Getting Started

Synopsis

  • Read the lab writeup on Instructure Canvas.
  • There are three parts to this lab. However, you are only making one source file. When you finish the lab, the final part will have the functionality to support all three parts of the assignment.
  • There are two different due dates for different parts of the assignment:
    • November 3, 2019 at 23:59:59 - BST.h (Covering Part 1) and Drawings for Part 2 and Part 3.
    • November 10, 2019 at 23:59:59 - BST.h (Covering Part 2 and Part 3)

Requirements

Side Files

Usually, for lab "lectures", I prepare a digital copy of my notes to write on the whiteboard. I have made these public:
Submission
We will be following a variation of these guidelines. I have posted the details on Piazza. However, for archival's sake...

Submission 1

The first submission requires a BST.h that supports Part 1, as well as drawings for the next two parts:
For 30 points, make simple drawings that illustrate how the following functions described below are meant
to work, namely, bst::iterator::operator++() which implements a single step for an inorder traversal, and
bst::lower_bound(key) and bst::upper_bound(key) which find nodes that bracket a search range for a given key,
i.e., lower_bound ≤ key < upper_bound. Add a few succinct sentences to explain each drawing. These drawings
are meant for you to think about functionality before you think about code. That is, you can't code what you
don't understand, and you don't understand what you can't explain. This makes you understand and explain.
Canvas lets us view document/image files without even having to download them, which speeds up grading drastically. As such, I have removed the "tar" file restriction for Part 1.

So here's the deal... for Submission 1, submit 2 files:
  • A TAR file containing BST.h
  • A document/image file containing your sketch. If you need more than one file for this, that's fine.
What formats do we take? Since it's a drawing, we'll take image formats such as JPG, PNG, GIF. Concerning document files, we'll take formats such as DOC/DOCX and PDF. In both cases, we don't care what the filename is, only the file extension. The only file with a strict name requirement is BST.h, inside a TAR, just like all normal code submissions.

If that wasn't clear, behold the following valid submission:
lab6_1.tar
drawings.pdf
Another valid submission:
lab6A.tar
sketch.jpg
Files that can't be open (either due to corruption or other various reasons) will be treated as an invalid submission, resulting in the 25 points for that portion being lost. Failure to open a TAR for code won't result in a 0, but it will result in a 15 point penalty.

Submission 2

This one is much easier. It's the usual.
