Welcome to the Intro2CS_2025A wiki!

This is the starting page of the Introduction to Computer Science course at Ariel University (2025A). The course requires NO background in programming or computer science, yet, it is a comprehensive and demanding course. You are expected to attend classes, review the reading materials, and complete each and every home assignment (alone and on time).

General Tips on how to start (on the right foot):

  1. Make sure you have a working PC to work on, Linux, Mac, and Windows are fine, generally a 4-year-old PC should be sufficient for the job, do check the IntelliJ page for more info on installation: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/installation-guide.html#silent
  2. Install IntelliJ (see above link) and make sure you are using Java version 21 (or above).
  3. Create a new project with a main class - complete and run it - make sure it works.
  4. Download the first class examples run them and make sure they are running.
  5. Start working on Ex0 (the very first assignment).
  6. Clone the course repository and make sure the examples of class 2 are working for you.
