Trying the transfer and a little acceleration

Transfer via ssh

See if you can connect to instructor’s computer.
    ssh burningtown
Let&squo;s look a the first part of SSH/OpenSSH/Keys. Look at your .ssh directory for keys.

See if you can login without a password. Trying appending your public key, id_rsa.pub, to your list of authorized keys, authorized_keys.

Also, try to view the SSL certificates for you browser. You may need to Google for this.

Transfer to the cloud

Follow the instructions in the Transferring files to Linux instances tutorial. Even if your person computer is a Windows of Mac, your Google instance is running Linux. It should work for just about everything.

An accelerating experience with Pi

Try logging into one of the three Pi’s with a Sense HAT. The login account is csci178. The password is still a secret. I suggest first using ssh-copy-id to authorize your login and then using ssh to connect without a password.

Yet another computer language

Your assignment is to learn a little Python. Either try out chapters 2, 3, and 9 of Python for Kids, available on-line from UNC Asheville library or Getting Started with the Sense Hat (also for kids and you will have to play well others because there are only three Sense Hats) or the on-line Sense HAT simulator at trinket.io.
