Attendance Management • Attendance check will be at beginning of class. • Latecomers can request an attendance code for delayed registration. – The code has to be mailed together with name and student-number to the TA. Concepts of Programming Languages 10

Some Remarks … • Nowadays computer programming is an important task in the “work world”. A lot of jobs require programming skills. • Knowledge about the structure and concepts of programming languages helps to learn programming languages • English is an important communication Medium in today's global world. Try to improve your English skills by active listening. Concepts of Programming Languages 11
