How to Become a Computer Scientist

By -
Computer scientists are the experts who push the boundaries of
computer technology to find out how it can be improved and to help us
better understand and make use of its potential. They may specialize
in any of a wide range of subjects, including programming languages,
hardware design, artificial intelligence, computer-human interaction
and many others.

Instructions

1

Take courses in high school such as computers, mathematics,
science and English if you're interested in a career in computer
science.
2

Take part in a placement or internship if you have the chance.
You'll get to work alongside a computer scientist and see what their
work environment is like. You will also get to note it as experience
on your resume.
3

Obtain a bachelor's degree in computer science. Bachelor's
degree programs tend to take four years to complete. Depending on the
position you apply for, a degree in a related subject, such as
computer engineering, electrical engineering or mathematics may also
be accepted.
4

Get a master's degree, if you want to. Although a bachelor's
degree can get you into entry-level positions, many other people will
likely have a master's degree, because it keeps the field competitive.
It's a good idea to get one.
5

Get a PhD if you want to become a professor. To become a
professor you will need to complete a PhD program. Most PhD programs
can be completed in about four years. A PhD is also necessary to get
into senior-level research positions in private industry.

What's the difference between "include" and "require" in Ruby?

By -
The include and require methods do very different things. The require method does what include does in most other programming languages: run another file. It also tracks what you've required in the past and won't require the same file twice. To run another file without this added functionality, you can use the load method. The include method takes all the methods from another module and includes them into the current module. This is a language-level thing as opposed to a file-level thing as with require. The include method is the primary way to "extend" classes with other modules (usually referred to as mix-ins). For example, if your class defines the method "each", you can include the mixin module Enumerable and it can act as a collection. This can be confusing as the include verb is used very differently in other languages.
