Welcome to the home page for CSCI 134D, Algorithmic Problem Solving with Robots!
This course follows a lab-based format, meeting in the Schow Science Library Laboratory SSL 027 every day:
- Monday, Wednesday, and Friday between 9:00 am and 9:50 am.
- Tuesday between 1:00 am and 4:00 pm.
This course has NO prerequisites! Although the course moves along as a moderate and steady pace, the course is self contained and does not assume any background with computing. Talk to the instructor whenever you encounter obstancles or challenges that seem to require special background or insight!
Students with substantial background in computing (e.g., students who have taken IB Computer Science or AP Computer Science A) should talk to the instructor about taking a later course rather than this introductory course.
Materials for this course have been extensively revised over the past academic year. Please browse the syllabus, course details, schedule, and other elements of this course site for course details.
Features of this on-line course site:
-
By default, the navigation on the left of this home page shows class-session information, based on today's date. To find data for another date, add a query string with the desired date in the format yyyy-mm-dd. For example: to obtain course information, based on September 15, 2016, use the URL:
http://www.walker.cs.grinnell.edu/courses/134.fa17/?date=2017-09-18 -
With this course update, the course is organized into segments, and segments contain one or more sessions (with readings, examples, a lab, and other resources). Both course and scheduling information are stored in a central database, so all views of the course (e.g., schedule, deadlines, information for a specified day) are synchronized. Of course, only the course instructor is authorized to update the database.

All navigation links should now function, although refinements are underway. Please report problems or provide feedback to walker at cs.grinnell.edu.
