CS Student at CIIT Abbottabad.
Languages and Tools: C++ and Oracle.
Favourite language: both of the above.

Can I ask for some guidelines here as well? Well, If I can then please someone guide me How should I study Data Structures?(Any ebook or a good website you would recommend) I am good at OOP (scored A- in previous semester) but unfortunately, our teacher(That dude is a graduate from LUMS! what do they teach there?)this semester hardly attends any class . It is impossible to be good in data structure if one doesn't have a good command over managing the memory properly using pointers (that is the only thing I know about data structures). Any help would be appreciated because I cannot remain dependent on my teacher to learn anything.

Budy do programming by passion or interest not to think about earning now.If you think about earning then choose another field like doctor or some else.

Well you can make big money by programming but it's usually the most luckiest people who do so. Not to mention from what I have heard, if you wish to make above the average pay-rate for a Programmer (USA), you probably have to be either doing security or making games (1 in a 1000 luck). But Programming as a career is usually pursued by people who are interested or have a passion, like Umair stated above.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
