| - | * if I missed anything (especially notes project entries you might have done for bonus), shoot me an e-mail and let me know the date(s), so I can record them appropriately. | ||
| - | * as I had to update week 12 opus entries due to my "week after break" bug, everyone had plenty of time to get their opus entries up to date. At this point I am considering the window for updating past opus entries for credit to be **closed**. Note that you still have one Opus entry remaining, for week 13 (due before it is Tuesday). | ||

| - | | + | * The big problem with **udr0** was that people didn't know where to start. Very few (ie 2) actually took my advice and asked questions: I designed this assignment to force you to ask questions. Instead, all I got was a lot of panic that people didn't know where to start. So if you hadn't asked me questions, you were effectively making the project far more difficult. |
| - | | + | * I identified 2 typos (they actually didn't seem to stop a fair number of people), and have issued corrections and a memdump file update. Check the assignments page for details. |

There are manual pages that can be referenced for many STDIO C functions (including **fputc**), and I would highly recommend perusing some of them to get a better handle on what is going on. | ||
