Programming Methodology (CS 106A) is an introductory computer science class which is typically the largest of the introductory programming courses with enrollment of ~1300 students per year. It is usually the first exposure undergraduates get to computer science at the college level, especially if they have little or no programming experience. The class meets for 3 50-minute lectures a week (typically Monday, Wednesday, and Friday), and each student also signs up for a weekly section, which is led by an undergraduate CS 198 Section Leader.
