  5. The software Warning The exercises rely on the Traffic “library” Not everything is perfect from our side. The Traffic software probably has mistakes (“bugs”), Application domain: Transportation system in a city and the textbook does, too. (in the book: Paris in this course: Zurich) BUT: � We will correct our mistakes, as quickly as we can. You will need to download: � If you try something, don’t blame the software � EiffelStudio: first. It may be doing just what you told it to. eiffelsoftware.origo.ethz.ch/downloads/builds/ � Traffic: traffic.origo.ethz.ch/download.html (this can wait until next week). I ntro. to Programming, lecture 1: Overview 25 I ntro. to Programming, lecture 1: Overview 28 Discovering Traffic Why this approach? Many software issues become really tough for big systems With other approaches, in an intro course, you only see small programs We give you lots of software; use it as model & inspiration You learn to use software through abstract interfaces (also known as contracts ) You go from consumer to producer: outside-in Traffic is graphical and fun! You should at the end be able to understand all of it. Then you can add to it yourself I ntro. to Programming, lecture 1: Overview 26 I ntro. to Programming, lecture 1: Overview 29 Behind the software Tootor (Marie-Helene Ng Cheong Vee) � Patrick Schoenbach (initial version) (Univ. of London) � Michela Pedroni (current Traffic project leader) � Till Bay (EiffelMedia library) Tool: helps you solve exercises, gives feedback Numerous ETH students including: Marcel Kessler, Rolf Bruderer, Ursina Caluori, Roger Küng, Alan Fehr, Sarah Hauser, Michele Croci, Data collection: help Matthias Bühlmann, Florian Geldmacher, Susanne us improve the Kasper, Lars Krapf, Valentin Wüstholz, Stefan Daniel, teaching. … I ntro. to Programming, lecture 1: Overview 27 I ntro. to Programming, lecture 1: Overview 30 5
