Nearly all the seats for mondays class are now filled.
Thank everyone for participating in our first NYLXS program. A number of items should be noted prior to coming to class. First, have a pictue ID to enter the building at 845 3rd Ave. The office is Rosensweig and Maffia on the 13th Floor, in their conference room. Class itself is not normally centered on the computer. Instead, you are given accounts on the NYLXS server for homework. All homework is to be done in Unix, preferably on the server.
Class time itself is spent teaching, not practicing. A mailing list is made for extenssive discussion of programming and course work. One day a week we will probibly meet on IRC to digitally discuss and review questions and techniques.
If you have a laptop, I encourage you to bring it to class. Generaly, only a couple of spare machines might be available at the lectures. The notes for the class are on-line. The url will be announced in the class.
Online access is needed for this class. If you have trouble getting on line, email me so we can help you. The class is designed for beginers. We assume you know nothing about Unix or Perl. The book used for this class is "Programming Perl" by Tom Christiansen et al. It is known as the Camel Book. IT IS A CAMEL, not a LLAMA. A LLAMA book can not help you with this class, and it can confuse you. It is also not a Cheatah, Leopard, Eagle, Mouse, or Rhino, all of which represent good books, but not the one we need.
Any questions, email me.
Ruben
