As Chris said today, the projects are able to be done in pairs and I think this is a good way to meet other people doing the unit! The idea is that it would be a good way to sit down and go over the material covered that week or really anything that people want to go over in an informal setting. Reid Library collaborative area straight after one or both of the lectures might be a good idea, and if anyone's interested I'm happy to hang around for an hour or two to go over anything and get to know some of you! I'll be in the collaborative area from 4-6PM today and on Thursday too if anyone replies to this. Feel free to email me as well if you're keen and I'm happy to organise it!

Hey Jake, Yeah I'm keen, but can't do it after either lecture. I'm free 13:00-15:00 Tues and all day up to our lecture on Thurs. If that suits?? Thanks Dave From nelsoj07@csse.uwa.edu.au Wed Jul 29 12:40:09 2015 Date: Wed Jul 29 12:40:09 2015 To: help2002@csse.uwa.edu.au Received: from 10.20.235.222 Subject: Study group From: "Jake Nelson" <20752958@student.uwa.edu.au> X-smilie: none X-img: none Awesome David, yeah I can do earlier on either day. Say Thursday at 1PM, collaborative area at the bottom of Reid?

We have regular competitions with universities from Australia and New Zealand, and it's a great opportunity to improve your programming, learn advanced algorithms and solve fun problems. It's also a good way to get noticed by employers (e.g. about 10 students have gone from the programming comp to Google in recent years). The competitions are held on some Saturdays and students compete in teams of up to three. Students are given a set of algorithmic and programming problems, and have to complete as many as possible in 5 hours. The competition is run online, so you would be competing against some of the best student programmers in Australia and New Zealand. Also, the school of Computer Science and Software Engineering generously provides a pizza lunch for competitors. On August 22nd, there will be a Divisional Competition where teams will be competing for a place at the regional final, to be held in Auckland this year. We will also run training sessions this semester on Wednesdays at 5pm in room 2.28 in the computer science building. Here you can learn advanced algorithms and programming techniques, even if you’re not able to compete. If you’re interested in finding out more, come along to the next training session on August 5. You can find out more on the UWA ICPC forum: https://secure.csse.uwa.edu.au/run/icpcforum (you can sign up for email updates there if you’re interested, because I won’t be sending out any bulk emails after this one). Let me know if you have any questions, From maic04@csse.uwa.edu.au Fri Jul 31 17:30:46 2015 Date: Fri Jul 31 17:30:46 2015 Edit: Fri Jul 31 17:32:22 2015 To: help2002@csse.uwa.edu.au Received: from 58.7.121.167 Subject: Study group From: "Vu Mai" <21296878@student.uwa.edu.au> X-smilie: none X-img: none I would also be interested in a study group if there are any more.
