Attendance
Additional Remarks
80% class, 80% lab attendance is mandatory.
If you fail to attend at least 80% of the lectures or laboratory
sessions, you will fail the course and automatically receive a grade
of FA.
The book is an important resource for this course, but it will not be
followed chapter by chapter. Each exam will cover the material
presented in the class. So it is strongly reccomended that you attend
all lectures.
Keep in mind that algorithmic thinking and programming is brand new
for most of you, and you probably need to allocate more time to this
course than others. Specifically, studying on the last night is not the
way to go if you intend to pass this course with a reasonable grade.
