Coding Assignments Due
  • Zelle 4e - Chapter 7 Coding Assignment
    Description: See instructions document below. There are no dedicated tutorial videos for this coding assignment. Instead, each exercise of this assignment has been associated with one of the sample programs that were included in the download named Demonstrations to Supplement Zelle 4e Chapter 7. The instructions for each exercise identify which sample program to consult. The instructions also provide a reference to a place in the Beyond the Textbook lecture video (timecode provided) where that sample program is discussed. So, you may use that portion of the lecture video as your tutorial for the exercise.
