    Serious question - is “IT” another term for engineering in some places? Where I’m from IT is like sysadmin stuff and they would never learn assembly.

      I’m in Lithuania and “IT” is often used as general term. But yeah I’m on a software engineering course, not a sysadmin one. Program systems in the faculty of math and informatics to be specific

      I would wager to bet they are in an IT degree path, something with sysadmin or networking, and taking an intro to programming class, or they are a very humble CompSci major.
