Hello

[Gregory Enriquez]

Hey everyone,
I am Greg. I will be helping out both Frank and you guys this semester
in CMPE 130. I will also be dropping by after the Tuesday class for
those who want to come to give you guys some tips and prepare you for
your guys' midterm on Thursday.

As a general tip for exams: I cannot emphasize how important it is to
not only complete the homework/labs, but also to do them well. The
better you know you're own code and how to change/modify it, the much
better off you are. Last, the time constraint for the exams will
likely be your biggest challenge. We all know writing code takes time,
and debugging takes even longer. So writing very modular, maintainable
and modifiable code before the exam will save you a lot of time during
it.

Last, a few posts before this have listed online references to help on
Lab 2. I first used these also but later found that the Weiss book
(page ~97) helped out a lot more because it explained the design more
visually and in much more detail.

Greg,

Thanks for helping out.  In terms of midterm prep on Tue, if you can come earlier during the class, it will be good too.

All,

For the midterm, I'll write main.cpp prototype, using class names of "Student", "StudentDB", and "MathExp".  So, if you can figure out the refactoring, (change names across your program), it will improve your efficiency.
