Hi Prof Pranavan, we can work on the existing codebase from SoC (if permitted) and make changes to course content here. This is the least costly, safest fallback option.
This course will be delivered in blended learning mode (i.e., a mix of online and F2F activities) this semester.

Week 2 [Mon, Jan 19th] - Summary

Umm... you've finished Week 1 tasks already, right? If not, please finish them first before starting on this week's tasks.

Noticed any issues (even minor typos) in the course website (or in resources in se-edu/guides)? Have suggestions for improvements, or noticed a part that wasn't clear?
You can earn bonus participation points by reporting them in the forum.
