Lab 1: Getting started in C++

1. Programming Languages: example of Pascal, C, C++, Java application and Java applet.
2. Recap: Unix and DOS commands (directories, permissions; mkdir, cd, ls, chmod)
3. How to compile a C++ program. How to save a copy of part of a computer Unix session using script.
4. Getting started with the Unix X-system and C++: Lab 1 (from Dominique's Fall'99 class). Name the files for the two exercises ex1.cpp and ex2.cpp.
5. When you are done with each exercise, use script to save a copy of the execution (it is automatically saved in a file named typescript in the current directory). Rename each typescript, as type1, resp. type2
6. When done, submit the program and the typescript by typing:
   submit Lab1 filename
   where filename is the file you submit (e.g. ex1.cpp or type1).
