• April 16: You may find this sample final from a previous semester useful. Our final will look a lot like the exams we have had so far.
• March 30: One student recommended this site for bits, logic, etc. Thanks Richard!
• March 28: Project C posted (7:20pm).
• March 27: I've been complaining about poor coding style in class a fair bit. I found a pretty good example of bad coding style on the web. A LOT of engineering programs end up looking like this. I've fixed it up a bit so g++ will compile it. Don't let this happen to you :-).
• March 26: Quiz 2 answers posted. Only for one version, but the other 2 versions were very similar.
• Feb 16: A page on bits, logic and the like has been posted.
