Folks,

With 30 groups, it is not feasible to have presentations. So I would like you to submit 3 slides.

I have uploaded a PowerPoint template and put a link to it on the assignment page. I also uploaded a text file that you can use if you use Beamer or some other presentation format. But if you do, please make sure I can read them!

This is due on December 12.

Hope this helps,

Matt Bishop

Hi, folks,

Homework 5 had a serious error in it — I accidentally posted a draft. The second question was from homework 4; I changed it in the final, correct version and promptly uploaded the draft.

The homework 5 that was just uploaded is the correct one. Check the time it was posted; if it is “November 27, 2023 at 11:19PM” you have the right one. If you don’t, please download the right one.

Hope this helps,

Matt Bishop

Subject: Homework 1 Problem

Hi, folks,

There was a serious error with Homework 1 — the wrong version was posted. I corrected this on the morning of October 4. If your browser shows a homework due in 2021, refresh the page — it will show a homework due in 2023. That’s the right one.

In the interests of fairness, I will accept either. If you are turning in the older one, or problems from the older one (that's fine), please label is as “Before October 4” so we will know how to grade it.

The bug that caused this has been fixed, so it should not happen again.

Hope this helps,

Matt Bishop

Hello, folks, and welcome to ECS 235A!

A few preliminary announcements.

  1. I cannot give PTAs; the department has a policy (see the Frequently Asked Questions web page for computer science graduates, and look under “Registration” for “How do I get a PTA for a class?”) that must be followed. The department administration will make the decisions around the 10th day of instruction.
  2. This class has a Piazza page. The TA and I will be monitoring it and will jump in when we feel it necessary.
  3. The lectures will be recorded and posted to the “Media Gallery” section of the class Canvas page.
  4. My office hours are Tuesday and Thursday at 11:00am–11:50am Watershed Sciences, and from 3:40pm–43:30pm on Wednesday in room 2203, beginning on Thursday, September 28.
  5. The TA’s office hours are Tuesdays at 3:00pm–6:00pm in 2231 Kemper Hall.
  6. I have turned on Piazza for this class. You can access it through Canvas as well as directly.

I look forward to seeing you all on Wednesday.

Hope this helps,

Matt Bishop
