CIS 122: Algorithms and Programming

The following is the outline of topics and readings for the course. Please note:

Unless it is marked otherwise, all readings are from our textbook, by Knowlton.
The reading assignment associated with a particular day should be completed by the start of class that day, not afterwards.
Readings considered optional are given in [square brackets].
Readings are listed not in numerical order, but in the order that I suggest you read them.
Our location for class is changed to Klamath B26 for all the lectures except for the first one.

As appropriate to the needs of this learning community, we will alter details of any given day to reflect a slower or faster pace.
