Technology

1) Students must have access to a personal computer and a C++ compiler. You can use any browser coding environment like onlinegdb, or an IDE of your preference for most of your assignments.  But, you will be working on the PCC Linux server for the second half of the term. Please read Chapter 1: Getting Started with Linux in the PCC Linux and Vim manual.

2)This course uses an online textbook from zyBooks.com - there is no hardcopy textbook. 

 zyBook code will be in the syllabus. 

[Note: It is better to buy from the zybooks web site than the PCC bookstore unless you have financial aid.  If you have any other subscription concern or question email support@zybooks.com for any issues. The response time is very good.]
