date, the BOOK i hear you say! WTF! it's a BOOK! made by a company, not by the BOS, Teachers can use whatever they want, one book may be better than the othes, do you feel like buying 6 textbooks or each student at $30 each? Do you think teachers have enough time to basically write a whole book themselves? Do you think many schools can afford to buy new textbooks each year? Use the internet pal.. i thought you had some intelegence.
Is there anything about SLI, NCQ, PCI-E, dual core processors?
Naw, But still, might like to point out that it's your choice to learn about it, If you must complain, complain to someone who cares, the teacher, ask what in the sylibus says about it? complain to he Head computing teacher, the deputy, teh principal, SOMEONE will listen and set them straight, IF you don't feel comfortable talking to those people, talk to a teacher who you are comfortable talkign to and get them to pass it on, anonymously.. write a letter, etc.
Also I think that as many people have said, there is no standard, set answer to a question and many text books say different things.
Can you please tell me where there IS a standard for these things? i'd be interested in a read.. It varies state-state, country-to-country, company-to-company, there is NO set standard for the world.. and the ones who set standards IEE, well they don't get listened to, whats a KB, 1024Bytes? Nope, 1000B = 1KB acccording to the standard, 1024Bytes = 1KibiByte, Yeah, those 'ibi' things have been around since 1999, still don't know which 'Standard' To go by in this course.. i've asked both IPT and SDD, neither have a definite answer and both were supprisd to find out it even existed.. so in the Exam, if you get asked to convert Bytes to KILObytes, they what do you use? 1000, or 1024?
steeve:
Well i'm doing sdd in yr 12 atm and its basically a go home and study subject.
As all subjects are, Study the work, any quaestions? Ask a teacher... simple.. why must people be scared of them.. their a resource, USE THEM!
However ive seen people in my class go to various source code sites and dl their work while others have done orignal work.
Ever thought of mentioning that? But then again, Theres nothing wrong with using Freely available code if it's available. Just acknologe it, Done. As long as you can put up the theory and documentation up it;s allright, Why? Because Programming is a measily 10%, why bother?
Funny enough tho my teacher dosent know caus he/she dosent look at the source code, rather he/she just looks at all the functions and pretty colors.
I Wonder if you were to include this in your sourcecode it would be noticed
comment: I WANT TO KILL YOU.. Your likely to get a knock from the police or at least the principal i doubt it would go unnoticed.
I have not written down a single word in SDD caus we dont do any notes.
And i thought you said it was "a go home and study subject" ???????
Your stuffed mate, You NEED notes, you can't just sit back and watch things go by it don't WORK like that!
Whats even more weird is in previous years students have acctually got band 6 results
Now i wonder what they did? Studied, knew the work, knew the sylibus, gave answers specific to the question(many don't, read the Markers notes)
Many students in SDD don't even know the Glossery of terms the BoS(official) give out. Let me guess, Someones going to complain their out of date terms? Well i've got news for you, History of computing is something you NEED to know, IF i was to say that i know large banks that still use Windows 3.11 would you be supprised? i know i'm not, Because that does the job, I doubt you'd know the programming language used either...
Anyway, People who are watching this, Rethink for a second before posting again, Is it really worth your time to make some studpid self-centered post about how lame you are thinking that you need to be spoon-fed al the course information.. Sorry of course some of you need to be, you dont know any other way of learning, I'll be supprised about that person who said i woudlnt survive work or uni, i'd be suprised if you got anywhere in life, Lazying back expecting things to happen and com to you,it dones't work that way mate, GET A FSKING LIFE!!! Don't Leech!
And since Someone asked.. Heres some resources.

In partiulr these set of links they have:
http://www.schools.ash.org.au/cbhs/sdd_sites.htm
http://google.com/ - Supprise supprise, type in a term and it gives your page results OMG! How revolutionary! Go search for infformation idiots.. Where do you think those 2 pages came from originally? No i didn't randomly type in letters, i went to google and done a few searches, came back with heeps of definitions that i was looking for in them,
Now, G'Luck to those who plan on going well in this subject, if you plan to go well, you'll need to Luck, If your a leecher who likes to sit back and watch things come to them and make everything harder than it is for yourself, well piss off, you shoudlnt' be in teh subject, it's a relitivly easy course, it's not a hard one either, theres not alot to learn when you look at it, if your really interested and not after the net access you might understand some of the things said..
Also, Those who sat back during the prelim course, got news for you, it may not be directly in teh HSC Exams, but many of these things you have trouble with in the HSC was covered slightly in prelim, just to give you a general brisk idea of it..
Man some people piss me off..
Those of you have done the HSC SDD Exam(as in passed....) Then What was your study? Sit back and do nothing? Get a good mark? Focus on the subject? Or ignore it eisted and continued smoking Pot/dope/weed and getting drunk every friday night?
Question is now.. Does this essay fit into the post length?
