General Discussion

Will TeamTreehouse ever have content about Algorithms and c++?

I wanted to ask this question not only because I need to learn but there are a lot of people out there looking for a perfect source to learn c++, algorithms and problem solving techniques so I thought what could be a better place to learn than TeamTreehouse.

To be honest, I am not sure. TeamTreehouse seems to focus more on practical web application and mobile development skills, over general programming and algorithm techniques.

While I would love to see them delve into topics such as Data Structures (not the Java one they have up currently), algorithm techniques, design patterns, software engineering and programming interviews. For a website generally geared towards beginners, it is understandable why they wouldn't cover such topics especially since they are very math heavy and are very concept heavy.

As a computer science major and software engineer myself, I would love to see topics like this taught outside of a college lecture in the format that Team Treehouse employs. But I am sure that those would probably end up being the most difficult courses here on Treehouse.

freecodecamp.com has a decent section on algorithms in javascript.
