Previous assignments are listed in the Archives section in the Resources area
found in the pull-down menu above.
Minor revisions to this schedule may be announced by your instructor but will not be
changed on this page since it is used by several instructors and classes.
Chapter 4-
11/13 - PR 4.4:
Review the Course Text material concerning checkboxes. Complete one portion of the assignment
and clean up your errors before moving on to the next. Comment your code carefully.
11/16 - PR 4.5:
This is your final project assignment! Start early!! Use the code from Lab 4.5 and past
lab and homework exercises to develop your on-line order form. Be sure to add comments to your code.
Chapter 6-
11/6 - Lab/Demo 6.1:
Your instructor will demonstrate how to use the computer simulator and
the PIPPIN assembly language instructions. You must read the on-line text
information and instructions carefully. The Help for PIPPIN handout
gives you all the information needed to begin using an assembly language.
11/11 - HW 6.1:
All modern computers understand only one language - binary code. You must develop
some expertise in moving from the human base-10 world to the computer's base-2
world. This assignment will give you some practice in this area.
11/13 - Lab 6.2:
Your instructor will demonstrate how to use the Rosetta simulator. It is
important that you understand how binary instructions are generated from
higher-level program code.
11/13 - Lab 6.3:
With this lab, you should make the final connection between high-level programming,
binary coding schemes, and the translation process. You will practice converting
arithmetic statements written in a JavaScript-like format to binary format. Work
through the lab instructions in a step-by-step fashion. Don't be afraid to repeat
any steps you dont understand. Ask your instructor questions and use the evening
help hours if necessary.
11/20/17 - HW 6.2:
This assignment will require you to bring together the skills you developed in
the in-class labs. Read the assignment carefully and submit the required
information in the manner required by your instructor.
Chapter 7-
11/20 - Lab 7.1:
This lab will introduce you to Logg-O, an applet that allows you to build circuits
using the traditional "gates" discussed in class. Logg-O will be demonstrated in class.
Use Logg-O to construct the simple circuits described in 1a - 1f (last paragraph
of the lab). The six examples will only require three simple circuits and you can
place all three on the same Logg-O panel. This will be done in class so there is
nothing to turn in but you will receive credit for completing the lab. If you
have any problems, ask your SA or instructor for help.
11/23 - Lab 7.2:
Now you will be asked to build increasingly complex circuits using variants of the
basic AND, OR, and NOT gates. Using the procedure for converting truth tables to boolean expressions
and logical circuits discussed in class, complete steps 1 and 2 of this lab and save the result
to your CS103 folder as LAB722.dat. Start with a clean board and construct the XOR
circuit described in step 3 following the same procedure as you used for the NOR circuit.
Save this circuit as LAB723.dat. Finally complete steps 4a and 4b. Save 4a as LAB724a.dat
and 4b as LAB724b.dat. Show all four circuits to your SA or instructor to receive lab credit.
11/23 - Lab 7.3:
Complete this lab exactly as directed through STEP #2. DO NOT DO STEP #3! The diagram for
the One-bit Half Adder is on the handout you received in class. Save the diagram to your CS103 folder
as halfadd.dat. Show this circuit to your SA or instructor to receive lab credit. Be prepared
to explain how this circuit mimics binary addition.

Chapter 4-
With this chapter you will be adding JavaScript features that
provide additional power to your programs. By monitoring and
controlling events, by creating forms that accept
and process data from users, and by using arrays to store and
manipulate large amounts of data quickly and easily, you will be able to
write code that has real-world application. In fact, as you surf the web you should be
able to recognize the use of these concepts in commercially prepared
pages. As the culmination of your programming experience, you will
develop code for your project that acutally provides a service to
the user.
Chapter 4 marks the end of your project work. In addition to the usual grading
rubric, you will be given an overall grade for your project based on subjective as
well as objective criteria. Remember, your project counts toward 15% of your
final grade in this course (see course syllabus).
Exam #3-
The third examination is scheduled for Monday, November 16 . It will
include all class material covered in Chapter 4. All exam sessions will be
held during your regular class time. The course website is closed during all
examination sessions.
Chapter 6-
With this unit you will enter an entirely different realm of computer science. How
does your computer really work? How does a program you write in JavaScript or HTML
actually get executed at the machine level? Chapter 6 will begin to introduce you
to the structure and internal workings of your computer. You will explore assembler
language coding and binary representations of operations and data. Finally you will
get a glimpse of what happens inside the microporcessor of your computer.
Chapter 7-
We now move to the lowest structural level of the computer and relate the binary machine code we looked at in the
last module to the simple switch. Using the various types of switches we will build increasingly complex circuits
which, in the end, result in a functioning computer.
