Create a week08 subdirectory in your cs21/class directory:
% cd
% cd cs21/class
% pwd
/home/your_user_name/cs21/class
% mkdir week08
Then, from within your week08 subdirectory copy over some python files
from my public directory:
% cd week08
% pwd
/home/your_user_name/cs21/class/week08
% cp ~newhall/public/cs21/week08/* .
% ls
