CS 252

An Introduction to Unix for Programmers

Prof. Steven Zeil

Welcome to CS 252.

The goal of this course is to provide students with enough Unix to allow them to work productively in CS courses at the 300 level and beyond. Particular emphasis is placed on Unix tools and procedures that support the kind of programming students will face in assignments in those later courses. Because relatively few people work directly from a Unix workstation console in a CS Dept lab, this course will emphasize connecting via the internet from a remote PC to our Unix systems.
