Statements, Program Structure, Comments, Identifiers,
Variables, Compilation, Makefile review.
- Week 2: Classes, New Operators, Class Methods, Friend and Other Identifiers,
References.

Honor Code
As in any class, you are allowed to study with other students. However, tests and homework assignments (unless otherwise specified) must be completed on your own. SPECIFICALLY - YOU MAY NOT COPY ANY TEXT OR MATERIAL AND REPRESENT IT AS YOUR OWN WORK. For both papers and for code, you may reference or link to other peoples work (if it is consistent with the assignment), but you MUST cite the source it came from. Failure to follow these guidelines will be considered a violation of GMU's academic honor code and will be treated as such.
