#EXPANDRIVE NCSU HOW TO#

There’s a little guide linked from the course home page explaining how to use diff and how to read its output. If diff sees any differences, even in spacing or line termination, it will tell you where they are. As described below, you can capture your program’s output in a file and then use the diff command to compare the output you got with the output we were expecting you to get.

The project 1 starter includes some input files and expected output files to help you make sure your programs are behaving correctly. This includes producing the right output with the right spacing and line termination. In general, when we grade your programs, we expect them to behave exactly as described in the assignment. The following commands should do the job: Then, you can download and unpack the starter right in that directory. Make a directory where you’d like to work on the project, and cd to that directory. Or, if you’re already logged in on a common platform system, you can download the starter using curl instead of a web browser. Log in on a common platform machine, change directories to the path where you plan to work and then unpack the archive using a command like the following: For work on this project, I’d suggest making a directory for CSC 230 projects, then make a subdirectory under it for project 1. Then use an sftp client or a tool like ExpanDrive to copy the archive to a location in your AFS space where you want to work on this assignment. If you’d like, you can download the starter using a web browser on your local system, using the link above. There are a couple of ways you can do this. You’ll need to unpack the files inside to get started. This file is a compressed tar archive containing several files you’ll need. There is a starter file for this project, starter1.t g z.
