CS 257: Intro to Non-Imperative Programming: Scheme!
Spring 1999, TAPY 201, MWF, 11:00-11:50
Important News
The 2pm Monday recitation section was moved to noon in TAPY 219.
Unfortunately there was a major screwup, and registration was told
that the 2pm was canceled and a new noon section was being
created. Registration proceeded to disenroll everyone from the 2pm
section.
If you're one of those people, please make sure you're enrolled for
one of the recitation sections - we don't care which - you don't have
to attend the one you're enrolled for, you can attend whichever is
convenient. Also, there should be no fee associated with this,
because it was a screwup. If registration tries to charge you, and
refuses to listen to your explanation that you don't have to pay
anything, please talk to Linda Cicarella (CS admin offices, 3rd floor
FEC, NW corner) and she'll straighten it out for you.
Instructors and their Schedules
Your guides in the discovery of your inner lambda nature are
Professor Barak Pearlmutter and his intrepid trio of TAs. For
lecture, recitation and office hour locations and times, see the page
on instructors and their schedules, which
includes a table that allows you to see where to score your next
Scheme office hour fix at a glance.
Please note that all of us enjoy shooting the Scheme bull outside
of official office hours. In particular, feel free to drop by my lab
and shoot the breeze. On the other hand, shameless grade grubbing
should be confined to designated office hours!
Email and Web
To be in the class, you must email
cs257-request@sweat.cs.unm.edu
a message including your full name, your preferred email address, and
your CIRT user id.
Details about the class mailing list are available on a separate page.
Syllabus
The syllabus will be revised as the
semester progresses, as I change my mind about how much coverage
various topics should receive. Links to lecture notes, keys for the
quizzes and problems sets, and other important material will be added
at appropriate points.
Lecture Notes:
Rules for submission of Lecture notes:
- Please send them in plain text (no preformatted HTML)
