Notes for October 9, 1998

1.	Greetings and Felicitations!

a.	Updated General Information handout posted to the web

b.	I cannot put some things on web for copyright, or other, reasons; I will put copies of these in the rack hang-
ing next to my door

2.	Puzzle of the Day: 1) it was wrong because the student should have asked permission first. 2) the chairman's 
actions were acceptable, as a full account of the student's actions of breaking in and then confessing all were 
reported. 3) the staff's actions were stupid; they should have secured the hole and then pursued the student.

3.	Robust Programming

a.	Go through handout, emphasizing principles

b.	Information hiding and abstraction
