There
is no assigned textbook, but concurrent enrollment in CS4320 is required where
the concepts that you will implement in this course are taught.
CS4321 is the practicum associated
with CS4320. You will build major components of a “realistic”
database system. Solid C/C++ skills are required. CS4321 has a
lecture/discussion once every week, where you can ask questions about the homework
assignments. This is not a course in which you are lectured on how to program. CS4321
does not have any exams. Your grade solely depends on four assignments. See the
CMS for assignments, their deadlines,
and grades.
