In this work, I adapt materials developed or modified by Pam Lawhead,
Bob Cook, Yixin Chen, Byung Jang, Dawn Wilkins, and perhaps others.

I updated the materials for the context of the Spring 2017 class and
converted them to Markdown. My rationale for using Markdown is enable
the documents to be produced in various formats such as HTML (which I
mostly used), LaTeX, PDF, Word, ePub, etc. and to help keep the
documents accessible in accordance with recent initiatives.

Software used:
    pandoc 1.19.2.1
    Tex Live 2016
    created on macOS Sierra (10.12.2)
    edited with Aquamacs 3.2 (GNU Emacs 24.5.51.2)

Markdown Source Files:
    csci487.md     -- semester-specific course index page
    487syl_sp17.md -- semester-specific Syllabus, template for others
    487schedule.md -- semester-specific Schedule, template for others
    
    487profConduct.md -- general Professional Conduct Affirmation
