Program 1 - January 8

Visual Studio Practice

Before you can do "real" programs, you need to become familiar with your tools. In this case the tool is Microsoft Visual C++ in the Visual Studio interactive development environment (IDE).

After reviewing the material in Chapter 1, complete each of the five programming projects starting on page 36. Turn in your source file for #4 only, but be prepared to discuss your results on the other items in class.

This is also your first opportunity to make sure you are able to turn in assignments. For all assignments, you should turn in the files requested and nothing else. In most assignments, you will be asked to turn in your "source file". That means the ".cpp" file in which you typed your code. You don't need to turn in anything else to "prove" the program worked. I will compile every program and run it myself. You will lose credit if I can't compile your program.

The preferred method for turning in your work is by attaching it to an email and sending it to me. This is best done to my outside email address cpoole@pooleconsulting.com but the Shoreline address will also work. You may also turn in your work on a 3 1/2" diskette or a Zip disk. I'll try to get the disks back to you but I don't guarantee you will have your disk back in time to use it the next week.
