The course will cover three topics:
-
the C programming language,
basic system software and the UNIX programming environment,
introduction to C++.
A short bibliography for the course.
The main textbook used in the course: A Book on C---3rd or 4th Edition, by Kelley and Pohl. The book is at its 4th edition, but for all the course's purposes the 3rd edition is as good. One of the advantages of this book is that its example programs are available on-line: unix version / dos version.
The final grade will be determined by your assignments grade (25%) and the final exam (75%). To be eligible for a final grade students must submit ALL exercises. There will be four assignments, consisting mainly of programming exercises. The assignments distribution and submission will be coordinated by the TA (METARGEL).
During the course you will need an account on the school's UNIX machines. How to open an account.
Notice: The course is given in parallel by
Daniel Cohen-Or. The final exams will not be identical---they will
reflect some variations in the material covered in the two classes.
Students will be required to take the exam of the class where they are
registered.
