   course website:
   http://www.cdf.toronto.edu/~csc108h/winter

   CDF computer network.  You will use this account when working 
   in the labs and when submitting assignments.  

   Look up your CDF username:

3. This course has an electronic bulletin board, which is used to ask
   course-related questions.  The bulletin board will be monitored by your
   instructor and a TA.  Students are also welcome to answer questions.
   Here is the link:

    You must login. Use your cdf account and student number as password.

4. The first pre-lab is due on Monday, January 15th by 9am.  The pre-labs
   are done using an online tool called CodeLab.  Register and pay for
   CodeLab, then do the first pre-lab!

5. If you plan on working on your assignments on your home computer, then
   you will need to install Java and DrJava (they are both free!).  Of
