>Work through the book yourself before the class, and be prepared to deviate from the text, because I will guarantee from personal experience that the student's will deviate from it.

I'm working on that, but at night, allthough I just sent out a repaired exe, I might do it at the office today

>Make sure that you know where any typos are ahead of time. I haven't worked through that book, so I don't have any intel where you will find any. Also make sure the examples work as advertised and that you understand them.

I gave typing them and will download the example to night and test them

>When I'm teaching software development, there is one exercise that is never covered in any text. I give the students sample code without any comments, and make them comment the code. They can do it in groups, and work together to get the code commented.

Great idea. I think I will take one of my old college assingments, hmm, maybe the Polish calculator ....

>Also, make sure you cover naming conventions and their use and importance.


The text stresses 'meaningful' naming, but does not use Hungarian notation. I do, most of the time, not always in a small function.

Thanks for your advise.
