• By popular demand, the due date of assignment 6 has moved 2 days back. The new deadline is Tue. Jun. 10th midnight.
• Assignment No. 6 has been posted. You need to complete it by the end of the semester. Its due data is June 8th, and there are no special allowances. Take a look at assign6 for a list of standard C functions I used in my implementation, and more.
• If there are at least 3 students interested, I'll extend the practice on Tue. May the 13th by ~30 minutes to make up for last week.
• The due date of assignment No. 4 has been postponed to Sun. May 4th. Nevertheless, assignment No. 5 has been posted. I suggest for those that don't need the extra days, to start working on the new one.
• The formula for the cubic B-spline originally presented in the assignment has an error. The correct formula is:

  R(x) = 1/6 ( P(x+2)3 - 4P(x+1)3 + 6P(x)3 - 4P(x-1)3 )

  Notice the coefficients of the 2nd and 3rd terms. Thanks for Omri Iluz for pointing it out me.
• A make up practice is going to be held on Sun. Apr. the 13th at Orenstein 102 between 14:00-15:00. I'll concentrate on the photo program (needed for assignment 4). You are all invited.
• There is going to be a make up practice at Orenstein 102, 15:00-16:00 on Thu. the 10th, instead of the Tue. practice that didn't take place (everyone is invited). For those of you that cannot make it, I may conduct another practice on Sun. the 13th. If you are interested in a practice on Sunday, send a message to me and choose the time convenient to you, either 14:00-15:00, 15:00-16:00, or 16:00-17:00. I'll reply back and post the final time if at all.
