Handouts

Exercises

Exercises ( including the printout of the source code ) should be submitted either in class
or to my mail box ( box #398, Shrieber building, second floor ).

The source code itself should be placed in your home directory.
For example, the source code file relevant to question 3 of exercise 2 must be named ~/intro2cs/ex2/q3/q3.c.

Before you submit each exercise, you must run a script that compiles all the source code files and gives permission to read and execute them.
For example, before submitting exercise 1, you must run the script /users/courses/intro2cs/05a/compile_ex1.

You can solve exercises in pairs, but you must clearly say who you worked with.
You must write the solution on your own.

Exercise 1 Due 16/11/2004 12:00
Exercise 2 Due 5/12/2004 18:00
Exercise 3 Due 26/12/2004 18:00; The Frog Enigma and its Solution
Exercise 4 Due 4/1/2005 12:00
