README.md

If you use more than 3 lines of code from the internet, cite them in a comment. It's cause for an 'f' otherwise!!!!

THIS IS OUT OF 20 POINTS!!!! No one can get more than 20 points.

If you work in pairs, then I'll give each person 2/3 of the total points. So if a team gets 30 (and each person gets 15), I'll give each student 20.

If you work in threes, then I'll give each person 1/2 of the total points. So if a team gets 40 (and each person gets 13.3333), I'll give each student 20.

Some cases to consider

  • A person tries to run a non-executable.
  • A person tries to read or write to a non-existent file.
  • A person tries to read or write to a file they do not have permissions on.
  • A person tries a non-sensical command. (i.e. ls > foo > fee < doo < dee)
  • A person tries to pipe to a non-command (i.e. ls | /tmp/foo.txt)
  • A person tries to pipe from a non-command (i.e. /tmp/foo | ls)
  • A person tries to expand a non-variable (i.e. ls $DOES_NOT_EXIST)
  • A regular expression matches no files.
  • A regular expression matches one file.
  • A regular expression matches lots of files.
  • A person tries to change directory to something that does not exist.

These programs are due Friday before finals week. It will take a totally excellent excuse to move this at all.
