Much Fun! Message-ID: Hi ACMers, I'd like to announce out first official meeting of SIG Code, at 4:00 P.M., Thursday September 12th--somewhere around the ACM lounge (depending on where there's room for us). We're going to be playing around with Haskell, a purely-functional programming language. I'm reading up on Haskellisms in preparation for the meeting, but all you have to do is show up with an open mind. Functional programming languages are different from most the languages you're familiar with, so consider this a good chance to explore a part of coding you're less familiar with.

I hope everyone is having a great week so far! Just to let everyone know, we will be hosting our first SIG Fun Anime Night of the semester this *Friday, September 13, 2013 at 5:30PM* in the CS Tunnel(behind the ACM/LUG office, SELE 2268B). This week, we will be watching *Summer Wars*! *Synopsis*: When timid eleventh-grader and math genius Kenji Koiso is asked by older student and secret crush Natsuki to come with her to her family's Nagano home for a summer job, he agrees without hesitation. That's when Kenji discovers his "summer job" is to pretend to be Natsuki's fianc? and dance with her at the family's birthday celebration. As Kenji attempts to keep up with Natsuki's act around her family, he receives a strange math problem on his cell phone which, being a math genius, he can't resist solving. As it turns out, the solution to the mysterious equation causes a hijacking of the social networking site through which most of the world's social and business traffic flows. Hope to see you there!

Note: this meeting schedule is not yet permanent That said and since I would like to have something done this week, I will be in the office on Friday at 4:30pm and anyone interested on getting a head start can come, get most of the introductory information (so what will probably be most of the first meeting), and get started with the first few intro tasks.

I've been experimenting with Haskell, and I've made a program that takes a Minesweeper Grid and figures out what all the numbers of the squares are, returning what a completed minesweeper game would look like. Since it's Haskell, it can be mathematically proved that this works, so after we look over the code, maybe we can generate some ridiculous tests in python, and see if Haskell can still tackle the oddities.

[September 23 - 27, 2013] | Linux InstallFest! [September 27, 2013] Message-ID: <523E73A3.5030600@uic.edu> Hey Linux Newbies! This week, the Linux Users Group (LUG at UIC) will be hosting their annual Linux *Newbie Week*! Newbie week will start on September 23 and conclude on September 27. For those of you who don't know, Newbie Week is a chance for new users to learn more about Linux! At first, Linux may be a daunting thing to handle... With all these terminal commands and unfamiliar toolsets. We hope that after learning about Linux, you will understand a bit more about the operating system and perhaps gain an appreciation for all the Linux goodness! ;-) If you are a CS major you are bound to dabble with Linux at some point or another, so get a jump start on learning more about Linux! Each day this week, LUG will present a topic relating to Linux and YOU(the newbie). The schedule is as follows: * September 23, 2013 @ 5:00PM - Installing Ubuntu Linux * September 24, 2013 @ 5:00PM - Using the Shell * September 25, 2013 @ 5:00PM - Connecting to Linux From Other Systems (Remote Access) * September 26, 2013 @ 5:00PM - Using Linux at UIC * September 27, 2013 @ 5:00PM - Working with Code Each presentation will be presented in SELE 2254 and/or around the LUG/ACM Office area. For those of you who would like to try out Linux on your own computer, we will also be having an *InstallFest* as well! For those interested, we will help out anyone willing to install Linux on their own computers (or at least a VM) at the conclusion of Friday's presentation! If you have any questions, please let us know by beginning a discussion on the ACM/LUG listserv or by contacting one of the LUG officers directly. Hope you're ready for a Linux-filled week!

Great Challenge Opportunity, the ACM-ICPC Practice Tournament! Message-ID: Hi guys, Sean and I mentioned last week the ACM-International Collegiate Programming Contest (betcha didn't realize ACM was that big!). For those of you who weren't there or don't remember, the ICPC is a challenging day of code writing, where you work in a team of 3 to produce the algorithms and expected output format to 8 problems. As we mentioned, about 3 are easy, 2 are medium, 2 are hard, and 1 will make you question your own sanity. If you're interested in giving it a try, but not sure if you're up to competition level (don't worry, you don't need to be at any particular skill level to compete there either--you should totally do it), there's a practice tournament on October 5th. That's a Saturday, and you'll probably be going at it for most the day. REGISTER NOW. Don't ask why, just do it. If you're not a programmer yet, you will be when you've finished your first competition. http://cs.baylor.edu/~hamerly/icpc/qualifier_2013/ Cheers, Ian Swift SIG Code -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I hope everyone is having a productive week! Just to let everyone know, we will be hosting our first SIG Fun Movie Night of the semester this *Friday, September 27, 2013 at 5:30PM* in the CS Tunnel(behind the ACM/LUG office, SELE 2268B). This week, we will be watching *Despicable Me*! *Synopsis*: In a happy suburban neighborhood surrounded by white picket fences with flowering rose bushes, sits a black house with a dead lawn. Unbeknownst to the neighbors, hidden beneath this home is a vast secret hideout. Surrounded by a small army of minions, we discover Gru, planning the biggest heist in the history of the world. He is going to steal the moon. (Yes, the moon!) Gru delights in all things wicked. Armed with his arsenal of shrink rays, freeze rays, and battle-ready vehicles for land and air, he vanquishes all who stand in his way. Until the day he encounters the immense will of three little orphaned girls who look at him and see something that no one else has ever seen: a potential Dad. The world's greatest villain has just met his greatest challenge: three little girls named Margo, Edith and Agnes. (Written by Universal Pictures) Hope to see you there!

Some things I'll lead the group through, and some things we'll need to figure out together. Pen and paper programming is highly used in the upcoming ICPC, so this should be useful. That's all, hope to see you there! Cheers, Ian Swift SIG Code -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
