Course grades are based on homeworks and programs (1/2),
two in-class tests (1/8 each), and a final exam (1/4) .
Course Overview
CS 117 is a data structures and programming course, based on C++.
During the course, I expect we will:
- Learn more C++,
- Understand and implement the major Abstract Data Types useful in Computer Science,
- Use the ADTs to solve interesting problems.
The required book for the course is
Data Abstraction and Problem Solving with C++, 2nd Edition,
by Carrano, Helman and Veroff.
You can use any system you like to develop and run your programs.
Most of you will probably continue to use
the MetroWerks CodeWarrior C++ compiler running under
MacOS that you used last quarter.
Assignments
Please make sure you read and understand my homework presentation and collaboration
guidelines.
