• PS3 is due on Monday, 30 January 2006, at 11:59p. It's an individual assignment.
• The first exam will be held in class on Wednesday, 1 February 2006. Coverage is through the end of recursion (i.e, about the first half of class on Monday, 30 January 2006), including the first three assignments, the first 11.5 classes, and all of the assigned reading. Here is a previous exam that was given in CS127 in Fall 2004. It's in Word format, so apologies to those (like me!) without Word access (though abiword on the mathcs machines should do reasonably). You can also look at another exam given in Fall 2005, though note that it was an in-lab exam (typing rather than writing). Doing the problems in the book (both programming problems and exercises) is another great way to prepare.


• PS2 is due on Monday, 23 January 2006, at 11:59p. Your design document is due on Friday, 20 January 2006, at 7:00p.
