I totally agree with you. When our `Programming Languages` teacher
was talking about language comparisons, she stated that Visual C++ was
a lot better than Visual Basic and that only few use Visual C++. Only
few are practically oriented.
(ii)It is a sad state that today ( atleast in india )that lecturers / others
take up teaching only because thay didn't get a high paying job
(iii) i have seen professors / lecturers are very business minded and do lots
a part time business.
Simply there is not *free* interaction between the students and the
teachers. If it was so, there won't be any such problems.
