5.  We will write lots of code on the board and on a computer.  You should take notes and write the code yourself as a way of studying what we talked about.  There will be lots of programming homework.  Work on the assignments as soon as they are given. You will not likely succeed otherwise.  You have to learn a lot of ‘rules’ about programming.  Learn them; although some of these rules are trivial (not important), most are not trivial.  If you have a laptop, install Java and BlueJ.  You can then work on your laptop and even in class. 5 WHAT TO EXPECT
