Here's my extra lecture blather for all chapters up to the Midterm:
My lecture notes for the second half:
Programs - the fun part of class
Here are two important links for all our programming work. Easy and important.
-
Prof Bill’s Java Coding Guidelines - one page worth of coding guidelines for class
-
Java SE8 API spec - reference Javadoc pages for all the system classes in Java
Here we go:
Program #1 Video List - This is a strong start for us. Linked lists in C. Start early! And don't forget to visit my helper file as well: C Programming Helper. I'll be updating the helper over the course of the assignment!
Program #2 Funky List - a return to Java with a generic gui version of our Program #1 lists. Start early! I'll be updating my helper file over the course of this assignment: Program #2 Helper.
-
Program #3 CoCo - CoCo = Color Counter... with many fun data structure choices! Our test suite of CoCo images is here: coco/index.htm
-
Program #4 Graph Finale - our last program... the Graph Finale!
Etc - everything else, mostly links
Blah blah blah.
Data Structures
visualgo.net - "visualising data structures and algorithms through animation"
chara.cs.illinois.edu/cs225 - the data structures class at Illinois
homepage.cs.uiowa.edu/~bmccune/021/coursepage.html - a class at Iowa that uses our textbook
www.cs.usfca.edu/~galles/visualization/Algorithms.html - This is our MOST VALUABLE resource... great visualizations and animations of many of the data structures and algorithms that we are studying. Huzzah!
Potpourri
getbootstrap.com - I used Bootstrap to build this page
startbootstrap.com/template-overviews/one-page-wonder - I used a Bootstrap theme called One Page Wonder
piazza.com/subjects/computer_science - this page got me revved up about give Piazza a try
