     Make sure to review neutrally -- remember, your grade is not determined by how nicely you grade your friend's work, but by how well have been able to assess his review.
  2. Here's a reminder of an email I sent to you earlier, reminding you about submission (see Sep. 7 announcement below) and adding archiving and executable information requirement. Please follow; those who don't, end up missing points.

• Fri., Sep. 26, 2008: As announced in class,
  1. Wednesday, 1-oct-2008 is Rosh Hashanah (New Jewish Year) so I will not hold class. You are welcome to meet without me (but I don't suppose you will);
  2. We will NOT hold Exam 1 next Friday (3-oct), but most likely two weeks later (17-oct, to be finalized); with this change, I am also changing the number of exams during the semester from three to two, the second one ("Exam 2") will be what was originally scheduled as "Exam 3";

• Sun., Sep. 7, 2008: Homework assignment submissions:
  1. Create a new directory in your home page on our system (directly off the top), call it 91.427_f2008 (mine would be http://www.cs.uml.edu/~haim/91.427_f2008);
