Lecture Week 9: Networking, Web Services, and Python


Course Meetup: Tuesday, Mar. 23

The next course meetup at on Tuesday, Mar. 23 at 12:30pm on Zoom. We will use the same link all semester long (same as last week, and you can find it in Compass 2g as the only announcement for CS 240).

Note: COVID-19 Non-Instruction Day

This Wednesday (Mar. 24) is the second of three COVID-19 “Non-Instruction Day”. Since CS 240 does not have any scheduled activities on Wednesdays, this will not impact the course.

However, the final “Non-Instruction Day” is finally on a Tuesday (April 13). For that week, we will have no lecture make certain to have a significantly easier week with less work presented and due during the week since our course is a Tuesday/Thursday class and you’re off for 50% of that week. :)

Lecture Handouts

  • Lecture Handout for Week #9: PDF

As you go through the lecture notes, you can print this out or use a tablet to fill in key ideas from the notes! They’re designed to cover the same sample problems you’ll see in the lecture notes! :)

Lecture Topics

In our previous course meetup, we chatted about exploring a hybrid approach to lecture notes. This week is a first pass at this approach with three detailed articles:
