I think the internet is responsible for making almost all school assignments (but especially programming assignments) much harder and more obscure.
I do think it was a tough assignment given that you only learned arrays last week. (but I'm not sure what you had before that). |
Basically all I was taught about C is how to use printf and scanf and to include the libraries, then I was given a general overview of what an array is and then I was told to build a program that built a 4x4 grid, asked me for the values of 4 cells and then filled the rest of the cells so that no number repeats in either a column or a row (he didnt ask for the 2x2 boxes just rows and columns.)
Sadly half of my programming teachers are like that, and no ammount of complaining to anyone in the school has solved anything.
I remember a couple of semesters ago when I took a class called Program Language II and the teacher showed up on the first day and wrote on the board that he wanted us to make a "Who wants to be a millionaire" like game for the week after that, and then just left, we werent even told that we had to write it in Visual Basic wich was the language used in that class.
