This is the schedule for CSCI1321 during Spring 2008. The table below lists what we will be discussing in each class meeting as well as the required readings and the due dates for assignments, quiz dates, and test dates. Some of the readings are for specific classes or packages, in which case you should read the API at the Sun website. The topics listed are what you will be applying each day at the beginning of class. The readings should be done by the time you show up to class. At the end of each day I will spend time lecturing on the topic we will be applying the next day.
