Mini Project 4: Interactive Programming – due Tue Oct 15 ; Tue Oct 22 ; and Tue Oct 29
The big idea of this project will be to move from static programs (ones that are run, do some computations, and spit out a result) to interactive programs (ones that allow the user to perform actions that change the state of the program).
Mini Project 3: Text Mining and Analysis – due 12:00 pm, Tue 15 Oct
Mini Project 2: Computational Art – due 1:30 pm, Tue 1 Oct
In this assignment you will be exploring one particular means of using computers to generate images.
Mini Project 1: Gene Finder – due Tue Sep 10 ; and Tue Sep 17
In this assignment you will be writing a Python program that analyzes a DNA sequence and outputs snippets of DNA that are likely to be protein-coding genes. You will then use your program to find genes in a sequence of DNA from the bacterium Salmonella Enterica.
