Assessment
● Lab and participation: 15%
○ 13% lab (1% per lab)
○ 2% participation (Slack Q&A)
● Assignment: 50%
○ 6 programming assignments (breakdown in prev. slide)
● Final exam: 35%
● Attendance
○ Penalty will be given if you miss more than 2 classes without
valid reasons (details in the later slides).
10
Labs
● There is a lab (practice class).
● You will practice what you have learnt during
lectures with many good examples.
● Feel free to ask questions! TAs are there to help.
● Use your own laptop for the labs. If you need one,
contact TA.
11
Lab Evaluation
● Each lab will take 1% of the overall assessment.
● You will get full marks if you attend the lab and
complete the lab assignments.
● The goal is to help you follow the lectures and
labs.
○ This is not to differentiate grades.
12
Assignment
● There will be 6 assignments.
● Submission guidelines will be announced
● Total 3 grace days are given for the whole semester.
○ When you hand in the assignment after the due date, grace
days are automatically used.
○ Submitting “1 second” late uses 1 grace day.
○ Submitting “24 hour + 1 second” late uses 2 grace days.
○ After you use up all grace days, you will get 0 point for any
late submission.
13
Final Exam
● Please mark this on your calendar!
● Date and time, Place
○ TBD. We will announce once the place is confirmed.
14
Final Exam
● Written exam
● Offline exam
● Closed book
● Scope: Materials covered before the exam date
15
How to Contact TAs?
● Send an email (26-1-cp-ta@[Link]) if you have
any questions that are difficult to solve.
● Write “[CP2026]” in front of the email title.
Ex) [CP2026] Question regarding HW1
● Indicate your name and student ID in the email content to
help TAs to handle your request.
● Requests sent to other emails (e.g., TAs’ personal emails)
will not be answered.

Why Do I Need to Take This Course?
● Computing is rapidly expanding its domain!
○ Computing innovates conventional principles and
methodologies in businesses and academic disciplines.
● You will be involved in software projects as an
engineer, an entrepreneur, or in other roles.
● Building software involves various skills but
programming is the cornerstone.
28
Course Connections
● Java and C++ are used in many future courses.
● JAVA
○ Data Structure
○ Algorithm
○ Introduction to Data Mining
○ Mobile Computing and Its Applications
● C/C++
○ Systems Programming
○ Operating Systems
○ Computer Graphics
○ Compiler

W3Schools
● Prepare for the class & lab sessions with
W3Schools!
[Link]
● We don’t grade this but it is highly
recommended that you study the basics before
the course starts.
30
W3Schools
● We recommend studying until “Java Methods” by
3/23. (Estimated time: 2 hours)

+hidden extra challenge!
● Use class knowledge + LLMs, challenge any worthy ‘Real world problem!’
● Kaggle gold medal, Submitting academic paper, building Start-up company
○ Pick a real-world process with a measurable KPI (time, cost, accuracy, user effort).
○ Combine OOP, DSA (structures/algorithms) + LLMs (retrieval, tools, agents) to
improve it.
○ Show impact: baseline vs improved metrics.
● This is optional challenge. I’ll take top 5~10 reports.
○ For a reward, I’ll upgrade your final credit.
36
+hidden extra challenge!
● Kaggle Gold (Competition)
○ Pick an active competition. Make a small team with clear roles.
○ You can use your knowledge + LLMs to brainstorm ideas, review code, and write a
short solution card.
● Academic Paper (Research)
○ Aim for a workshop/short/demo paper (4–6 pages + artifact).
● Start-up (Venture)
○ Prove yourself
