 Week 11 Notes for CS 1500 -- Spring 2000
(this is draft material)

* Take roll

* Passing back Quiz #2 -- check my arithmetic on your test.

=========================
MONDAY
=========================

* Grades are posted in web space -- caught up to the present, I
  think.  Let me know if you see any errors or omissions.

* How many people made errors on Solo #4.  What should be
  tested?  What are the moral and ethical considerations
  concerning professionals who produce code with bugs in it?

* Solo #5 assignment is posted in web space.  I
  may be away on Wednesday, May 3.  Class should
  meet that day in the Lab and work on solo #5.
  (Since it is a solo program, you should not
  work as partners -- the usual rules for solo
  work apply -- you may discuss the program, but
  not share actual C++ code.)
  
* We are reading about character processing in
  chapter eight.  We will discuss this topic in
  class on Monday and Friday.

* Function "GetAnswer" in exe0804.cpp is a nice
  example of how to use character processing to
  do data input while preventing some types of
  input errors.

=========================
WEDNESDAY
=========================

* Solo work in lab

=========================
FRIDAY
=========================

* Take a look at the schedule for the week.

* Somewhere in doing the exercises below, touch on
  the topic of how characters are buffered on
  input and output.

* Do exercises on pages 399-400 to motivate
  learning some concepts: choose from 1-8.

* Do exercises on pages 406-407 to motivate
  learning some concepts: choose from 1-8, and
  prog #1 in section 8.2.

* Do exercises on pages 416-417 to motivate
  learning some concepts: choose from 1-3, 5-8.

* If time allows it would be interesting to look
  at the problem of converting ascii input to an
  integer using Horner's method.
