| Week | Information Assignments due in one week unless otherwise stated. Please note that I am not going to stay with the text - it moves to slow at the beginning and I want to cover more of the fundamentals quickly to give you more flexibility when you write your programs. However, the text is important because it will fill in some information that I may not emphasize. I want you to read the text chapter by chapter and I also want you to use it as a reference. If you are having problems with a concept, look it up in the text. |

NOTE: The text book is mainly for reference. The material and the order of the
material that I will cover is more closely covered in the PowerPoint presentations
and the sample programs that are covered in class. This is especially true at the
beginning of the course. The book is dealing with a lot of things that are good
to know and you should take note of them because they will help as you write your
programs. So... Read chapter #3 and chapter #4 in the text.
