Reminder: for each class session and associated homework:
- Where you do your work:
In Eclipse in the project that you checked out for that session.
- How you turn in your work:
You commit that project, as follows:
- Right-click on the project name in the Pydev Package Explorer view.
- Select Team → Commit
- In the message box that appears, put a message to yourself if you wish (eventually,
these messages will be for your teammates) and press OK.
Commit OFTEN, not just when you finish the homework. Doing so provides easy backups of your work.
- How you can keep track of what you have completed:
- As you finish each TODO,
change the word TODO to DONE.
- When you finish ALL your work in a project, right-click on the project name
and Rename the project by adding Done
to the beginning or to the end of the project name.
- Keep the rest of the project name unchanged, to keep things simple.
- You choose whether to place Done at the beginning or end of the project name,
depending on how you like the projects sorted.
- The exact phrase Done is not important; any phrase that helps you remember that you have done the project is fine.
- If you have questions:
Email csse120-staff@rose-hulman.edu.
- Best place and time to do the homework:
CSSE lab (Moench Hall, room F-217)
7 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Sunday — Thursday.
