  1. (5 points) Send me (wahls@psu.edu) an email message from your Unix account. In this message, tell me the full (absolute) path from the root of the file system to your home directory. I will email a response with your score when I receive your email.

    Hint: the pwd command will be useful in determining the path mentioned above.

  2. (5 points) Copy or ftp the file someout.c from the pub subdirectory of my home directory. (Recall that my user id is taw2.) This file contains a short C program. Compile this program and run it to see what output it produces. Next, redirect the output of this program into a text file as follows (assuming that the executable is in a.out and you wish the output to be in out.txt):
    a.out > out.txt
    If you aren't satisfied with doing this just once, you will have to delete the file out.txt before trying again. Finally, email this output file to me. I will email a response with your score when I receive your email.
