(10/30) Midterm Class Performance As noted in class, an indicator of midterm class performance is available through the protected area of the course web-page (section C1). See also the relevant item in this section dated 10/19. Exam statistics are available through a link in section C4 of the protected area. Note that midterm performance does not reflect your performance in the homeworks/programming assignments. Those of you who are to complete these homework requirements will get a point benefit. If however you do not complete these requirements you will be at a deficit of 120 points. Plan carefully given that Exam 3/PA 3 is almost 17 days away.

(10/19) Exam2 statistics and midterm performance report are available through the protected area of the course web-page.
(10/19) PS 5 has been made available.
(10/6) PA 2 possible caching problems with PDF version In a version of PA2 dated [Aug 31] the num ber of points (120) for Option 2 was indicated incorrectly as 105 or 100 in two different locations (header of sections 2.1, 2.2). This has been corrected in the [Oct 5] version of the document. However if you are still getting the [Aug 31] document when you click for the pdf, Adobe Acrobat might be misbehaving by reading a cached older version of the document. Separate links to newly named copies of the [Oct 5] documents are provided to resolve this caching problem. Other than the point correction the [Aug31] and [Oct5] documents are the SAME.
(10/6) Exam 2 is on this coming Monday Oct 12. Review Handout 1 for details. The material that will be covered includes Chapters 1,2,3,4,6,10 but NOT Chapter 7.

(9/4) Textbook Inquiries Please click on this link. The major change is Chapter 4 whose contents have been enhanced with material that is covered in class later on. Chapter numbers seem to remain the same, page number DID CHANGE. Content-wise I can not comment.

Textbook Availability(1/9) If there are no available stacked copies of the textbook in the bookstore, ask one of the employees there to bring extra copies from the storage area. I have been told that the bookstore did not run out of copies. Also go to the CS 667 area of the bookstore; they are using the same textbook as well.
First day of classes is Mon Aug 31.
