Purpose of this Assignment ========================== > Do not print this assignment on paper. On paper, you cannot follow any of > the hyperlink URLs that lead you to hints and course notes relevant to > answering a question. 1. Learn from your mistakes on [Midterm Test #2 PDF]. 2. Submit a plain text `assignment10.txt` answer file via Blackboard. - This is a **BONUS** assignment for extra credit. - This assignment requires the two numbered **Prerequisites** mentioned above. Introduction and Overview ========================= 1. Make sure you have all the numbered **Prerequisites** (above) before you begin. 2. Create a new plain text answer file named `assignment10.txt` (on Windows or on Linux -- you choose, but I suggest you choose `vim`). For every question that you answered incorrectly on Midterm Test #2, reproduce in the answer file (1) the question you got wrong (from your own question sheet) and (2) the correct answer to the question. (If you had no incorrect answers, upload an empty answer file. If you missed the test, you have to copy the entire test and answer every question.) 3. Underneath each question and correct answer in your answer file, indicate where in the [Class Notes][All Weeks] (which section of which [Class Notes][All Weeks] file) you can learn how to generate this correct answer. *No marks are awarded unless your source for getting the answer is shown. Show me that you know where in the notes the answer comes from.* For example: Q5. How do you recursively remove a non-empty directory? Answer: rm -r Source: Worksheet 3 section 5 rm command Q9. What is a dangling symlink? Answer: a link to a nonexistent target Source: 460_symbolic_links.html section 6 Dangling Symlinks > You can copy-and-paste each question and the correct answer into your > answer file. You must do your own work finding where the correct answer > can be found. Marks are awarded for original typed work for the source, > not for copy-and-paste from your friends. Any source answers that are > found to be copy-and-paste from some other document will require you to > resubmit the entire lab as hand-written and will result in a charge of > plagiarism or academic fraud as well. Do your own research; type your > own answer locations; no copy-and-paste. In this assignment, you are only answering the questions that you got *wrong* on the midterm test, not all the questions. Just the ones you got wrong. 4. Submit your answer file using file name `assignment10.txt` (use the exact name) before the due date. Use the *exact* file name given above. Upload only one single file of plain text, not HTML, not MSWord. No fonts, no word-processing. Plain text only. Did I mention that the format is plain text (suitable for VIM/Nano/Pico/Gedit or Notepad)? **NO EMAIL, WORD PROCESSOR, PDF, RTF, or HTML DOCUMENTS ACCEPTED.** No marks are awarded for submitting under the wrong assignment number or for using the wrong file name. Use the exact name given above. WARNING: Some inattentive students don't read all these words. Don't make that mistake! Be exact. **READ ALL THE WORDS.
