Chapters
▪ Create a new thread containing the name of the topic/subtopic,
the Chapter, location/page/section number in course textbook,
and location/slide number/page in the Chapter presentation PDF
in the thread subject/title
▪ The post body/message should have a minimum 300 words.
▪ The post should be original and should not cover any previously
posted topics. You are not going to earn any credit for duplicated
topics.

Initial Posts
▪ To find the topic in the Textbook:
▪ Go to the course eCampus Textbook and Software
menu to Course Textbook
Dr. Adriana Badulescu COSC2436 Programming Fundamentals III 5
Initial Posts
▪ Go to the Table of Contents, find the Chapter and find
the subtopic in the book
Dr. Adriana Badulescu COSC2436 Programming Fundamentals III 6
Initial Posts
▪ For example, if I want to talk about the first subtopic in the book
which is about using recursion for computing factorials, in the
textbook, I am going to go to the Chapter 18 and find the
subtopic, which is in section “18.2 Case Study: Computing
Factorials“.
Dr. Adriana Badulescu COSC2436 Programming Fundamentals III 7
▪ Chapter is Chapter
18
▪ Section is 18.2
▪ Name is “Case Study:
Computing Factorials“
▪ Page is 721
Initial Posts
▪ To find the topic in the chapter presentation
PDF:
▪ Open the Unit, find the Reading Assignment and
Practice Exercise for the Unit and open the
ChapterX.pdf where X is the chapter number
▪ Find your subtopic
Dr. Adriana Badulescu COSC2436 Programming Fundamentals III 8
Initial Posts
▪ For the example, I am going to go to eCampus and
open the Chapter18.pdf presentation under Unit 1,
and the subtopic is on slide 4.
Dr. Adriana Badulescu COSC2436 Programming Fundamentals III 9
Initial Posts
▪ Thus, for the example, I am going to name the Initial Post:
“Case Study: Computing Factorials – Chapter 18 – Textbook
Section 18-2 – Page 721 – Presentation Slide 3”
▪ Then make a minimum 300 words post in which I summarize
in my own words what is factorial, what is recursion, why
should I use recursion for factorial, how would the code
would look like, explain how would it work, why using
recursion is better/worse that other methods.
