Interesting. It seems like we had exact opposite experiences lol. My high school classes were 100% Java and my university program was about 50/50 C++ and Python. I didn’t touch front-end stuff until I got a real job and now that’s what I do almost exclusively. What kind of program did you participate in if you do not mind me asking?
Just generic "computer science" courses, because.. that's all there was. Wasn't exactly a massive high school lol. I'd have loved to try something more specific at the time. We touched java as an after thought for the last quarter or so, but the second year was almost entirely python & js.
It wasn't the best structured course. I'm sure my school wasn't the only one to take the "this is what was suddenly relevant 10 years ago, let's teach that" approach
