CSSE132 - Intro to Systems Programming
Class Description[edit | edit source]
This class will introduce you to the Linux operating system, the C programming language, and Assembly programming. Most of the homework assignments are 50% coding and 50% paper. Most of the programming topics will concern the C language rather than Assembly. Due to the fact that this class teaches coding in Vim, it is required to use Vim on the coding parts of exams and highly recommended to use Vim for coding assignments.
