A lot of poetry (including French) is actually quite good. Perhaps if you spent some time listening in class instead of playing four-in-a-row you might learn appreciation for poetry. Even if you end up not liking poetry, learning about it and about why other people like it will make you better. and maybe show some of my classmates that programming is more cool than what we learned about integers and document.writeln() Your teacher had to start somewhere. I'm doubtful that all your classmates are as brilliant as you are. Give the teacher a break. He/she has to deal with 10's or 100's of whining "I'd rather be playing four-in-a-row" students every day. He/she is probably doing the best they can with the resources and time they have. Many people in a HS CompSci course probably aren't ready for anything more advanced than "document.writeln()". Put yourself in your teachers' shoes now and then. They really do want you to learn -- they wouldn't spend their days working with teenagers for measely salaries if they didn't. There's more to life than computers. Take some time to learn about and enjoy some of these things. Maybe even some French poetry That said, writing an AI to learn your game is probably a good project. But give your teachers a break -- they really do want to teach you.
