Problem set 2, which is about search, is released. It's due October 3rd, but you may find that looking at it now helps you prepare for Quiz 1.

September 21, 2007

Final date has been determined by the registrar: Tuesday, December 18, 9:00AM - 12:00NOON

September 20, 2007

Holiday

There is no class on Monday, September 24. All students with Monday tutorials are encouraged to find a Tuesday tutorial they can attend for quiz review.

Problem set 1 grades

Problem set 1 has been graded. To see your grades, you can look in /mit/6.034/grader/ps1/(your username) on Athena, or (in most cases) you can run /mit/6.034/bin/show-grades. We're still trying to figure out why this doesn't work for some people.

E-mail 6.034-tas@mit.edu if you think your grade is incorrect. If you messed up, not the grader, you can re-submit your code for the late deadline this Friday.

September 13, 2007

Problem set 1 is released. Note that this problem set includes a new tester that requires DrScheme version 370 or later.

September 12, 2007

If religious holidays prevent you from attending classes, and you want to be filled in on what those classes cover, ask your TA or recitation instructor.

September 5, 2007

Some notes about the structure of 6.034:

Quizzes and evaluations

There will be 4 in-class quizzes.

The final will be organized into parts corresponding to the quizzes. If you have a bad day on one of the quiz days, you can make up for it on the final, as we propose to give you the higher of the two grades.

All quizzes and the final are open book, open notes, open problem sets and solutions, open everything, except for computers.

Lecture, Tutorial, and recitation times

Lectures are on Mondays and Wednesdays, tutorials on Mondays and Tuesdays, and recitations on Thursdays and Fridays. In addition, there is a "megarecitation" at the same time and place as the lectures, but on Fridays, and not every week, as indicated on the calendar. In particular, there is no megarecitation during the first week of class.

Roughly, the purpose of each element is as follows:

Element Purpose
Lectures: To introduce most of the material and provide the big picture
Tutorials: To provide help with the homework and assess understanding
Mega recitation: To demonstrate how to work problems of the kind that tend to show up on the quizzes
Regular recitations To introduce some of the material, answer questions, provide additional

perspective, and be a venue small enough for discussion

Times and places of recitations and tutorials

If you have not yet filled out recitation and tutorial scheduling forms, please pick up spare copies and leave them at 32-251 as soon as possible. You will learn which tutorial and recitation you are in by email.

There will be no tutorials, regular recitations, or megarecitation during the first week of class, the week of September 3.
