CS 117 Labs, Winter 2001

January 5, 2001

Each of these programs contains instructions for you. To get started, click on the name of the first program (hello.cpp), copy and paste the program into a gEdit window, and save the resulting file as hello.cpp in your own account. Then read the instructions at the top of hello.cpp and do what they tell you to do. Repeat for the rest of the files listed below.

As you work through these exercises, write down questions that come to you. Cross off those questions that are answered by your reading of Chapters 1 and 2 of your textbook. Then e-mail your remaining questions to me (jondich@carleton.edu) by Monday morning, Jan 8.

You are responsible for the material contained in these lab exercises. If there are questions you can't answer, ask me. If there are questions you want to explore further, do so.

Have fun.

This process of "get the file and follow the instructions and try to answer the questions" is how we will do things on the three or four occasions we have class in lab. I usually try to have plenty of stuff for everyone to do during a 70 minute period, so you may not be able to get through everything during class. If you haven't finished all the lab exercises, come back and finish them up later. The material in these labs is important, so the exercises will stay accessible on the Web all term.
