CS 456 Midterm Notes
March 7, 2024 6-8PM

- On February 29, I demonstrated in lecture how you would add more built-in
  commands into the shell itself. For the midterm, you will be adding one (or 
  more, depending on the time) shell builtin to your shell

  - The shell I worked on in class is in the in-class code in the shellv3 
    folder. You can copy this code to your own class account by running this 
    command.

    	>  cp -r ~jcompton5/456code/shellv3 .

  
- You may either be adapting existing code I give you, or you may be asked to
  write some code yourself.

  	- In the latter scenario, the function you will be implementing will be 
  	  something you should already have seen before either here, or in another
  	  CS course.

- This test is open book, open note, open internet, but NOT open other people. 
  However, the standard policy regarding plagirism still applies: if you do use 
  code off the internet you need to cite it.

- In the lab session on Mar 6, I'll talk more about the midterm.

- On the date of the exam, the test will be available at 6PM and it will be due 
  at 8 PM
