If you don't have one, contact Computer Science Center. Theoretical material from the textbook will be assigned for home reading. Plenty of problems will be given. Classroom time will be devoted to answering questions, discussing solutions of problems, and in-class exams. Discussion by e-mail is also encouraged.
Active participation is required.
This means that you should attempt to understand a topic or to solve a problem yourself, without waiting for somebody to explain it. All homework assignments will be given before any explanations of corresponding topics. If, after the attempt, you still do not understand something, try to formulate what is the obstacle and ask appropriate questions. The questions may be submitted to me by e-mail. I may ask students to present solutions of problems in the class.
