Preliminaries

News / Notes / Etc.

• We have a substitute today. I anticipate that we will continue to have substitutes for the near future.
• I returned half of SoLA 3 last night. I anticipate returning the other half relatively soon.
• Two important notes on SoLAs:
  • It’s okay if you’re missing LAs. Most people miss multiple LAs the first time they try them. They recover in the end. It takes practice to identify meaningful code and write about it.
  • It’s free to redo LAs. That is, I don’t charge tokens. That’s intentional.

Questions

Administrative

It looks like mini-project 7 is assigned before fall break and due after fall break. That makes it look like you want us to do work over fall break. Do we really have to?

The intention was that you would mostly do mini-project 7 after you got back from fall break. However, I understand that the model adds a bit of a burden. So I’ll drop MP7 and renumber.

Lab

The person closer to the board is Driver A. The person further from the board is Driver B.

Make sure that the name of the repo ends with -maven.
