Assignment 2 Released (Snakes)

Assignment 2 has been released on Frontdesk. It is due Thursday, 12 February.

ExpressionTrees Theory Submission

Ideally you should submit your answers to the expression tree theory questions in the theory.txt (plain text) file to Frontdesk. Since it seems we have confused some students, we will also accept solutions in pdf, which you should include with your submission to Frontdesk in the src directory. On future assignments we will only accept hardcopies of typeset solutions (in recitation).

Quiz 1 in recitation 1/28

As a final reminder, there will be a quiz in recitation today, January 28th. Any material covered so far in the course is fair game.

Link to Frontdesk when asking TAs about your code

When you have a specific question about your assignment and you want your TA to be able to see the code you've written so far, please link to the appropriate submission on Frontdesk (rather than attaching/including portions of your source). The link will look something like this: https://fd.cs.cmu.edu/frontdesk/codeview/?sub=#####.

Lecture 04 written notes posted

By popular request I have posted the written notes from today's lecture. I will not post the written notes in the future. I am only posting today's notes because of the large number of written notes and fast pace of the lecture.

Homework 1 has been released

Homework 1, Expression Trees, has been released. Click on the Assignments link on the 211 portal to download the documentation and starter code. The assignment is due on Thursday, January 29th, at 11:59:59 PM. As with all assignments, make sure you read the documentation and starter code thoroughly before beginning to code.
