BIOE 131/231 Electronic Homework Submission Instructions

First of all, please note that if your files you want to submit are not on a DECF be131-XX account you received during the first week, you will have to email your files to the GSI, since the submission script currently cannot handle transferring of files outside of the be131-XX set of accounts.

Login to a DECF machine, then at the terminal prompt, type:

$ pwd
/home5/be131-XX (<-- this is what pwd should return, where XX is the number you were given)

Assuming your files are on a proper class account, you first need to create a directory containing only the files you want to submit for the assignment. For example:

$ mkdir week2
$ mv <filename> week2/ (do this for every file you need to turn in)
$ cd week2

Once you have moved the files to the directory and changed into that directory, you can execute the submission script:

$ ~be131/submit.pl

The script will prompt you for various pieces of information and if it successfully submits the files, will give you a success message at the end. If you're not assured that submission was successful, email me and I'll check to make sure.

Please let me know if you encounter problems.
