Lab 1 - Using Helios and Basic Compilation
Attendance is required to get credit for this lab. This lab will be a mix
of lecture and demonstrations.
Part 1: Using Helios
If you did not attend CMPS 150, see me for your account information sheet,
which has your username and password. If you did attend CMPS 150, be sure to
remember (or bring) your username and password to the lab.
This section of the lab will review pertinant concepts from 150/215 about
how to log into Helios, manipulate files and send emails. I'll also show you
how to secure your files so that other students cannot read them.
Part 2: Basic Compilation
For this section of the lab, I'll describe what is involved in compiling a
program (from Chapter 1 of the book) to create a sequence of instructions
that the computer can execute. Then I will show you how to use the g++
compiler on Helios to compile a simple "Hello world" program.
