I wasn't aware my mediocrity was on display. 😅

Honestly, I liked the professor. When he had time to teach something he was clearly interested in, he did a great job of connecting. He didn't get to teach us OOP though because there was a staffing emergency. The person we did get normally taught Hardware, so he was basically just reading aloud the textbook. Poor guy.

And you're right, the professor did let us know that there was going to be a change of requirements partway through. But it wouldn't be a good lesson if he told us what was going to change, although he did give some examples from previous times he'd taught the course.

A lot of people got burned when the change came. For my part I thought I did pretty okay, the refactor didn't go perfectly but it was better than if I hadn't been prepared. But I've also written a bunch of really gross objects that served no purpose just because they might change later. As anything is, it's all about finding that happy medium
