We prefer if you use Github. But if you plan to use bitbucket instead, that is ok. We don't have bitbucket accounts set up for the class though, so you might want to invite us through email.
will be out of town this week (Tuesday-Saturday). However, lectures will proceed as usual.
Arthur Karapateas (who was the TA for the Summer term) will be handling the lectures this week. We will discuss OOP concepts and write a few classes in Python.
I will be available through email, but the turnaround time will be longer than usual. I will try my best to reply with 24 hours.
The Midterm will be on October 18, in class.
You only need to bring writing implements. The test is closed notes. No cheat sheets/electronic devices.
A study guide with sample questions will be posted about a week before the test.You should now be able to see an entry for Quizzes in your gradebook. We will have at least 5 quizzes over the semester, and each of those is worth 20 points. So, right now, after yesterday's quiz, you are seeing the grade on 20, even if the gradebook says 100. As we have more quizzes, I'll just update this entry instead of having a separate entry for each quiz. Please don't panic when you see the x/100 grade.
It is likely that we will have more than 5 quizzes (I'm planning 6 or 7). If we do, your grade will be the total of the 5 highest quiz grades. This allows folks to miss a couple of quizzes and still get the full 100. So, even if you missed yesterday's quiz, you're probably fine.
I need to be at an Undergraduate Curriculum Committee meeting today at 12:30 PM, so today's office hours are from 10:30 AM - 12:30 PM.
Welcome to the course.
We will be using the Canvas page only for grades and announcements.
