-In the event only the starting value is specified, assume a count of 16 (so display 16 values, starting at the starting value). Note that for binary and octal, all numbers should be displayed in a block, so if an additional place value comes into the picture, leading zeros must be visible on the preceding values.+In the event only the starting value is specified, assume a count of 16 (so display 16 values, starting at the starting value).

 To be sure, I'll be checking to make sure you solution follows the spirit of what this project is about (that you implement functional, flowing logic utilizing the tools and concepts we've learned, in an application that helps demonstrate your comprehension). Don't try to weasel your way out of this or cut corners. This is an opportunity to further solidify your proficiency with everything. To be sure, I'll be checking to make sure you solution follows the spirit of what this project is about (that you implement functional, flowing logic utilizing the tools and concepts we've learned, in an application that helps demonstrate your comprehension).

-====Output Formatting with printf(1)====+=====Spirit of project===== 
 +The spirit of the project embodies many aspects we've been focusing on throughout the semester: 
 + 
 +  * recognizing patterns to employ effective solutions in problem solving 
 +  * utilizing concepts and tools covered 
 +  * demonstrating comprehension of concepts, tools, and problems 
 +  * employing concepts in knowledgeable and thoughtful manner 
 +  * following instructions 
 +  * implementing to specifications 
 +  * utilizing creativity 
 +  * being able to control solution via consistent, clear, and organized presentation 
 + 
 +Basically: I want your solution to be the result of an honest, genuine brainstorming process where you have (on your own) figured out a path to solving the problem, you have dabbled and experimented and figured things out, and you can command the concepts and tools with a fluency enabling you to pull off such a feat. Your solution should demonstrate the real learning that took place and experience gained. 
 + 
 +Cutting corners, avoiding work, skimping on functionality, cheating through getting others to do work for you or finding pre-packaged "answers" on the internet violates the spirit of the project, for they betray your ability to pull off the task on your own. 
 + 
 +=====Identifying shortcomings===== 
 +I would also like it if you provided an inventory of what functionality is lacking or out of spec when you submit the project. The better you can describe your deviations from stated requirements, the more forgiving I may be during evaluation (versus trying to hide the shortcomings and hoping I do not discover them). 
 + 
 +The more fluent you are in describing your shortcomings on accomplishing the project (ie "I didn't know how to do this" is far from fluent), the better I will be able to gauge your understanding on a particular aspect. 
 + 
 +This can be in the form of comments in your script, or even a separate file submitted at time of submission (if a file, be sure to make mention of it in your script so I can be sure to look for it). 
 +=====Output Formatting with printf(1)=====
  
 You might be wondering how you can full off some of these output formatting feats. The **echo** command, after all, is rather rudimentary. You might be wondering how you can full off some of these output formatting feats. The **echo** command, after all, is rather rudimentary.
Line 627: Line 649:
 There you will find a file by the name of **outputlist**, which contains a list of filenames (output0 - outputF) and the **pwn0.sh** script command-line used to generate the output found in those files. There you will find a file by the name of **outputlist**, which contains a list of filenames (output0 - outputF) and the **pwn0.sh** script command-line used to generate the output found in those files.
  
-Using these files, you can check the functionality of your script in a number of operating conditions, to verify that it is indeed working as it should be. While this isn't likely to cover the full spectrum of possibilities, it should offer up some assistance in helping your broaden your view of troubleshooting scenarios.+Using these files, you can check the functionality of your script in a number of operating conditions, to verify that it is indeed working as it should be.
