If you haven’t been reading the
newsgroup, go to it right now. That’s where all the action is. Keeping this page up to date is not as easy
as I thought it would be.

Old exams are now posted in the Midterms and Exams section of the web page.
IMPORTANT: Section 103 (9-10 AM Tuesday) has been cancelled. If you were enrolled in that section, you will need to switch into another section. We apologize for the inconvenience, but we don’t have enough TA hours available to cover six sections now, so we unfortunately have to eliminate the section with the lowest enrollment and attendance.
Abe has left us to go TA for CS 169 instead, so we have a new TA, Shoaib Kamil. The assignment of TAs to sections has changed slightly; see the table below for more information.
Sketch of Solution to programming assignment 1 is posted.
Programming assignment 2 is posted (will be handed out on 9/5).
Webcasting: sorry, we can’t do it (costs too much).
Substantial extra reading material: my notes on the chapters in Appel’s text are now in the handout directory.
Written assignment 1 is due Sept 10 after class.
Sept. 9: Written Assignment 1, due Tuesday Sept 10 5pm is posted.
August 28: Section 106 meeting location is 405 Davis.
IMPORTANT:
No DISCUSSION SECTION MEETINGS THE FIRST WEEK. We will get you started at the first lectures, Tuesday afternoon.
Make sure you know where the class meets!!! 160 KROEBER HALL (we moved it from our earlier assigned classroom which had no video projector!)
CS 164 is designed to acquaint students with the design and
implementation of high-level programming languages. The course consists of a
theoretical component, which stresses general underlying concepts, and a
practical component, which consists of a significant course project. Projects
will be written in ANSI Common Lisp.
You can read the (current draft) of the first day handout (pdf)
CS 61A, CS 61B, and CS 61C or equivalent. This means you know Scheme and also Java or C/C++.

Copies of the lecture notes
will also be made available on the course home page. See the bar to the left.
The class home page for this semester is http://www-inst.eecs.berkeley.edu/~cs164.
All course handouts, answers to frequently asked questions, lecture notes, and
updates on assignments will be posted. The class newsgroup is ucb.class.cs164. It should be accessible from
any Unix machine on campus via any browser or any newsreader (such as `rn' or
`tin'). Please check the home page and newsgroup regularly for important course
information. Although we will attempt to avoid changes to assignments, there
may be occasional corrections, and there will certainly be hints. These will
appear first in the newsgroup.
