MCC - CIS161AD CS8ex Classes - Programming Example

CS8ex is a very simple example with a class definition and a driver program which is used to test the class definition. Students should referred to the class definition when completing their CS8 assignment. Students are NOT required to create and submit this project, but students may download and expand the self-extracting CS8ex Classes archive into their own workspace if they like.
