Examinations: We will tentatively have a final exam.

Outside Programming Projects: Outside projects are programs that you will complete on your own, outside of class time. These will NOT be group assignments, and individual work will be expected. If programs submitted are collaborations between two or more students, the grade will be adjusted accordingly.
