Class News

  • Mod4 Assignment (Music Box) posted on the module page, due Thu 12/8
  • This is the experimental pilot section (02) in Python. The other sections are teaching the established C++ curriculum. If you take this section, you must also take the matching CS II (2380) section in the Spring, where we will transition to C++.
  • Download and install Python 3 on your personal machine (Windows, Mac or Linux)

Other News

  • Computer Science Program Notes, including information on degrees, registration, internships, etc.
  • ACM meetings every Tuesday, 12:15pm in ENGR 1.272. Student groups are a great way to meet other CS and CMPE students and learn life & career related stuff. People with a strong support network tend to win.
  • ENGR 2.212 is the best lab to work in on campus! We control it, and it's specifically set aside for CSCI/CMPE students.
  • Here is a very simple, excellent post about Study Groups (University of Minnesota Duluth).
  • Not shocking: Engineers make more money
  • Google scholarships. Very good page to keep track of, both for yourself and for high school students you know with interest in CS.
