The practice of programming. Emphasis is on the development of real programs, writing code but also assessing tradeoffs, choosing among design alternatives, debugging and testing, and improving performance. Issues include compatibility, robustness, and reliability, while meeting specifications. Students will have the opportunity to develop skills in these areas by working on their own code and in group projects.
Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:00PM to 4:20PM in Friend Center 006.

The prerequisites for COS 333 are successful completion of COS 217 and COS 226.
You must have completed COS 217 successfully before taking COS 333.
It is possible to take COS 226 at the same time as COS 333. However, doing so is a bad idea unless you are a very good programmer. Specifically, doing so is a bad idea unless you received at least a B+ grade in COS 217. If your COS 217 grade was less than B+ and you want to take COS 226 and COS 333 concurrently, then discuss the matter with a COS 333 lead instructor during the first week of the semester.
The course uses these textbooks:
That book is available in the Princeton University bookstore and is on reserve in the Engineering Library.
All of those books are available through the Princeton Library as e-books.
Please read the Policies, especially those regarding collaboration and plagiarism.
