Treasure Hunt!

The credit part of this part of the homework (0A) is to answer the questions listed below. You can find all of the information by following links from the CSE 142 course web. Find the answers, and then send them by e-mail to your TA. Send a single message which includes all the original questions, plus your answers (hint: it is not necessary to retype the questions! Make the computer do the work). Your e-mail message should include your full name, student ID #, quiz section ID, and your correct e-mail address (points off if you forget any of these, on this or any other work turned in!)

Do not mail until after you have attended your first quiz section on Thursday. This is because both teacher and student assignments to particular sections will not be final until then.

There are only a small number of points for the assignment.
The grade is based both on form (following instructions precisely, etc.) and
on content (the actual answers).

Deadline: mail must be received after your quiz section on Thursday the 28th, and before 3:30 pm, Friday, September 29th.

10. The answer to #10 will be sent via e-mail to the class mailing list just before this part of the assignment is due. Be patient, and keep watching the list. We're not saying when the message will appear - don't write to the course staff asking when the message will be sent. When it does appear, it will be very obvious. By the way, if you do miss a message, there is a way to see what it was (that's worth knowing how to do!)
