AN INTRO TO PROGRAMMING IN C++

•  Added Homework 2 (prog 1)!  See Homeworks and Programs below and click over to the web page.  It will tell you how to download the files.
• As for covering my absence, well, you've got an good first programming assignment, and I'd like you to work on that.  I've included some on-line information in the HW2 web page and also on this web page below.  In addition, Dr. Randy Appleton has graciously agreed to help you get started with Unix and C++ in the Mac lab (WS 152).  But he can only make it on THURSDAY!  Sept. 24. usual class time.  Since I don't have time to get anything else arranged, this means you guys have Wed., Fri., and Monday off.  I'll make it up to you later, you'll be glad to hear.  But do try to make it on Thursday.  Randy is an expert in these areas.  He can correct my mistakes on the handout, if any!  Just come prepared to work on HW2, (you'll have to download the five files of code, and also the input file of chromosomes, etc.).  I suggest you immediately compile and run the code;  it is runnable as is.  And do not hesitate to ask Randy about ANYTHING:  pico, copying files, making directories, running g++.  You'll probably have stuff to teach me when I get back!
• To get the six files to your account, do the following at the Unix command prompt:
• Create a new directory:     > mkdir  HW2
• Change to it:                     > cd HW2
• Copy files from mine:        >  cp ~jeffhorn/pub/CS222/Code/* .     (don't forget the "." there)
• List current directory:        > ls
• You should now see all five code files plus input.
• Now compile them:            >  g++ main.cc
• Now run it:                        >  a.out               (or)      >  ./a.out
• Now edit the appropriate code files (.h and .cc files) and then recompile!
• Good luck.  And don't worry, we have time after I get back to get this working.  Do not skip this assignment, as we will be building on it for later ones.

Binary Search

Homework 1

Homework 2 (Program 1, binary search for chromosomes)

Language: C++

Platform: UNIX (Linux) or Mac or Windows (UNIX TUTORIAL)

LINUX: Remember to use ".cc" for your file extensions, and use the "g++" compiler script.

MAC: Remember to use ".cpp" for your file extensions.

USING LINUX:  Start up Telnet on a Mac in WS 152, then open a connection to aki.nmu.edu or euclid.acs.nmu.edu.  Then login.

GETTING FILES TO YOUR ACCOUNT:

SAMPLE CODE: To try out your C++ development environment (Turbo C++, gcc, g++, or whatever), you can try compiling and running the these little programs: sphere.cc or shapes.cc. I believe that all you need for these to run is the "iostream.h" header file, which should be available to your development environment. Try it!
