CS 14 Homepage

First Task - Lab Practical

Complete the lab practical as assigned by the TAs. You will have 1 hour and 30 minutes to complete the practical. You will turn in your lab using the electronic turnin. WATCH THE TIME! The electronic turnin will be gone 1 hour and 30 minutes after the scheduled start time of your lab section and ASBOLUTELY NO LATE LAB PRACTICALS WILL BE ACCEPTED NO MATTER WHAT THE REASON. You may not use ANY reference material at all.

Second Task - Mid-Quarter Evaluations

Please fill out an anonymous review of the course. The link is available here. We would like you to answer the following questions, so that we can put on a better course for you:
  1. Comments for/about the instructor (Ann Gordon-Ross)
  2. Comments for/about your TA (Titus Winters, Xiao Zhang, or Keri Nishimoto). Please include your TAs name in your response.
  3. Comments about the in-lab exercises
  4. Comments about the programming assignments
  5. Comments about the quizzes
  6. Comments about the lecture homeworks
  7. Comments about the in-class exercises
  8. Give the first names of 6 people in the course.
  9. When did you take CS 12 / attempt CS 14 before.
  10. If you took CS 12 at another school, tell us what programming language and development platform was used, and whether it was difficult to make the transition.
When you are done, show your TA the "Thank you page" and you'll be marked down for 1 point. The evaluation must be completed during lab time.

Third Task - Templatized Insertion Sort

For this lab you will be working alone. There is alot to do during this lab section and if you do not finish during lab time, you may finish outside of lab. The lab is due 24 hours after your lab section ends. However, try to finish during your scheduled lab time and demo your program during lab.

You will be writing a templatized version of the insertion sort algorithm. You will then use your sorting function to sort arrays of ints, floats, chars, and a user defined class (obtainable here). The user defined class will consist of a first name and a last name string. Instances of the class will be sorted by last name and then by first name. You will need to overload one or more operators to accomplish the sorting of the class instances.

You will also need the print functions obtainable in print.cc. Please note that I could have used a template function instead of giving you 4 different instances of the print function, one for each type sorted. .25 extra credit points will be available for replacing the print function with a templatized print function and implementing any necessary overloaded functions to acheive this.

Point Breakdown For Lab Assignment

You may demo your program in lab or it will be graded from your electronic submission (due 24 hours after the end of your lab section). Please show the output from main.cc to the TA if you complete the lab. The TA will also look at your code for correctness when checking out. Remember, to receive credit for this lab, you MUST turn the code in online even if you have already demoed in lab If you do not turn in your code online, you will lose points for your lab. All code must be turned in online for archival purposes.

Remeber to compile your code using the flags "-g -Wall -W -Werror -pedantic". You must use a makefile.
