CS1010 Accounts

We will be using a variety of services for CS1010. To take CS1010, please make sure you have the following accounts:

SoC UNIX Account

You can get one here: https://mysoc.nus.edu.sg/~newacct/

This account allows you to access SoC UNIX resources, including the main computing host running Solaris, sunfire, and computer clusters running Ubuntu / CentOS. We will be using the compute clusters for CS1010.

Make sure that "General Unix Servers" and "The SoC Compute Cluster" are enabled in MySoC here: https://mysoc.nus.edu.sg/~myacct/services.cgi

GitHub Account

CS1010 uses GitHub Classroom for programming assignment submissions and grading. You should register for a GitHub account if you do not have one. This account will likely stay with you for the rest of your computing career. So choose your username wisely.

Piazza Account

CS1010 uses Piazza for Q&A and discussion. You should have received an email to register for Piazza.
