The official notice board for csci-e215. Students, please check this page regularly for announcements http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib215/ Bruce will be at the science center Wed 25 Nov from 6:30PM-8:30PM. Check the classroom and/or lab. http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib113/news/index.html#091121.1 On the Assignment 6 Page is a link to a script that shows how to process command line options as well as filenames. http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib113/news/index.html#091119.1 Please read the faq at the /project page for more http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib113/news/index.html#091118.1 If you read the source code to ws13.c, you will see that the delete() method comments say that function is not correct and says you have to correct it. Please do so. http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib113/news/index.html#091112.1 The project assignment #5 has been posted. http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib113/news/index.html#091031.1 The page for tt2ht now has links to two sample solutions. These are good examples of programming style and effective algorithms. http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib113/news/index.html#091021.1 The word frequency counting project is posted on the http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib113/news/index.html#091012.1 Use this command from your account on nice:~lib113/handing pptrs http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib113/news/index.html#091006.1 The assignment on pointers is posted. It is due in a week. http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib113/news/index.html#091003.1 When you run who on the web server via a cgi page, nothing shows up. The reason is that there are no people logged into that machine. Recently (since last year, I think) the web server is a dedicated machine that regular users do not login to. Therefore who shows no people logged in. A more useful, user-related command is last -10 which shows the last 10 logins on the machine. A few entries may show up. The output of last is also a text table with well-defined columns. http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib113/news/index.html#090930.1 A subtle lack of consistency between the nice machines on which you compile code and the web server on which the cgi scripts run causes C tools (like tt2ht) to fail mysteriously. A solution is to compile with the -fno-stack-protector option, as in cc -fno-stack-protector tt2ht1.c -o tt2ht1 We hope to have this cleared up soon. http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib113/news/index.html#090926.1 The second assignment is now posted on the Assignments section http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib113/news/index.html#090923.1 note1: day not time The text version of the assignment used to contain an version of problem 6 that asked you to write code to find bad values in the TI field. The current version asks you to find bad values in the day field. Please do the current version. note2: backslashes in problem 3 The program you write is supposed to retain the backslashes. Therefore: Inputoutput "hello"hello "he said \"hi\""he said \"hi\" "hello\t\n"hello\t\n "use \\ to get \ in C"use \\ to get \ in C http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib113/news/index.html#090917.1 The webpage for Assignment 1 has a link to a piece about finite state machines. This information can help you a lot with the first assignment. http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib113/news/index.html#090909.3 The article at this link explains clearly the basic principles of building and using tools http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~lib113/news/index.html#090909.2
