What every computer science major should know Portfolio versus resume Having emerged from engineering and mathematics, computer science programs take a resume-based approach to hiring off their graduates. A resume says nothing of a programmer's ability. Every computer science major should build a portfolio. A portfolio could be as simple as a personal blog, with a post for each project or accomplishment. A better portfolio would include per-project pages, and publicly browsable code (hosted perhaps on github or Google code). Contributions to open source should be linked and documented. A code portfolio allows employers to directly judge ability. GPAs and resumes do not. Professors should design course projects to impress on portfolios, and students, at the conclusion of each course, should take time to update them. Examples Technical communication Lone wolves in computer science are an endangered species. Modern computer scientists must practice persuasively and clearly communicating their ideas to non-programmers. Specific recommendations Java

newfinancepage.html Scott Burton Financial Software Projects Graduate Division - Computer Science Tuesday 7:10-9:00 WWH Room WWH 3 This course will be taught by a veteran Wall St. technology manager currently employed at a top tier investment bank. The theme of this course will be “applied case study” and will focus on Fixed Income markets. Pre-requisites: It is assumed that the students can code in C++ or C for the server side. No prior experince in the financial sector is required - just a desire to learn it. Reference Materials: Software Engineering: Soul of a New Machine - Tracy Kidder The Mythical Man - Month - Fred Brooks (this is the only text students will need to purchase) Application Domain: (should be available in library): The Handbook of Global Fixed Income Calculations - Dragomir Krgin The Money Markets - Marcia Stigum Security Analysis - Graham and Dodd Handouts Course Objectives: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Grading policy: The final project will be a working app built using the library submitted at mid-term.

fcamuso Vuoi diventare uno sviluppatore di software ma non sai da cosa cominciare. Qui troverai centinaia di video organizzati in playlist e percorsi per: - sviluppatori WEB: sviluppatori Desktop: sviluppatori 'mobile': sviluppatori games: Ogni percorso prevede: corso base, esercizi, progetti avanzati (in progress...), sorgenti da scaricare (non sempre nei video più datati ma mi sto organizzando e comunque basta chiedere ;) ). Una comunità in crescita di appassionati disponibili ad aiutarsi, con il sottoscritto in prima linea (dai un'occhiata alle tonnellate di post!). Tile Based Map & Nav Location South Africa Posts 733 The Tile Based Map & Nav package, available on the Unity Asset Store, will help you get started with a game where you need a tile based grid system. This is especially useful for turn-based strategy games and board games.Some features * Works with Unity 3 and Unity 4 * Full source code (C#) * Hexagon and Square tile layouts * Tools to quickly create new layouts/maps * Custom inspector and Editor windows * Easy setup of 'tile-type masks' (ex. land, water, wall, etc) * Variable Height Nodes & Tools to ease setup of node heights * Unit movement options (hug/align to floor/terrain mesh and jump) * iOS/Android supported * Various sample scenes Note, This package is best suited for maps of 80x80 tiles or smaller.

Does your package work with non-flat maps as well? Posting Permissions

Advanced Data Structures (6.851) Prof. Erik Demaine TAs: Tom Morgan, Justin Zhang [Home] [Lectures] [Assignments] [Project] [Problem Session] Data structures play a central role in modern computer science. You interact with data structures even more often than with algorithms (think Google, your mail server, and even your network routers). In addition, data structures are essential building blocks in obtaining efficient algorithms.
