CS 101  LABORATORY 0

Introduction to the CS 101 Laboratory in OLS 001

To be completed in your first lab session on August 30/31, 2001

Objective       

This lab will get you started with the machines and the tools that we will be using this semester.

0.1 Introduction

Welcome to the CS 101 Laboratory!  Throughout the semester, this laboratory will give you the experience necessary to fully master the concepts introduced during the lecture.  If you ever have any questions, raise your hand to flag down a laboratory instructor.

0.2 Format of Laboratories

There should always be a handout when you come to labs, which will be a check-off sheet for the day's experiments.  This sheet enables the laboratory instructors to track your progress during that lab.  Each time you reach a check-off symbol, 4 (other than this one) you should call a laboratory instructor over to examine your work for correctness, and to check-off your completion of the lab to that point.  Do not check off the item yourself, as you will have to turn this sheet in at the end of the lab.  The sheet serves as our official record of your attendance and progress in the CS 101 laboratory.

You will always need to "logon" to the machine, which means to start it up and get it running with the proper settings for performing the lab activities.

How to "logon":

0.3 Using Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional

0.4 Using the Internet

The Internet is the so-called "information superhighway."  It's millions of computers that are loosely connected.  Any computer is capable of talking to any other computer on the Internet.  The files you will be using for today's lab are available on a machine located elsewhere at the University.
