Lecture 1 | Programming Abstractions (Stanford)

The first lecture by Julie Zelenski for the Programming Abstractions Course (CS106B) in the Stanford Computer Science Department.

Julie Zelenski gives an introduction to the course, recursion, algorithms, dynamic data structures and data abstraction; she also introduced the significance of programming and gives her opinion of what makes 106B "great;" C++ is introduced, too.

Really cool, but english is not my first language and I find a bit hard to follow her at certain points.

Is the difference between a list and a heap how much grouped items' content are looked at?

Geek - assembler

Nerd - learner

Genius - abstractive agent

Engineer - uses abstraction of learned material to assemble designs

I can't take her seriously.... I bust out laughing before the first minute of the video is up.
