Announcements

Feb 28: In A3, my sample output had incorrect validation errors. The grading script didn't tell you they were wrong, but your values probably did not exactly match mine. Enough to cause worry. Sorry. They are now corrected in the A3 page.

Feb 27: In the Schedule next to the A2 assignment you will find a link to good examples of reports submitted for A2.

Lecture videos are available at this CS480 video recordings site.
