Send anonymous feedback.
HW 3: Raytracer. When submitting the file, if you are working in pairs, you only need submit the hw3.zip file for one person. In the submission page, enter the userid of the other person in the group.
HW 1: Square using OpenGL. If you are having problems getting the libraries working under Visual Studio, look here. Submission details: first you need to reset your password. Your password will be e-mailed to your account. Your userid is the first part of your e-mail address (i.e., mst3k). You can then change your password to something easier to remember. Finally, you can submit the file here. You will have to fill out the survey. And the file must be called hw1.zip.
The following is a tentative schedule about what I plan to cover and when. Obviously, this is subject to change.
