NOTE: Absolutely no classroom time will be spent on file management. Questions about file transfer methodologies may be addressed to the instructor during office hours, NOT during classroom time.

NOTE: Remember to BACKUP your data files. Disks and drives seem to fail at the worst possible moments, so you should always have a backup of your data files with you during the days you will be working in the computer room. A failed disk and no backups will result in your being asked to leave the classroom for the day, and you will receive an unexcused absence for that class period.

ALWAYS BACKUP YOUR FILES !!!!!!!

Several of the homework problems are dependant on previous coursework and failing to backup your files may result in many hours doing prior homework over again.
