I place an emergency rescaling rule in my syllabus [ syllabus.htm ] (under Grading) for when nobody in the class gets an A.
Before rescaling the best grade was a B. After rescaling, this distribution emerged:
| A | A- | B+ | B | B- | C+ | C | C- |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 3 | 2 | 4 | 4 | 2 | 0 | 0 |

then onward to Logic Programming and Prolog(TBA).
Don't forget that I need to know about your paper
and presentation this week.
Fri May 14 12:32:56 PDT 2004 Errors found in text book!
See
[ 15.html ]
where all is revealed.
Tue May 11 18:14:02 PDT 2004 Grades and notes published.
Notes
[ 13.html ]
have answer to the excellent questions.
As I expected, the JAva lab proved a little exciting: an Applet would work good on one machine and not even start on another. As I said: write once, debug every where.
The next language is LISP. Don't forget to study text and
my handout
[ 320wlisp.html ]
(older HTML version) in preparation for
[ 14.html ]
the next class.
Thu May 6 15:19:42 PDT 2004 Grades and Notes published.
I've also updated the resources page to include links to
uptodate Java documentation.
Wed May 5 12:11:37 PDT 2004 News of Java 1.5.0
I've found the 1.5.0 Beta Documentation
[ http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/ ]
if you are interested in this. Interesting changes
in the API with templated Vectors!
I have updated
[ java.html ]
my sample documentation on Java.
Tue May 4 16:12:04 PDT 2004 Today: best and worst
The answers to the questions
[ 11.html ]
have been posted. THe grades are posted as well.
The Good news: the servers seem to becoming reliable again.
The bad news: I can't waste any more lab time.
Try to do as much of
[ lab11.html ]
as you have time for before the next class. It is
mostly a look and think exercise but has some code
for you to download and compile at the end.
Mon May 3 14:08:00 PDT 2004 Java and OO next
I've just translated the Java handout into HTML and published it
[ Java.htm ]
but in the process the graphics were lost (a bug in WP10).
You should make notes and questions on this handout and the reading in the text book ready for class and laboratory on Tuesday.
Thu Apr 29 14:28:46 PDT 2004 Grades and notes online
There may be some errors, please check.
Don't forget to study the start of chapter 6 AND the Java handout
before next Tuesdayr.

Mon Apr 19 10:31:19 PDT 2004 Outlines of final and next session
Here
[ final.html ]
is my current thinking on the form and content of the final.
Here [ 07.html ] is my current outline for the next class and [ lab07.html ] the laboratory.
The new questions have also been indexed so that you can search for them.
A Hint about the Final Exam
Practice using the formal syntax and semantics for languages
to work out the meaning of programs!
I am developing a new language called Minski
based on a machine published by Marvin Minski back in the
1960's. I will hand out the formal description of the language
and some sample programs one or two weeks before the exam.
I will give you another copy in th final for reference purposes.
In the final I will give you some programs and ask you to
predict what they do by using the syntax and semantics.
By the way: the syntax is unlike any other language I've seen. It is
designed so that you have to use the rules rather than guess
what it does.
Wed Apr 14 08:28:04 PDT 2004 Small change in strategy
I will publishing my notes on each class session
the day before, see
[ 06.html ]
for example..... but keeping the exercises and
lab work a secret until the start of the class.
I feel you need to see a translation of the Pseudo-Pascal in chapter 4 into C++ before the class starts.
The syntax of pascal is in
[ pascal.syntax.html ]
by the way.
Tue Apr 13 17:54:05 PDT 2004 Done!
I've posted the latest grades.
I've also updated
[ while.html ]
to include your most excellent suggestions.... thank you.
I have typed in my answers to your questions into
[ 05.html ]
and linked them into the [Search] engine for the CS620 site.
Thu Apr 8 06:51:43 PDT 2004 Notes/04 updated
I've added detailed notes on the definitions of product, sum,
and function domains based on other books
[ 04.html ]
that I've used in the past.
Tue Apr 6 17:20:12 PDT 2004 Grade sand notes 04 published
I've written up our discussion today in
[ 03.html ]
and posted the grades in the usual place -- and
fixed a bug in the grade selector program.... please test
it.
I've done some work on the next discussion section [ 04.html ] and am working on the lab.
Fri Apr 2 16:27:55 PST 2004 Outlines for 03 and 04 online
I'm still working on
[ 03.html ]
and
[ 04.html ]
but they are getting better.
Thu Apr 1 18:13:13 PST 2004 First Grades posted!
Do you have your 3 letter Id handy? Then follow the
[Grading] link at the top of this page.

Answers to questions and lab exercises have been posted

have been revised.
I've got an outline of the next class started [ 03.html ] as well.
By the way, with every batch of new material I update the
data base (an HTML file) that the search engine uses so you can
search for all answers to questions contain syntax say and
get a collection of places to look for clues.
