1. How do I submit programming assignments and projects?

Please use “submit” command on “mercury.cs.uml.edu” for it provides SSH protection of your submission during the transmission. Use the following command line:

submit wang 561hw1 <your program file or directory>

to submit homework 1. For other homework submissions, change “561hw1” to “561hwn”, where n is the homework number, e.g. “561hw2”. For project 1 submissions, use “561proj1” instead of “561hw1”; use “561proj2” for project 2 submission.

For more information on “submit”, type “man submit” on mercury.

2. What platform should I ensure my code works?

UNIX is the platform we will compile your code with GNU C compiler. In most cases, programs that compile on Linux also compile on UNIX. But it’s your responsibility to ensure that your code compiles on UNIX.

3. How do I organize my files for submission?

You may organize your files in anyway you want. But do include a README file. Before you submit your files, create a directory and name it after your last name, put all your files you want to submit in that directory (nothing else), and then submit the directory.
