Note: The "Extra Exercises" column provides additional practice exercises that you can try. These will not be graded, and are separate from the homework assignments. You are always welcome to bring questions on these practice problems to office hours. We strongly recommend that you try some of these exercises as you will need to be comfortable programming in Racket by the third week of the course!
Supplementary Videos! If you had trouble following one of the class lectures in the first half of the course below or would just like a review of similar material, you now have the option of referring to an excellent collection of YouTube videos based on the corresponding chapters of the Readings in the HTDP textbook below.To find the videos, visit the Systematic Program Design channel and then refer to the CS 1101 website to determine which videos in the "All Modules" list corresponds to the HTDP chapter(s) you are interested in reviewing. The additional exercises referred to in these videos can be found at EdX.
NB: Although these videos cover roughly the same material with the same basic approach, they are not a replacement for the course lectures!
