You have an account on one of the Unix machines on campus and you should use it for all assignments. Any assignment that fails to run on the Unix machines automatically gets a zero. You can communicate with all the students in the class using the email alias cs273@aryabhat.umsl.edu. Any message sent to this alias will automatically go to all the students in the class.
