All the material for the laboratory lectures is available in a sister GitHub repository: https://github.com/marilenadaquino/computational_thinking/.

The additional material about the project of the course is described at https://github.com/essepuntato/comp-think/blob/master/2017-2018/project/README.md.

All the algorithms introduced in the various lecture notes as well as all the exercises that required the creation of an algorithm are now available at https://github.com/essepuntato/comp-think/tree/master/2017-2018/lecture-notes/python, implemented as Python files. Similarly, all the algorithms requesed in the various exams are now available at https://github.com/essepuntato/comp-think/tree/master/2017-2018/exams/python, implemented as Python files.
