  11. Logistics: Course Content Course Content: • R Data Structures • Functional Programming • R Graphics & Visualizations • R Workspace Development • Probabilistic Implementations • R Machine Learning Applications Shin Introduction

  12. Logistics: Lecture Schedule & Office Hours Weeks 1 - 2: • Lectures: Tuesdays/Thursdays 2:15 PM - 3:30 PM @ Hewlett 201 Weeks 3 - 9 (No lecture week 10): • Lectures: Tuesdays 2:15 PM - 3:30 PM @ Hewlett 201 Shin Introduction

  13. Logistics: Prerequisites & Corequisites CS109 • Pre/Co-requisite • A CS109 (or equivalent) background will give a better appreciation from the course. That being said, anybody should be able to benefit from the material that we will cover in CS109L, especially towards the end of the quarter. • Recommended. Shin Introduction

  14. Logistics: Prerequisites & Corequisites CS109 • Pre/Co-requisite • A CS109 (or equivalent) background will give a better appreciation from the course. That being said, anybody should be able to benefit from the material that we will cover in CS109L, especially towards the end of the quarter. • Recommended. CS106B • Prerequisite • A CS106B (or equivalent) background is required for understanding the course and completing assignments as both require prior programming experience. • Highly recommended Shin Introduction

  15. Logistics: Assignments Assignments: • Graded on a “1” or “0” rubric Shin Introduction

  16. Logistics: Assignments Assignments: • Graded on a “1” or “0” rubric • Two deadlines per assignment for flexibility: • “turn in” deadline (optional): If you turn in an assignment, you will receive a grade and have the option to re-submit a final version of the assignment. • “redo” deadline (final): Final resubmission deadline after the “turn in” deadline. Assignments will not be accepted past this deadline. Please refer to cs109l.stanford.edu for more detailed information on assignment grading and specific due dates. Shin Introduction

  17. Logistics: Course Grading Course Grading: There are a total of 3 assignments throughout the quarter. To receive credit in the course you accomplish the following: • Satisfactorily complete Assignment 0: R Training Bootcamp by its “redo” deadline. • Satisfactorily complete at least one of the following by their “redo” deadlines. • Assignment 1a: Liar’s Dice • Assignment 1b: Shiny Development Please refer to cs109l.stanford.edu for more detailed information on course grading. Shin Introduction

  18. Logistics: Final Note Install R! • The instructions for installing R are in a handout located on the website. • Should take < 10 minutes, so please install R by the end of this week! • Feel free to run through the example code in R to get a better sense of what’s going on after lectures.
