Introduction • Dr. Robb T. Koether • Office: Bagby 114 • Office phone: 223-6207 • Home phone: 392-8604 (before 11:00 p.m.) • Office hours: 2:30 - 3:20 MTWR; other hours by appointment. • E-mail: rkoether@hsc.edu • WWW: http://people.hsc.edu/faculty-staff/robbk
Meeting Times • The class will meet in Bagby 120 at • 10:30 - 11:20 MWF • 1:30 - 2:20 R.
Textbook • The text for the course is ADTs, Data Structures, and Problem Solving with C++, 2nd ed., by Larry Nyhoff. • Keep handy C++ Program Design, 3rd ed., by Jim Cohoon and Jack Davidson.
Grading • There will be 14 labs, 5 or 6 computer projects, 2 tests, and a final exam. In the final average, these will be weighted as follows.
Laboratories • There will be 14 or 15 laboratories. • They will be conducted in class roughly every third or fourth class meeting (not on a special “lab” day). • Each lab contains an “Application” section which instructs you to write a program for homework. • The applications are due by midnight of the third class day after the lab.
Computer Projects • There will be 5 computer projects. • When you turn in a project, it will be tested using various sets of test data. • Then I will read your program carefully to see exactly how you solved the problem.
Computer Projects • I will assign a grade to your project based on the following areas. • Design - Did you choose an appropriate method to solve the problem? • Implementation - Are your program statements correct? • Execution - Did your program produce the correct output for all inputs? • Style - Did you follow the guidelines of programming style?
Computer Projects • These four areas will be weighted as follows.
Tests and the Final Exam • The test schedule is
