Additional Resources:

IDEs
Your programs need to work in the standard environment as we evaluate them on dev.cs.hacettepe.edu.tr. Although you could work on command line, Eclipse is the best way to work with Java.

• Eclipse (Linux, Mac OS X, Windows)
• Eclipse Tutorials

General purpose text editors

• Vim (Linux, OS X, Windows)
• Emacs (Linux, OS X, Windows)
• Sublime Text (Linux, OS X, Windows)

Communication:

All course communications will be conducted via Piazza. Please enroll in the BBM102 and BBM104 Piazza courses for the current semester.

Policies:

Attendance to lectures is mandatory. Those who do not attend more than 4 of the classes will fail BBM102 directly with F1 grade. You are responsible for all material presented in lecture. Some of the course material is not covered in the textbook. All work on assignments must be done individually unless stated otherwise. You are encouraged to discuss with your classmates about the given assignments, but these discussions should be carried out in an abstract way. That is, discussions related to a particular solution to a specific problem (either in actual code or in the pseudocode) will not be tolerated. In short, turning in someone else’s work, in whole or in part, as your own will be considered as a violation of academic integrity. Please note that the former condition also holds for the material found on the web as everything on the web has been written by someone else. Those who do not deliver at least 80 percent of the assignments will fail BBM104 directly with F1 grade. F1 disqualifies a student for make up exam/assignment.
