My grandson is staying 2 days with us before going back to college in Washington State. He's a CS major and he is interested in gaming. He want to get an intern job with a gaming company this summer. I told him the first thing is to see what language they use for their games, it's C++.
His school is Java based. I advice him to get deeper into C++. He had one semester of C++ that he used Gaddis. I described before already, they cover to chapter 11 and totally skipped pointers. I definitely don't think it's enough. I advice him to learn more C++ before summer as I think it's important to know the language before interviewing for the job.
But obviously, who am I to advice him on CS. So I want some input on what he should look into learning if his intention is to get a intern job in gaming place.
Thanks
