CSC 209: Assignments

Assignment Schedule

Announcements, clarifications, corrections and revisions to assigment specifications are posted to the Announcements page. Please read this page regularly.

Assignment 4: online blackjack casino

• Specification [updated Jul 31]
• Update Jul 31: fixed a few typos and clarified the games rules and server command line parameters.

Assignment 3: Blackjack

• Specification [updated Jul 23]
• Utility code: utils.h and utils.c [updated Jul 15 22:57]
• Be sure to add the utils.[ch] files to your CVS repository (and link utils.o to your programs in your Makfile) if you choose to use this code. You are also welcome to modify this code, if you wish.
• Sample bjplayer and bjdealer executables are available in the /u/csc209h/summer/pub/a3 directory on CDF. If you want them accessible from your own directory, use a symbolic link instead of copying them (thus, when I correct any bugs, your "copy" will automatically be fixed). Something like ln -s /u/csc209h/summer/pub/a3/bjdealer sample.bjplayer will link it in the current directory under whatever name you want (so its name doesn't conflict with your programs).
• Code for sample programs: dealer.c and player.c

Assignment 2 - memlayout, mycut and organizer

• Specification (all parts posted)
• Due date extended through the long weekend.
• Starter Makefile
• Sample C file from tutorial - printdirs.c
• Clarification: You are not to use system() or exec for this assignment (we'll learn all about these goodies later in the course). And no, you are not allowed to use the cut program for this assignment.
• Some frequently answered questions and hints. Remember to check the newsgroup for more hints!

Assignment 1 - fs and vcardtoabook

• Specification
• Sample solutions: fs and vcardtoabook

Assignment submission details

All assignments will be submitted via checking in files to the CVS repository. Details of how to set up a working directory from your CVS repository (either on the CDF system or remotely) were posted to the Announcements page. A tutorial for using CVS (and solving common problems you may encounter) is posted to the Online Tutorials page.

Assignment submissions will be automatically extracted from CVS as of the due time. Be sure to have your solution committed before the due time! If you require use of your grace days, be sure to submit the grace day request before the due date, otherwise whatever you have submitted by the due time might be marked. Since your assignment will be extracted automatically, we will not notice late assignment submissions!
