Today I went to talk with David Woollard, who is working on his Ph.D here at the University of Southern California. The meeting went a bit long, so I was a little late to my next class: tennis. When I got there, I met Amber, the lady who was letting everyone know that the class was cancelled.

My roommate had his Assignment #1 for CompSci 101 (I skipped ahead to 102, in which we use C++). He asked about how to test it, so I decided to help. I considered various options for compilers. Microsoft Visual Studio, Borland, GCC? Finally I decided that the method most likely used by students at the University of Southern California is to use X-Win32 6.1.2 to connect to the Aludra student webserver, and use the gcc compiler there. So I fired up XWin (took a minute to find it) and opened emacs. Luckily, it allowed me to simply copy-and-paste his code into the emacs editor window. I simply called the file “a.c”, saved it, and compiled it with gcc.
