Register for ONLY 1 lecture (online OR in person) and one discussion. Enrollment is restricted to majors requiring this course in the fall semester but is open to all undergraduates in the spring semester. For questions contact mathadvising@illinois.edu . The CS 101 prerequisite is one suggestion for programming experience, but students with other programming language experience and eagerness to learn Python quickly should not worry about the CS prerequisite. Students with little to no programming experience should first complete a programming course or have experience equivalent to CS 101/105/124 or STAT 107.
