Due: 9/19/2022 late at night.
This project is to be done by yourself.
Tests: Tests will be made available shortly.
Send questions using piazza or use office hours. If the question is about your code, copy all of of your code into your handin directory (details below) and include your login in your email (you are free to modify the contents of your handin directory prior to the due date). Do not put code snippets into piazza (unless they are very short). Also include all other relevant information, such as cutting and pasting what you typed and the results from the screen. In general, the more information you give, the more we can help.
The project description is found here. Please read this carefully in order to understand exactly what to do.
This project is to be done on the lab machines (listed here ), so you can learn more about programming in C on a typical UNIX-based platform (Linux).
Before beginning: If you don't remember much about the Unix/C environment, read this tutorial. It has some useful tips for programming.
This project should be done alone. Copying code (from others) is considered cheating. Read this for more info on what is OK and what is not. Please help us all have a good semester by not doing this.
You should turn in the entire source tree (.c files and .h files). We will add the Makefile, so don't make any changes to the makefile in your source tree!
The handin directory is ~cs537-1/handin/login/p1a
where login
is
your login. For example, Remzi's login is remzi
, and thus he would copy
his beautiful code into ~cs537-1/handin/remzi/p1a
. Copying of
these files is accomplished with the cp
program, as follows:
prompt> cp *.c *.h ~cs537-1/handin/remzi/p1a/
When done, type ls ~cs537-1/handin/remzi/p1a
to see that all the
files are in place correctly.
Finally, in your p1a directory, please include a README file. In there, describe what you did a little bit. There is no particular requirement for the length of the README; just get in the habit of writing a little bit about what you did, so that another human could understand it.
