re: Hardest class or topic you had in high school?

Computer class was hard for those of us who grew up in an era where technology meant putting a quarter in an arcade machine or making a collect call. It was like all of a sudden the educational system realized that these bizarre toys for nerds would soon rule the future and they threw us all into the deep end.

I took programming in highschool in '87. Had to take Fortran and turbo pascal. One example of homework was the 500 steps to screw in a lightbulb. For example, step one: wakeup. Step two: sit up in bed. Etc. Had to detail everything.
