Note that the budgeted amount of time for this midterm is one week. I am making it due at the end of spring break to provide some flexibility. It is not meant to coerce people to work during the break.

This midterm must be done individually. Clarification questions (e.g., "is this a typo?") can be posted to the mail list, but questions regarding how to proceed should be directed to the instructor.
(The main difference between "exams" and assignments in this class is the degree of collaboration that is acceptable.).
You need to hand in a PDF for this assignment. There is no programming involved.
Late policy: Once the grader has finished the grading, assignments will no longer be graded. Note that the system for handing in assignments allows you to update your assignment. However, if you do this after the grader has graded yours, they will not notice.

To hand in the above, use the turnin program available on lectura (turnin key is ista410_m1).
For those not familiar with turnin:
To hand in files using turnin you need to sign onto machine lectura, and make sure that the files you want to hand in are in a directory that lectura sees, and then change to that directory. Note that your home directory on the graphics machines and lectura is the same, so if you have just tested your program on a graphics machine, you have probably done all the file transferring that you need to do. To hand in file XXX, you would do the following:
turnin ista410_mt1 XXXTo hand in multiple files, you can have additional files after the XXX, or do this multiple times. For a different assignment, you will need to use a different key.
For more detailed instructions, use:
man turninon lectura.
