91.301 Using Submit

USING-SUBMIT

If an electronic copy of a homework assignment is to be submitted, it
should be submitted BEFORE class begins on the day that the assignment
is due. In the case of hw1, for example, you should put all of your
files for hw1 in your directory
~your-login-name/91.301/hw1-OPL
and you should submit all files in that directory. Set protections so
that no one else can access your work until you are instructed otherwise.
If the instructor or the TA needs to examine your submission, one of them
will explicitly request that you remove appropriate protections
(chmod o+xr ...).

Before you use the submit command, be sure to connect to saturn.
Your electronic submission should be of the form
submit gumb hw1-OPL file1 file2 ...
unless you submit late (at most one week). In that case, your
submission should be of the form
submit gumb Late-hw1-OPL file1 file2 ...
You should submit only ascii files electronically, and so save your
Dr. Scheme interactions as text files. Your electronic
and hardcopy submissions should contain the same information.
Do not change the contents of any file in your directory
(91.301/hw1-OPL for hw1) after you have submitted. Otherwise, your
homework will count as late, and you will receive a grade of 0.

I ask you to submit a hardcopy as well as an electronic copy because it
simplifies grading and the submit command does not always work.
EVEN IF SUBMIT DOES SEEM TO WORK, YOU SHOULD SUBMIT A HARDCOPY.

Begin work on homework early, as e.g. the system being down the day a hw
is due is no excuse for lateness. (Submit places a timestamp with the
submission.) If you resubmit, please include all files, as they will
overwrite whatever is there.

Interesting solutions selected from the submissions for hw1 will be
posted in the directory
/nfs/aviion/cs_faculty/gumb/91.301/hw1
as soon as grading has been completed, and similarly for the remaining
homework.
