Overview

PR2 will be handled slightly differently than PR1. To start with, all of the instructions will be in this zip file: pr2.zip. You may browse these files online here: pr2/.

All materials (see Materials) must be submitted to Canvas in a zip file by 11:59pm on October 12 to not loose promptness points.

Primary skills assessed

PR2's focus is on more advanced programming skills than PR1 and the following skills will be assessed. See pr2/point-breakdown.txt for exact point breakdowns.

• planning software projects
• writing C++ programs:
  • programming style
  • outputting data to a terminal screen
  • interacting with a user via a terminal
  • variables (declaring, initializing, using, naming)
  • branching (if and switch statements)
  • loops (while, do while, for)
• communication
• problem solving
• creativity
• effort
• participation

The following materials are required in order to earn promptness points. All files must be submitted to Canvas in a zip file by the deadline to count.
