Code of Honor

Discussion is encouraged, but work must be done

independently.
Source code taken from other people's work (not
other students) must be explicitly acknowledged
Violation of the code will lead to immediate failure of
the course
In a nutshell: No plagiarism!

Final notes

The course will not go into GUI, event-driven programming

Not a course on Java programming: syntax, applet, servlet,
network programming,
Self-study is a MUST
Beware: Lecturers/Instructors might be wrong and do not
know all.
Code of conduct
Respect other people.
Be self-responsible.
No question is stupid.
