In this class we discussed the exercises mentioned in our reference book. We covered representative examples of "Debugging Exercises" and "Programming Exercises" for Chapter 2. Each was solved by a student on the blackboard; barring simple error detection in statements.
Further we covered more involved exercises (both in syntax and logic) from Chapter 3.
