The students will only require a plain text editor such as Notepad, TextEdit or any similar program to complete the homeworks of this course.

Prerequisite

No prerequisite, computer literacy assumed.

Homeworks, Projects and Tests

Homeworks will be given periodically through the semester. They will be posted on the course website at least 7 days before the corresponding submission deadlines. All homeworks should be completed and submitted individually. Students are always encouraged to start working on the assignments as early as possible to avoid late submissions.

In addition to homeworks, each student will participate in a term project that demonstrates his/her mastery over the concepts introduced in class. Projects can be done individually, or in a group of 2 or 3 students. At the end of the semester, students will be required to demonstrate their projects.

Quizzes will be used to determine class participation and will not be announced beforehand. They will involve a few questions from the day's class material and will be held at the end of class.

Final exam date: December 11, 2019 5:30PM – 7:30PM
