Submission instructions for ITEC2620 programming assignments

Programming assignments for ITEC2620 must be submitted electronically.  If you do not submit your programming assignment properly, you will receive ZERO.

Please note: on-line submission will be disabled at the exact deadline.  Late assignments will receive ZERO.  If you are working till the last minute, submit what you have -- resubmitting will replace your previous submission.  We will only mark your last (on-time) submission.  Thus, submit early and often!

Instructions

  1. Transfer the source code of your program to your account at unix.aml.yorku.ca.

    If you are working from home or another computer, you will have to transfer your files to your AML directory (e.g. FTP to unix.aml.yorku.ca) 
  2. Use TELNET to login to unix.aml.yorku.ca.
  3. unix.aml.yorku.ca is a UNIX machine.  After telnetting in, you will be in your home directory.  You will have to then go to the directory where you source code resides, and you will have to copy it from your account to our marking account (see step 6).

    4.
  4. Test your program. Make sure that your program can compile and run on AML, which uses java version 1.3.

    5.     To run Java on AML, you must initialize the Java environment first
            source /javainit
        Then, compile and run your program
            javac ClassName.java
            java ClassName
  5. If your program runs, then it is ready for submission.  Please continue with these instructions.  Otherwise, you need to debug your program and restart from Instruction 1.
  6. To submit, you must be in the directory with your source code.
    7.

       type: submit 2620s a1 <filename>
       where <filename> is the file name to be submitted and a1 represents assignment 1 (For assignment 2, replace a1 by a2).

        For example, if you are submitting a file named DHeapImpl.java for assignment 1, then you would type
            submit 2620s a1 DHeapImpl.java

        You should see a response like the following:

      The file was successfully submitted. x bytes received
      Submission attempt is logged
  7. Check that your submission was successful.

    8.     type: showsub 2620s a1

        You should see a response like the following:
      DHeapImpl.java: x bytes, last changed: Day Mon dd hh:mm:ss year
      All files present.
Please be sure to do all the steps.  Failure to follow the submission procedures will result in a grade of ZERO for your assignment.
