General Information

Homework Handin Procedure

All homework must be submitted via handin from your CS account. Specific handin information is provided with each homework assignment. However, the general process is given below:

  1. If necessary, transfer all homework files to your CS account (see 'Resources').
  2. Login to your CS account.
  3. Compress all required homework files.
  4. Use handin to submit compressed homework files.

To compress your homework files, use the command:

tar czvf homework<#>.tar.gz <file_list>

To handin your homework files, use the command:

handin cs150 hw<#> homework<#>.tar.gz

To check what files you have already submitted, use the command:

handin cs150 hw<#>

where <#> is the homework number, and <file_list> is the space-delimited list of files you are compressing. Below is an example of this process:
