Break 2

Week 12

  • The End of Course Experience (EoCE) is upon us!

Week 11

  • udr2 will be officially unveiled this week.

Week 10

  • I extended udr1 another week (you're welcome)
  • udr2, the next project, has been released, and won't be due for 2 weeks (so more bonus point opportunities).

Week 9

  • The fun continues in udr1, perhaps connecting the theme of binary data with something you've had some experience interacting with.
  • I believe this is the last week to drop a class with a 'W'. If such thoughts are on your mind (not meant to refer to this class, just in general), you'll likely want to spring into action soon.
  • Registration for the Spring 2017 semester begins this week.
  • We may commence on Regular Expressions this week.

Week 8

  • Hope everyone enjoyed their break, and got in some extra tinkering on the web page adventure!
  • Your next project, udr0 is set to revisit the eternal fun of the puzzle boxes, in a new and exciting way.

Week 7

  • Knowledge assessment will probably be Monday.
  • Scripting fun continues.

Week 6

  • I am thinking of having a knowledge assessment at some point next week (week of 10/01-10/07), where you'll pit your skills on some task (puzzle box? if it helps you get excited about it, sure).
  • vi!
  • scripting
  • web pages

Week 5

  • command aliases
  • dot-login files
  • history (time travel)
    • reverse history search
  • plus a couple nice shortcuts to enhance our productive laziness
  • we need to learn vi as well; expect that at some point
  • project for the week has us rehashing some familiar concepts: file permissions! usr0 will give you some added focus in that area.

Week 4

  • Hopefully the puzzle box has been serving you well; a few of you have already finished and submitted it.
  • We continue this week with our shell explorations, likely getting to wildcards, command-expansions, more variables, and perhaps even some scripting logic.
  • The next project is the next best project for the best class you've ever taken: another puzzle box!

Week 3

  • We're now reaching a point where we can enjoy more and more of the thought-provoking gifts the class can offer. To reward you, one of the more acclaimed projects is on the docket for this week– THE PUZZLE BOX
    • The puzzle box is only as challenging as you make it. That said, it has been QUITE challenging for some people. Others have it solved and submitted in mere minutes.
      • The key is OBSERVATION. The less observant you are, the more challenging this project becomes.
  • We finished our file system exploration, took a look at manual pages, and began looking more at I/O manipulation. We'll be continuing that, along with exploring file permissions and some other shell bits.

Week 2

  • After getting through the introductory motions, we're starting on actually getting on the system, learning some commands, and better understanding our environment.
    • navigating our home directories
    • navigating the filesystem
      • getting a feel for its overall organization, categorization of data
    • listing directories
    • file ownership, permissions
    • the overall theme will be file navigation and manipulation

Week 1

  • Welcome! I've wrapped all the initial activities into one project, uxi0, that I'd like you to perform by the given deadline (by 11:59:59pm / 23:59:59).
  • On Lab46, we'll be getting familiar with logging into the pod systems, and once there:
    • opening up a terminal
    • logging that terminal onto Lab46 for class work and in-class attendance
  • Get familiar with how to log onto Lab46, and once on:
    • change your password to something more preferable
    • start working on the labs and other class activities
    • start exploring
  • Be sure to do the reading (located in the individual labs below)! There may be many pages, but there are many concepts to encounter.
  • The following labs are now available for you to work through:
