Quiz 1 for section 1 of CSCI 173

Getting ready

Log into one of the Computer Science computers and type the following commands exactly as they appear here:

• mkdir -p ~/csci/173
• cd ~/csci/173
• chmod go-rwx .
• cp ~brock/173/no.fun .

Note that the last two commands end with a space followed by a period

These commands create a protected directory csci/173 that can be accessed only by you and copy a file no.fun into that directory. Do all your work in this directory!
