How to use the course home page:
Please refer to the links on the left for details about other specific topics. Throughout the semester, these pages will be updated regularly.

The information page contains details about the lecture schedule, the course description and the textbook: .
Please pay particular attention to: academic integrity, syllabus and faq.
The academic integrity page emphasizes the fact that I expect you to do your own work. I hate that I even have to spell this out, but please read it carefully and remember it. It is easier to "just say no" then to face the consequences of getting caught cheating.
The syllabus page will be updated after every lecture, with an outline of what was covered in class. The brief notes found there are not a substitute for coming to class! I reserve the right to examine you on material discussed only in class!!!
The faq page will be updated with answers to questions about anything of general interest, particularly with regard to assignments. You are strongly encouraged to keep abreast of the notes posted there before you hand in an assignment. Often questions arise late the night before an assignment is due, in which case the TA's and/or I will post answers on this page as long as we are awake...
Finally, here are some hints for how to succeed in cs1007.

So, I hope you enjoy the semester and learn a lot about Java and Computer Science. Please feel free to contact me with any questions and/or concerns. Email is by far the best way to reach me: sklar@cs.columbia.edu

cheers,
