CS368: Learning a New Programming Language
PIAZZA - Lec 1, Spring 2015

  • Make sure to check Piazza to see if your question has already been asked and answered before posting.

  • Do not post your code for assignments on Piazza, but it is okay to post the code that we've provided to all students.

General Information:

To help manage questions about the course and assignments, we'll be using Piazza, which is a FREE tool provided to students. Piazza will help ensure consistent and correct answers as well as minimize duplication of effort from repeating answers to the same questions.

CS 368 students can post questions either publicly or anonymously. Students can also answer questions. Instructors may post notes as well as answer questions and endorse student's answers.

CS 368 students will need to register for Piazza or, if you've already registered, add CS 368 to your Piazza class list.
