				Coding - not that much, because I already knew a lot before joining college. But learnt a lot of Computer Science (Digital design, microprocessors, theory of computation, compiler design, Linux kernel etc)

				 620hun80998yWe learned Microsoft Office, and some very very very basic HTML, like tables and stuff. At that point I knew more than my teacher, I'm sure I posted a rant about this some time ago. 620hun80998yWe learned Microsoft Office, and some very very very basic HTML, like tables and stuff.

				If by school you mean high school, then I'd say Core java. First program being swapping two numbers .(individually written)(other than the usual hello world)

				spacem18278yMy grade four teacher had a commodore vic 20 and each week he let one child borrow it for the week. It came with a book that explained how to write programs https://manualslib.com/manual/...
 
 After that not much until year 11&12 where we wrote programs in pascal and Visual Basic and did sql and relation database design

				High school, nothing. College, everything, because I didn't know anything about it yet ;). Though internships and summer jobs were the most valuable.

				 mhudson12858yLots about the science of computing. Can't -teach- coding though, that must be learned by doing. mhudson12858yLots about the science of computing. Can't -teach- coding though, that must be learned by doing.

				 toor1278yNothing in high school. Taught myself gw-basic when I was in 3 or 4th grade. Got bored of that, learned Turbo Pascal when I was 13 or 14, wrote a bunch of BBS utilities and doors. At 15 or 16, I started using UNIX. Learned Java, SQL, and Visual Basic in college. Taught myself Perl, Python, and C# at my first job. toor1278yNothing in high school.

				@codepoet I could guess we're from the same country based on this, even tho it probably applies to most places. We're even from the same city lol

				I learned a lot about data structures and objects. The importance of clean code and what it means to program effectively instead of hacking away a solution.

				 devios156308yIn high school, not much because I was already self-taught C++ at the time and so was already way ahead of the material (grade 11 and 13). devios156308yIn high school, not much because I was already self-taught C++ at the time and so was already way ahead of the material (grade 11 and 13).
 
 In university though, tons! But that's 'cause I majored in Computer Science. 🙂

				Not a single thing, but we've got a robotics class coming, and I'm only one of three people in the school who can code
