This schedule contains a tentative schedule of topics we will cover throughout the term; this schedule is subject to change. As the semester progresses, I will update the schedule to show the actual dates on which we cover material, as well as provide links to the lecture slides and programming assignments.

The exams are currently scheduled as shown below. The first exam will be held on Thursday, May 26 in class, the second exam will be held on Monday, June 13 in class, and the third exam will be held Thursday, June 23 in class.
