Draft course description: . Notes My email address is houghton@maths.tcd.ie and my office is at the top of the maths department, half way between the discussion room and Donal O'Donavan's office. If you want to contact me anonymously, for example to complain about the course, you can use the feedback facility linked from the sidebar. News and a description of lectures is given below and is taken from the course twitter feed. The course is intended as a basic introduction to programming and assumes no prior knowledge. It is examined in three different ways, Freshmen do continual assesment, worth 10% of the final mark, along with a two hour exam; Sophisters who didn't do a second year computing course, do an exam, either as half of a three hour exam combined with MA3471, or as a two hour exam on its own. Sophisters who have done computing before will do a project, the project list is given in the sidebar, it is no expected that these students will attend lectures. Announcements To come. @MA1262 what's new.The picture is an etching by Albert Durer, the image is in the public domain. |
