Hi
My name is Jay Kim and I will be a graduate student of MSFE in NYU-Poly.
I am reading couple of books which might be helpful before my graduate studying,
and Starting Your Career as Wall Street Quant (Brett Jiu) is one of those.
I'm confused right now because what the book and one of my close professor is telling me different things.
The professor told me that Matlab will be the greatest and mandatory tool if you are willing to be a quant,
while the book says that C++ is the most primary computational tool that I have to be familiar with.
No doubt that it would be the best if I am good at both of those,
but which one should I learn first?
I currently have absolutely no idea about programming.
I use Excel with great joy, that's pretty much all...
