We will have our fourth candidate for a faculty position speaking in class Monday, March 11. Let's schedule our class work as follows.

1. Discuss the Amuse-Bouche video Wednesday, March 13.

2. Begin discussion of HeathrowToLondon.hs (and a Haskell anomaly) Wednesday, March 13 if we finish with Amuse-Bouche. Finish that discussion Monday, March 18.

3. Discuss HeathrowToLondon.py (and a Python anomaly and some Python alternative approaches) -- Monday, March 18.

4. Discuss more than a dozen ways to compute a simplified version of the Luhn double_and_sum algorithm and identify the intellectual skills involved in generating them -- Monday, March 18.

Each of these discussions will have its own team. So the current assignment will involve four teams. See the assignment for more details.

P.S. Decided to divide the work among four teams rather than 3.

For part 2b) Write equivalent code in Python. (from the Amuse-Bouche hw)

Are we allowed to use Coconut instead ?

Absolutely. Coconut is fine.

Just a minor typo in the hw doc. It says “March 13: Parts 3 and 4” instead of March 18.

Thanks, it's fixed.

That's one of the dangers of copy-and-paste: not changing the parts that should be changed after copying.

You may have noticed that I've been editing the current assignment. It now seems to me that it's worth spending a day on each of the 4 parts.

So we'll discuss the four parts: Part 1 (March 13), Part 2 (March 18), Part 3 (March 20), Part 4 (March 25).

That should give you a bit more time to work on them.
