3. Course Outline Grading: Weekly Programming Challenges (20%)
Lazor Group Project Part 1 (20%)
Lazor Group Project Part 2 (15%)
Final Project (25%)
Participation (20%)
Pass/Fail is based on achieving a grade over 60%

4. Course Outline Programming Challenges:
Weekly challenges will be sent out on Monday, and due by midnight on Sunday.
You are welcome to work together, but turn in your own work!
Challenges will start off easy and progress as the semester continues.
You may not have learned everything prior to a challenge – hence the word Challenge.

5. Course Outline Final Project:
By April 8th propose a project that applies what you’ve learned this semester. Have fun with it! Make a game? Make a calculator? Make something the helps you with your research?
Note, you must get approval for your project or else it will not count.
By midnight of April 29th, turn in your project.
Final projects will be presented on the last week of class!

6. Academic Integrity
Practical problem solving is a key skill you will develop in this class. You are encouraged to discuss challenging lab work with your fellow students; however, every student is responsible for their own write-up. This means that you must personally type every keystroke in your submitted work. The only exception to this rule is if you are asked to work as a team or if you incorporate code or text from material distributed in class or on the class website. You may not copy or edit another student's work and submit it as your own, either in full or in part. You may not jointly edit or compose solutions with another student. The exchange of solutions in electronic, printed, or written form is expressly prohibited. Both sender(s) and receiver(s) will be prosecuted according to the Graduate Academic Misconduct Policy. You may read more information on University Policies here.

7. Inclusivity Statement
This is an inclusive classroom that is open to the views of every student in the classroom.
Please respect the uniqueness of your fellow classmates and appreciate the opportunity to be in an environment where we can all learn from each other

8. What is a Computer? A magical box
A machine that uses ones and zeros to do things
It lets me use the internet

9. Ones and Zeros We count in decimal:
But what if we only knew the numbers 0 and 1?
BINARY!
Computers count in this:

10. Changing Base
How do you read 10,353? Ten Thousand, Three Hundred and Fifty Three = 1 * 10, * 1, * * * 1 = 1 * * * * * 100 How about 10? Ten = 1 * * 100? Two = 1 * * 20? There are 10 different kinds of people out there Those that understand the Decimal System… Those that understand the Binary System… And those that understand the Base System is more than 10 and 2

11. Let’s Have Some FUN! 1210 in base 4 = ? 123 in base 10 = ?
Ans1 = 30
Ans2 = 5
Ans3 = 2
Ans4 = F

12. Logic We want computers to accomplish basic tasks They must “Think”
AND – If two things are true, then do some task
NAND – If not AND – If two things are both not true at the same time, then do some task
OR – If at least one of two things are true, then do some task
NOR – If not OR – If neither of the two things are true, then do some task
XOR – If exactly only one of two things is true, then do some task

13. Logic - AND 1 1 1
AND – If two things are true, then True

14. Logic - NAND 1 1 1 1 1
NAND – If not AND – If two things are both not true at the same time, then True

15. Logic - OR 1 1 1 1 1
OR – If at least one of two things are true, then True

16. Logic - NOR 1 1 1
NOR – If not OR – If neither of the two things are true, then True

17. Logic - XOR 1 1 1 1
XOR – If exactly only one of two things is true, then True

19. Joe Jenn Why Should I Care? 1 Years 10 Years for Jenn each
10 Years for Joe
10 Years for Both
Ask class for a “Dastardly Deed” that Joe and Jenn did.
Prisoner’s Dillema: Joe and Jenn robbed a bank. Unfortunately the cops only have enough evidence for the lesser crime of loitering, and plan to prosecute to the fullest extent of the law (1 year). However, if they can convince one of the two to rat on the other, then they’ll let one free. BUT! If they can convince both to rat on the other, then both go to jail for awhile.
