CS 4773 Object Oriented Programming, Spring 1997
Assignment 1

Due Tuesday, January 21


Assignment 1 has 5 parts.


Part 1:
If you have not already done so, make a directory in you home directory called public_html. The permissions on this directory should be drwxr-xr-x.

Create a world-readable file in this directory called cs4773.html. You can use the file with the same name in /usr/local/courses/cs4773/spring97 as a model. Just change the appropriate lines. There are two places where my name should be changed to yours and one place where my username should be changed to yours. You may add additional information to this file, but it should be uncluttered and load quickly (no graphics).

Part 2:
Create a sundirectory under public_html called cs4773_programs and copy the files /usr/local/courses/cs4773/spring97/java_test.* into that directory.

Start netscape and access the URL
http://www.cs.utsa.edu/~yourlogin/cs4773.html
This should access your homepage for this course.

Click on the each of the links and make sure they work. The link to assignment 1 should run a java program. If some of these links do not work, get help from a classmate or see me.

Part 3:
Make sure that you have had your ID scanned. If it was not done after the first class, come to my office.

Part 4:
Subscribe to the newsgroups utsa.cs.4773 and utsa.cs.4773.d. You should check these newsgroups at least once a week. Read all of the articles in these newsgroups.

Part 5:
When you have completed the other parts of the assignment, send me email at srobbins@cs.utsa.edu informing me that you have completed all parts of Assignment 1. The mail message must have a subject line which includes the course number. If you are not prompted for a subject line when you send mail, insert an alias in your .cshrc as follows:
alias mail mailx,
source your .cshrc and try again.
