Announcements

You may jump to any of these months: May, June, July, or August.

August

07 August (Thursday)
9:00a.m. Exam in Life Sciences Centre, room 242

July

29 July (Tuesday)
See your e-mail for a message clarifying the clientCanSendMorePkt() function and discussing the waiving of the late penalty for assignment #4. The waiving of the late penalty is not exactly the same as an extension.
28 July (Monday)
An improved version of checksum.c is available for those who want to use it in assignment #4. The previous version had a potentially serious bug.
Assignment #4 has been updated:
  1. The error message about the unused terminate label has been eliminated,
  2. The frequently asked questions list (FAQ) for assignment #4 has been updated to reflect the new compile status,
  3. Several error and tracing messages were added last week (as I announced in class), and
  4. An undocumented function, that you were told not to use anyway, has been removed from the KRnet.c file.
Remember that the assignment #4 FAQ is updated often (but updates are not usually announced here).
25 July (Friday)
For Assignment #4: the final division must be done by hand because no single file has access to all of the values. You may print the values to standard output but the program cannot do the division. Out the results of a typical run in a comment at the top of your client.c file. The submission instructions have been updated to include this detail.
