Course Description

The focus of this course is to teach you the fundamentals of the Software Developments by practice. It will cover the principals and concepts of software development, Object-oriented programming, fundamental structures and classes of Java, SWING components, and event handling programming.  Term project is building a XHTML browser (individual project).  Therefore, course broadly but lightly covers XML, XHTML, DTD, Schema, Parser, HTTP, socket programming, CSS, XSL to be able to build the browser.

Exams
The final exam is closed book, closed note. Makeup exams will not be given. Absence due to a serious illness will be an acceptable reason for missing an exam, and the final grade will be scaled accordingly.
Final exam is
    on December 17 Tuesday, 10:45 ~ 1:15 pm (Section 3) and
    on December 19 Thursday 1:30 ~ 4:00 pm (Section 4) at regular classroom.
Assignments
All projects are individual projects.  Open discussion is encouraged, but sharing source code is considered as a cheating!!!

Late policy. You may turn in a program up to 5 days late for a penalty of 50 points of the available points (10 points each day). So, for example, if you would have gotten a 70/100 and submitted 2 days late, you will get 50/100. For programs due on Friday, Monday will be considered two days late. After the 5 day grace period, a late program receives no credit.
Only programs that are working correctly will be graded. Pretty print (indentation, etc) and comment programs appropriately. Grades will be based on correctness, readability, the appropriate applications of object oriented techniques, efficiency, etc. You must complete the programs to receive a grade of C or better.

CSC413 Mailing List:
I will frequently make announcements (change due dates, etc) will will not appear in print. You are responsible for all announcements made in class!!!! I will also announce messages through mailing list. I use your sfsu account as a default mailing address. If you don't receive welcome e-mail from me or like to change to your favorite account, please mail to cs413@sfsu.edu specifying your current mailing address, your name and your favorite account.

All assignment should be submitted to cs413@sfsu.edu as an attachment. (Only .java files. Never include .class files)
Grading

The following is the relative weight of each part of the course work. At the end of the semester, you will have a score out of 100 percent. This score will be used in a class curve to arrive at a letter grade.

Projects I & II (10% each) 20% 
Projects III & IV (15% each) 30%
Midterm Exam 20%
Final Exam 30%

Software:

You are free to choose any Java Development Kit (jdk) in the 1.1.x series upto 1.3. Free PC and Mac jdk implementations are available from Sun at http://www.javasoft.com.  The bookstore also has commercial jdk development environment (e.g., Symantec's Visual Cafe - http://www.symantec.com). Please check Sci 254 is our department lab space and all of you will get an account at Unicorn. I strongly recommend to use the machines at the lab.
