 ===== Week 2 January 9=====
-Discuss Assignment 1. Complete Requirements/Mathematical Model. Discuss in detail the requirements document for the the return on investment calculator (this may take at least two weeks). This is in preparation for a large assignnment to be handed out next week.
+**Tuesday**: Discuss Assignment 1. Complete Requirements/Mathematical Model.
-**Required reading**: A rational design process: How and why to fake it, Parnas and Clements [[http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=9800\h|here]] (available online via the library).
+**Thursday**: Discuss in detail the requirements document for the the return on investment calculator (this may take at least two weeks). This is in preparation for a large assignnment to be handed out next week. Slides on tabular expressions (due to David Parnas). Can check input for completeness and disjointness.
