• If you need it, tutoring here at UIC is available from the ACM
• See the Important Notes on the g++ compiler and your default path.
• For programming notes, references, tutorials, look here.
• Programming process examples (in C/C++):
       - Coins exchange program (swap the places of the X's and the O's). First approach with a confusion of nested ifs, second approach using switch statements for more generic code, third version using functions.
       - Marble guessing game (play against the computer to guess even or odd): marble1.c and marble2.c
• To get an idea of what you might expect, take a look at the following old assignments. Many of them have accompanying solutions as well. These programs give you examples of most of what you need to write programs in this course, as well as showing what I expect in terms of documentation.
  • Fall 05 (Java and C/C++)
  • Fall 04 (Java and C/C++)
  • Spring 04 (Java and C/C++)
  • Fall 03 (Java and C/C++)
  • Spring 03 (Course was all in C/C++)
