Windows users, install Git. We won't be using Git this semester, but the Windows Git installer includes a complete Bash environment identical to that provided by default under OS X and Linux. This way, everyone will have the same Bash prompt. These instructions use that interface.
Create and test your project on your computer in a directory called progN
, where N
is the project number.
When complete, navigate your Bash prompt to the directory that contains progN
and copy it to classes
with the following command.
scp -r progN cs4356xxx@classes.csc.lsu.edu:progN
Where xxx
is your account number.
Log on to classes.csc.lsu.edu
.
ssh cs4356xxx@classes.csc.lsu.edu
After entering your login and password, you are given a Bash prompt running remotely on classes
. It looks and behaves identical to the Bash prompt running on your computer, but remember: it's running on a machine in the computer science department.
Your code was copied here by the scp
command in step 2. You may examine it and even modify if you wish. To submit your finished code, use the command:
~cs4356_koo/bin/p_copy N
Here, ~cs4356_koo
is your instructor's grading account name.
You can use p_copy
again later if you need to make corrections. It will overwrite the original homework submission including the time stamp. Note that this could cause your work to be considered late if you resubmit after the assignment’s deadline.
Use the command
~cs4356_koo/bin/verify N
to view the list of files you have submitted and their timestamps. This verifies that your homework was properly submitted for grading.
Type exit
to close the Bash prompt.
