CS21 Week3 Thursday In-Class Exercises

1. If you have not already done so, create a week3 subdirectory in your cs21 subdirectory, and from your week3 subdirectory, copy over my week3 files:

   % cd                # remember you can use ls and pwd to figure out where you are in the directory tree
   % cd cs21
   % mkdir week3
   % cd week3
   % pwd                # should list /home/yourusername/cs21/week3
   % cp ~newhall/public/cs21/week3/* .
