Course – Educational Objectives Reading Material

This course aims to teach you how to read and write software in the C • Book:
programming language. You will become familiar with the procedures − Jeri R. Hanly and Elliot B. Koffman, Problem Solving and Program Design in C,
necessary to structure and translate problems into steps for coding in a Pearson Education, Seventh Edition.
high level computing language. You will learn how to write programs so • Other books:
that others can use them. By the end of this course you should be able − Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie, C Programming Language, Prentice Hall.
to : − Harvey M. Deitel, Paul J. Deitel, C How to Program, Prentice Hall, Fifth Edition.
− Read a standard C program and understand how it works
− Break down a problem into logical steps (an algorithm)
− Convert algorithms into clear, well documented C code
− Write sections of a C program as part of a team

(otherwise, your homework grade will be considered as zero) + StackOverflow
• Programming assignments will be graded by TAs on the basis of • You may seek help in identifying syntax and run-time
− Compilation errors and engage in general discussions regarding the
solutions, but giving and receiving sections of code will
− Run A VM will be provided to create a similar be considered cheating
− Correctness of the results environment that would be used during grading!
− Coding style and documentation • All parties (giving or receiving) involved in cheating will
− No partial credits if your code does not compile or run be punished
− Will get the grade of -100% for that homework
• Use Linux environments for editing and compiling (gcc) your programs − And more…
