Past Announcements
| Date | Category | Announcement |
|---|---|---|
| 8/22 | Admin | You will need a CS61B Unix account to hand in your work and receive grades, among other things. You can get one by clicking here. |
| 8/22 | Lectures | Lectures are screencast (with audio) and all slides are online. Attendance is not mandatory. In fact, we do not all fit into Wheeler, so I recommend that those of you who are so inclined stay home and watch them. Experience indicates that after the initial week or so, there will be plenty of space in lecture for those who prefer live attendance. |
| 9/15 | Projects | The git-bug command (available on the instructional machines and in cs61b-software) will send us a useful bug report including all your code and a message about what problem you are having with it. It requires that you commit and push your work (as you should be doing anyway) and that you provide a text file containing a description of the problem you are seeing. Please use this instead of screenshots, emails of code snippets, etc., which are almost never sufficient for debugging purposes. See also the Piazza post linked to from this announcement. |
| 8/22 | Admin | The website is currently under construction so do not fret if there are a few broken links here are there. |
