Week 4

The first lecture of week 4 was mainly a recap of the week 3 lectures on pointers.

The lecture has now been recorded and an audio file (mp3) made available on the lecture slide page for week 4. You can listen to it directly or download to play later. There is also a copy of the slides with one slide per page to view while listening to the lecture.

Reflect

The Reflect system is still under development and for week 4 we have reverted to the previous version. Please use the Reflect tab or this url: http://www.ug.it.usyd.edu.au/~reflect/instances/comp2129/

Reflect

The Reflect system does NOT assign marks automatically. It is a guide for you to see how you are progressing and a guide for the tutor when marking.

Tutors will mark your homework/labwork even if you show them the code in a text editor and the program running, independant of Reflect.

COMP2129 now has a twitter account.

Reflect

There have been some teething troubles with the Reflect system. Hopefully these have been resolved now.

The Reflect tab above will take you to a page containing a direct link to the 2009 Reflect site. After you log in using your SIT username and password (same as used in previous courses) you will be shown the homework and lab tasks.

Due to the problems we will allow homework for this week to be completed by the week 3 lab.
