• 3/4 HW 2 deadline extension HW 2 was originally announced in the syllabus with a Mar 24 deadline. When it was posted the deadline moved to Mar 31 due to the snow closures. It is hereby extended one more week that is April 7, 2014. (Note that HW3 dates will NOT change.)

• 2/17 HW2 posted Note the amended due date of HW2 which is one week later than the previously announced date.
• 2/14 Sample code In case you have compilation issues with the experimental code, beware of two issues with the experimental code that should be resolved now (section B4 new): the prototype for bubble has changed so that second and third parameters are both size_t and not int. If there is a problem with time structures eg _tstruct, make sure that you can locate properly and include the corresponding headers (this is in sys/time.h). Thus it is imperative that all your files are new copies and do not mix up an old bubble.c with a new sortg.c. (Same applies for sortg.cc etc.)
• 2/4 HW1 addendum In HW1, Step 2, part 2.2 Grader Email points to the course Web-page for the email of the grader. This information is now available. BTW there was a typo in hw1 re a ggnumber that has been fixed (into ggn). This was in section 4.1.I in the comment for member variables N and n in the pseudocode for class/struct ggint.
