=== Monday, 27 September ===
+
The 2016 edition of 6.034 will offer an optional 3-unit add-on set of lectures given by Professor Robert C. Berwick. This addition will supplement the main lectures and recitations because it will focus on the science side of 6.034, addressing long-standing scientific questions and biological intelligence, rather than existing tools for building applicationsEvolution and  human language will be emphasizedBefore registration day, we will explain here exactly when and where the supplement will meet and how you can indicate your interest.

==== Python ====
 
-
The official language of 6.034 is Python for a variety of reasons having little to do with the strengths and weaknesses of the language.  We expect a focused weekend with any of the many Python books would be adequate preparation.  See, for example, the [http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/books/285856/ref=pd_zg_hrsr_b_1_5_last Amazon list].

Alternatively, you can follow one of the suggestions of Rob Speer, head 6.034 TA in 2008:
+
== News ==
-
* [http://diveintopython.org Dive into Python] is a well-recommended book that is available online. It's written for experienced programmers who just don't know Python yet. It's meant to quickly take what you already know about other languages and explain how Python does them.
+
===June 2016===
-
* At the other end of the spectrum, the text that was used in 6.00 has been expanded into one called ''Think Python''. It's [http://www.greenteapress.com/thinkpython/ online]. It is targeted at people who have not programmed much or at all.

 +
In the fall semester of 2016, 6.034 will meet Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10 to 11
 +
in 10-250. Most, but not all of Professor Winston's lectures will be on Monday and
 +
Wednesday. On many, but not all Fridays, you will learn about what is happening in the
 +
field right now from someone who is doing work right now in an area related to the
 +
Monday and Wednesday lectures.
-
* In the middle is the O'Reilly book ''Learning Python''. MIT has a subscription to O'Reilly, so anyone with an MIT IP address can read the book [http://proquest.safaribooksonline.com/9780596513986/ online].
+
Examinations will cover material from the traditional lectures as well as the right-now lectures. It will be extremely difficult to field questions on the right-now material if you do not attend the right-now lectures because the material is not yet in textbooks or, in many cases, published papers.
-
<!--
+
Recitations (previously known as "tutorials") will meet weekly on Monday and Tuesday.  On the first day of class, you will fill out a form that will enable us to assign you to a recitation.
 +
6.034 is no longer offered in the spring term.
-
=== Friday, December 18 ===
+
More details will emerge during the first lecture on Wednesday, 7 September 2016.

The registrar has the grades and promises they will be on WEBSIS by the end of the day.

-
Friends,
+
<big>
-
<ul>
 
-
<li>Final examinations have been examined, and you can examine yours in my office on or after Monday, December 21. By institute rule, you cannot take your final away from the vicinity.
 
-
<li>Alternatively, you can learn your grade via WEBSIS.  We will submit grades tomorrow, and they should be up early next week. 
 
-
<li>Alas, you cannot get your grade any other way. By institute rules, we cannot give out grades by email or by telephone, nor can we post grades. In particular, if you go to the Undergraduate Office, and ask for your grade, you will drive the normally kind, courteous, and helpful Anne Hunter crazy with rage, which will be viciously directed at the 6.034 staff.

New opportunity in 2016

The 2016 edition of 6.034 will offer an optional 3-unit add-on set of lectures given by Professor Robert C. Berwick. This addition will supplement the main lectures and recitations because it will focus on the science side of 6.034, addressing long-standing scientific questions and biological intelligence, rather than existing tools for building applications. Evolution and human language will be emphasized. Before registration day, we will explain here exactly when and where the supplement will meet and how you can indicate your interest.

We are pleased to note ...

...that Bloomberg has listed 6.034 as among "Five of the Best Computer Science Classes in the U.S."

What they meant to say is that 6.034 has had outstanding TAs. Among them is head-TA Jessica Noss, the 2016 winner of the EECS Carlton E. Tucker Award for outstanding teaching as a graduate-student teaching assistant.

News

June 2016

In the fall semester of 2016, 6.034 will meet Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10 to 11 in 10-250. Most, but not all of Professor Winston's lectures will be on Monday and Wednesday. On many, but not all Fridays, you will learn about what is happening in the field right now from someone who is doing work right now in an area related to the Monday and Wednesday lectures.

Examinations will cover material from the traditional lectures as well as the right-now lectures. It will be extremely difficult to field questions on the right-now material if you do not attend the right-now lectures because the material is not yet in textbooks or, in many cases, published papers.

Recitations (previously known as "tutorials") will meet weekly on Monday and Tuesday. On the first day of class, you will fill out a form that will enable us to assign you to a recitation.

6.034 is no longer offered in the spring term.

More details will emerge during the first lecture on Wednesday, 7 September 2016.

What should I take after 6.034?
