CSC151.02 2016S, Class 35: Iteration

Overview

Preliminaries

Happy Birthday anonymous student!
- Thank you for sharing the food stuffs that are not nearly as good as those your family would make.
I have not yet figured out what's going on with turtles.
Good luck to our improvisational students as the travel off to an another "three vowels plus a potentially vowel-like letter" state.
We have lots of introductory stuff to do. I'll still try to keep it brief.
Some of you have been asking about CSC 161 and CSC 207. We are committed to ensuring that every prospective major can take CSC 161 and CSC 207 in the semester in which they want to take those courses. We will do our best to ensure that every student who wants to take CSC 161 and CSC 207 can do so at some point.
Exam stuff
- I encourage you to try a variant of "You must try, and then you must ask" https://blogs.akamai.com/2013/10/you-must-try-and-then-you-must-ask.html. (Ten minutes of the try section suffices.)
- Yes, I'll deal with the "I have no idea how to ask a questin, but I need help" questions. However, you do need to send me code and notes.
- The prologue will not be available until tonight.
