Donald Yessick
Assistant Professor Ph.D. Computer Science University of Alabama, 2004 SEC 3412 1-205-348-2666 [email protected] |
Dr. Yessick teaches CS I for Majors, Algorithms, and Programming Languages.
Dr. Yessick joined the UA Department of Computer Science in 2022 as an Assistant Professor. Yessick says his favorite language is Swift. Before using Swift, Java was his favorite language. And before Java, his favorite language was Ada. While he thinks C/C++, Python, and JavaScript are extremely useful he believes languages like Ada and Swift, may be argued safer by design. And Languages like Lisp and Haskell are still worthy of study, even if they are not favorites.
