• Problem Sets:
  • Submit Plurality
  • Submit one of the following:
    • Runoff, if feeling less comfortable
    • Tideman, if feeling more comfortable

Advice

• Try out David’s programs from class via Unit 2’s examples
• If you see any errors when compiling your code with make, focus first on fixing the very first error you see, scrolling up as needed. If unsure what it means, try asking help50 for help. For instance, if trying to compile plurality, and

make plurality 

is yielding errors, try running

help50 make plurality

instead!
