Assignment A0: Portfolio Setup

Deadline:

See course calendar.

Operational Objectives:

Create and submit one text file of contact information. A side-effect of submitting this assignment is to set up a "portfolio" into which your submissions for later assignments will be placed for grading.

Deliverables:

Tasks:

1. Create and work within a separate subdirectory of your course directory named A0.
2. Use emacs (or vi if you favor that editor) to create a text file named info.txt containing the following information:

   (one blank line at top of file)
   Name:          (your official registration name at FSU)
   Nickname:      (examples: "Bob", "Harriet", "Mr Smith", "Ms Smith", "Mrs Smith", "Dr Smith")
   CS Username:   (your CS login name)
   FSU Username:  (your Blackboard login name)
   Phone:         (a phone number where you could be reached in case of emergency)
   Hours:         (hours when the number is valid, e.g., 9-5, evenings, weekends, ...)
   

   Please keep the file format exactly as shown (except for the instructions, in parentheses), including the blank line at the top, the six headers and the blanks for alignment after the colon on each line, and be sure the file ends with a newline.

   Note that this file will reside in your class portfolio, in a directory which is accessible only by the instructional staff.

3. Copy the file ~baker/opsys/assign/A0/submitA0.sh into your A0 directory.
4. Change permissions on your copy of submitA0.sh to executable. (Enter the command "chmod 700 submitA0.sh".)
5. Turn in the file info.txt, using the submitA0.sh submit script. (Enter the command "submitA0.sh".)

Warning: The submit scripts have not been tested on the program and linprog servers. So, always use shell.cs.fsu.edu to submit projects. If you do not receive the second e-mail confirmation (with the contents of your project), there has been a malfunction.

Assessment:

This is a pass/fail assignment, that will not enter into your numeric course average, but it must be completed in order for you to submit your later (graded, for-credit) assignments.
