Homework Submission Guidelines

The submission for each homework should include the following files:

1. A (plain ascii) README file including:

· your name;

· a list and description of all files you are submitting;

· a full description of your program and how to run it, including any innovations or clever features we might otherwise not appreciate

· all files needed to run your program including source and any data files

2. To submit your homework:

• Create a submit directory.
• Copy the source code files into the submit directory and include all the other files that are necessary for your program to run.
• cd into the submit directory.
• Mail your files to amaxwell@cs.columbia.edu using the command:

$ tar cvf - . | compress | uuencode temp_file | Mail -s "submit cs4705 hwN" amaxwell@cs.columbia.edu

          where N is the homework number (e.g. for Homework 2 this would be "hw2")

After a short time you will get an automatic acknowledgement of your submission. Please note:

• If you do not get an answer after a few minutes, then your program did not go through. Please resubmit
• If you do not get back a listing of ALL your files (please check the file sizes to ensure that everything arrived without any problems) then resubmit!

If you submit once, and then decide to submit again, your second submission will overwrite the first. All the files from your first submission will automatically be wiped out.
