For anything programming-related, a laptop is much better than an iPad, and basically any non-Chromebook laptop will be good (Apple vs Windows vs Linux is your choice). Anything with 8 GB RAM should be fine.

I can't comment on tote bags as I've always used a backpack, but the Fjallraven backpacks are very good! (I'm not sure if they make tote bags).

thanks so muchh!!
Decent back pack every time. If you had to carry a big book, laptop and ipad and your lunch and a wrapped up coat, no problems, you can do it all.

Buy a backpack cover and store it in one of the pockets so if you have to walk home or wait for the bus you can pop it over your bag and the stuff inside won't get drenched.
