7 Getting Help
- For information on the IRC protocol, read the revised RFC. RFCs are written
in a style that you may find unfamiliar. However, it is wise for
you to become familiar with it, as it is similar to the styles
of many standards organizations. We don't expect you to read
every page of the RFC, but you may well need to re-read critical
sections a few times for the meaning to sink in.
- For information on socket programming, the following may be
helpful:
- Talk to your classmates. While you need to write your own
original program, we expect conversation with other people
facing the same challenges to be very useful.
- Post to the main class bulletin board (academic.cs.15-441) if
appropriate. This is probably best for detailed questions the
answers to which could help many other students. Questions of
the form ``I do not understand this project.'' are not likely to
get you much help.
- For clarifications on this assignment, post to the main class
bulletin board (academic.cs.15-441). But do not expect an
immediate reply, especially at odd hours.
- Read the class bulletin boards. This is really very important.
- Come to office hours.
