LINUX ENVIRONMENT

It will be useful to be familiar with the following Linux commands/programs:

▸ File system: ▹ ls, cd, mkdir, rm ▸ Editors: ▹ vim, emacs, nano ▸ Programming Tools: ▹ gcc (GNU Compiler) ▹ gdb (GNU Debugger) ▹ make (Code building tool) ▹ zip (archiver, compressor)

EXAMS

▸ Midterm (20%) ▸ Final (25%) ▸ Closed book, single page of handwritten notes ▸ No electronic devices (phones, laptops, etc) ▸ Problems will be taken from lectures and textbook problems.

ASSIGNMENT POLICIES

▸

Grading breakdown on the syllabus.

▸

Homework assignments are due at the start

• f class on the given due date.

▸ Follow submission instructions on the homepage carefully. ▸ No late work is accepted.

14

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY

▸ Refer to the syllabus and university guidelines. ▸ What is NOT cheating? ▹ Discussing the design of a program ▹ Discussing concepts and methodologies ▹ Talking about how linux tools are used ▹ Using code given by the professor in lecture, demos, slack, etc.

15

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY

▸ What IS cheating? (This is not an exhaustive list.) ▹ Working with other students on an individual assignment ▹ Copying code from another student (including past students), or from the internet ▹ Letting someone copy your answers/code In short, it is very easy to catch cheating in CS. If you are caught cheating, any and every effort will be taken to end your academic/professional career.

16

REGRET CLAUSE

▸ If you commit some act that is not reasonable but bring it to the attention of the course’s heads within 72 hours, the course may impose local sanctions that may include an unsatisfactory or failing grade for work submitted, but the course will not refer the matter for further disciplinary action, except in cases of repeated acts.

17

REGARDING IDEs

▸ I recommend using and familiarizing yourself with Linux command line tools. ▹ Generally guaranteed to be on your Linux system ▹ Without auto-fill, they tend to make you think about the what/why of what you are doing ▸ With that said, you will likely be using IDEs for most of your work in industry.

18

REGARDING IDEs

▸ IDE’s are (kind of) like spellcheck. Is it bad to use one? Of course not. Do they help with productivity? Indeed they do. Should you be relying on spellcheck instead of learning to spell? Probably not doing you any favors if you do.

GETTING HELP
