MCS-178: Introduction to Computer Science II (Spring 2018)

Note: This web site will be modified as the semester progresses. You are responsible for all the updates made here, so please check this page often.

- January 10th, 2018: the course page is up and running.

- January 11th, 2018: Special annoucement for the students of MCS-178 : professor Yu will be presenting in a conference in Osaka, Japan from 2/27 to 3/4. So, you will be spending 2/27, 2/28, 3/1, and 3/2 working on project 2 (please see the schedule page). This is unlike previous semesters. As a result, all of the lectures prior to project 2 will be pushed ahead in order for you to spend those four days working on project 2. And, you might not have a complete picture about Java by that point (although I will try my best to give you enough information for you to finish project 2, the rest of the lectures on Java will be given once I get back). Thus, it is very important for you to work on project 1 and project 2 deligently. Try to finish project 1 as fast as possible. If you are done with project 1, work on project 2. Finally, you should go to the tutors frequently, if only to use that time and environment to work. If you are stuck, get the tutors to help you.

- March 6th, 2018: Due to the snow day today, some labs were canceled. As a result, the course schedule had been changed slightly and the due date for project 3 had been pushed back slightly. Please check the course schedule for detail.
