FAQ means Frequently Asked Question (List). If you are interested in object-oriented programming, you might want look at this FAQ that I found on the net. It contains much much more than you need to know in CSC148, and at a very general level. It is quite long, so DON'T PRINT IT at school or you'll use up your quota. This is for your interest only, and you are NOT REQUIRED TO READ IT.

July 11: Length of your part II answer of A3

Several people have asked how long the answer to part II should be. Please try to keep within 2 typed pages. A little bit longer is ok, but the TAs will stop reading after 3 pages. That means you'll have to devote about half a page to each of the 4 methods.

Several people were wondering:

Q: Should my bisection routine return the 'left' value, the 'right' value, or the midpoint?
