- Read the notes posted online for the day.
- Read the relevant sections in the book. Each day's reading is given in the schedule.
- You do not have to understand everything that you read. Make a list of questions. ASK in class!
- Try out a few of the programming exercises in GeeksForGeeks, LeetCode, or Kattis.
- If you have problems, visit the TAs during office hours. Sign up and we will help you with your program.
- If you are not programming, you are not studying.
- Your study time will be approximately 10 hours per week. Schedule your time accordingly.
