99.9.7  Course Prerequisites
According to the Calendar, the prerequisite is "familiarity with a high level programming language" which could be java, C/C++ or a good course in Pascal. I will assume your programming level is the same as those who took 308-202, in the language that you studied. You may take 202 as a corequisite if you meet this requirement. If you do not have a good programming background, take 202 before 250.
