The Style Basics In addition to following the design recipe, all code must adhere to the following basic style guidelines: * Organize your program top-down, regardless of how you actual work through your wish list. The phrase “top down” means that project files consist of a general purpose statement, a data definition and a constant definition section, a main function, followed by sections for handler functions, and wrapped up by general utility functions.

Lab 8 - Spring 2021 Abstraction (or, if you copy/paste, you'll be toast!) Today's lab will give you practice with abstraction, local definitions, passing functions as arguments to other functions, and generally with the satisfaction that comes from avoiding duplicate code.

Lab 6 - Spring 2021 Lab #6: Call the plumber This week in class we learned about trees, and saw two examples of data definitions of trees: a rumor mill and a pipeline. We designed one function in class for a pipeline, which determined whether there was water running. We followed the Design Recipe and the data definition from the lecture notes. We developed a template for a function that consumes a pipeline, and returns a boolean value.
