CSE 143 : 20 Jun 2000 : Welcome

Contacting me

For most purposes I am klee@cs, though messages to cse143-staff@cs or the uwash.class.cse143.bboard newsgroup may be answered more rapidly since the entire staff has access to them.

All section materials that I prepare will be posted to the section web page. Currently, I am storing my section materials at the following URL:

http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/klee/courses/143/index.html

If you want to reach me anonymously, you can do so using the following form:

http://depts.washington.edu/ctlt/catalyst/umail/mail.cgi?user=keunwoo&form=1

Office hours are to be determined. I will probably hold them at the lab in Mary Gates Hall. Check the course web page or my page for updates.

C review

C topics you should be familiar with:

• Parameter passing, functions
• Pointers and addresses
• Control structures (for, while, if/then/else, switch)
• Operators (boolean, arithmetic, reference/dereference) and expressions
• Using standard libraries and library functions
• Basic data structures: arrays and structs

Structs

/* C way */ // C++ way typedef struct { struct Student { int id; int id; char name[40]; char name[40]; } Student; };

Structs can be nested. Can you rewrite the above so that the name is a nested struct that contains 2 members for first and last names?
