How to submit a homework
When you are finally done with your program/file, and are ready to submit it, do the following steps.
  1. script hmwk1.log
    This command starts recording all the things you type and the responses from the system. "hmwk1.log" is just the name of the file it creates. You will need this file if there is a problem submitting the homework.
  2. ls -l filename.mag
    Where filename.mag are the names of the files to submit. You can do this multiple times, or use a wildcard to specify all the files you will submit.
  3. $HOME/../TA's_Account/submit filename.mag hmwk1/Your_Account
    -OR-
    /export/class/TA's_Account/submit filename.mag hmwk1/Your_Account
    Where you replace Your_Account with the account name you were given for this class. This calls the "submit" program which is located in the TA's_Account (not literally; the TA's account will be given in class). It copies the file filename.mag to the TA's file space, under the subdirectory "hmwk1/Your_Account". Once you submit a homework, you can re-submit it, but be careful not to do so after the due date and time. Read the submit program's response to make sure it was submitted properly. Repeat this command for each file.
  4. exit
    This command ends the recording of the things you type/system responses. You can now view "hmwk1.log"
  5. Turn in a hardcopy of your "hmwk1.log" file in class on the due date.
    A late penalty will apply to anyone who is late turning in the hardcopy OR submitting the homeworks electronically. Homeworks will NOT be accepted via e-mail.

    For group assignments, be sure to indicate who your partners are. Only turn in one copy of the log file, or staple multiple copies together. For example, if you submitted all the files for your group, then you would turn in 1 log file with everyone's name on it. If you submit half of the homework, and your partner submits the other files, then staple your log files together. If you do the work, but your partner fails to turn it in, YOU will also be held responsible!
