CIE class,
Here are some instructions for the first homework.

(1) Sign up for one lab time outside of 2243 SC before Wednesday. Each person should have a lab partner. If you are a single, either write your name down on an empty spot or next to the name of another single name. Your lab time and partner will be set for the next few weeks until we are finished with the robots.
(2) Read homework assignment #1 which is posted on the class web site http://www.icaen.uiowa.edu/~cie/homework.htm.
(3) Write pseudo code for your program before you come to lab or else you will be asked to leave.
(4) I will go over the lab and answer your questions in class on Monday.
(5) Helpful documentation on the robots can be found at http://www.icaen.uiowa.edu/~cie/labs.htm

You must attend your lab session to get full credit on the homework assignment.
