Program Descriptions (Not for this semester)

See the schedule for due dates. Make sure you see the Important Notes below.

1. The Densa Quiz, a solution. (For students who are interested in working ahead, see also a solution using arrays.)
2. Mastermind, the directory of a solution, the solution as a zip file.
3. TextTwist, the directory of a solution, the solution as a zip file.
4. Quits (in Java)
5. Quits (in C)

Be aware that some of the solutions above have the indentation messed up a little bit. This is due to the software I use on the PC to write the programs and to generate web pages. I'm unwilling at this point to do extra editing just for this. Be assured that the originals are all nicely formatted.

• 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. Some assignments are in Java, some in C++, depending on the course and the year in which it was offered.
