Goals

  • The purpose of this "assignment" is to make sure that you can surf the Web, send email, login to your arizona account, write a C program using emacs, compile it, and submit it.

  • Checklist

  • The programming assignments in the course packet specify the general programming assignment. However, you should consult the assignment checklist to determine exactly which files to submit and which output to include (as this changes from semester to semester). The checklists usually supply extra hints or clarifications. Also, we include links to any preliminary code provided in the course packet (enhanced with comments).

  • Not much to say for Assignment 0, but be sure to submit it. If you don't, the rest of your assignments will not get graded. Part of Assignment 0 is to fill out the questionnaire on the Announcements page.
