in a binary search tree.
See BinaryNode_rotations.ppt.

Oops, I had incorrectly linked to the instructor survey for Stephanie (see below). If you already took the survey, would you please email Deb and also retake the correct survey. Deb would like to provide some information to Stephanie regarding how many students took the instructor survey.
The correct link for the student survey is at:
https://mywebspace.wisc.edu/rastraub/web/
You must take the survey from Internet Explorer

I received this request from Stephanie Simon, a UW-Madison senior:
My name is Stephanie Simon and I am a senior at UW-Madison. I am
currently participating in the Public Relations Student Society of
America's Bateman Competition, during which my group and I will
develop a strategic campaign to bring attention to the issue of
academic misconduct on this campus.
According to research conducted by the Gallup Organization, two
leading problems facing U.S. society today are education and ethics.
In order to create an effective campaign to intensify attention to
this problem we are conducting a survey of both UW-Madison students
and faculty to gather data on attitudes towards academic misconduct.
She asks, that you take the survey found at:
https://mywebspace.wisc.edu/rastraub/web/
and submit your results. Please note that this site is ONLY accessible in Internet Explorer.

The lecture slides for Tues (11/2) and Thurs (11/4) have been posted early so that students
may reference them while working on Homework 2 and for study for the second Midterm.
There may be differences between these and those actually used in class.
|

Students who expect to complete the work required to declare a CS major by the end of this semester
should contact Bob Holloway (bobh@cs.wisc.edu).
|
| 10/28/04 | I answered an FAQ on the A3 web page. Please be sure to review the page for announcements regarding the assignment.
|
| 10/22/04 | Sorry, you may NOT use recursion instead of a
stack of Frames for A3. You must implement the Frame class and use a stack of
Frame objects to keep track of the state of each function's evaluation.
|
| 10/19/04 | Assignment 3 is available and is due Monday, Nov 1st, 2004 at 11:59pm. |
| 10/17/04 | The syllabus has changed.
We will be covering the Stack ADT on Tuesday 10/19, instead of the Dictionary ADT.
Please read Chapter 20 for Tuesday's Lecture (10/19).
|
| 10/15/04 | Please email questions to both of the course TAs,
as well as Deb.
|
| 10/13/04 | Several students have asked about using code from
other sources for A2. I have said that students should author their own source code
for A2. That is the only way to gain the experience and understanding that A2 is intended to
provide.
However, you're unable to get your sort working correctly, it is better to reference your
textbook, ask a TA or myself to get the problem resolved. Doing a web search for code should
not be used for this assignment. If code from any source other than yourself or your project
partner is used, you must cite the source and how it was used.
|
| 10/13/04 | The exams have been returned.
Students have until Tuesday, October 19th, to request a regrade of their exam.
Exams grades may be viewed from the CS instructional machines by using Mozilla to open your report.html file. It is located at:

Be sure to change talogin to the TA for your lecture and login to your CS login.

The International Collegiate Programming Contest is a yearly computer
programming competition for undergrads and beginning graduate students
from all over the world. It is organized by the Association for Computing
Machinery, and consists of two tiers: a regional contest and the world
finals. Since UW-Madison started participating three years ago, we have
always been able to advance to the world finals, and we would like to
keep up that tradition.
This academic year, the regional contest will be on November 13, 2004, and
the world finals will be April 3-7, 2005 in Shanghai, China. We will start
preparing for the competition soon.
If you're interested and are within the first five years of starting your
post-secondary education, please attend the planning meeting on Monday,
September 20, at 7:30pm in CS&S 2310. For more information, see
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~dieter/ICPC .
Hope to see you at the meeting,
