Due date: Please complete this exercise by the end of the day on Friday the 24th of January.

Pre-assignment - Create a GitHub account

Before starting the actual Exercise 1 assignment below, you need to have a GitHub account. If you don’t have one yet, please signup for GitHub from here (it’s free to use).

Steps:

1. Go to join

2. Enter a username, email address, and password.

3. Verify that you are a human (finish CAPTCHA test)

4. Answer a few questions about why you created the account (e.g. you’re a student, learning to code etc.)

5. Verify the account via the email that you provided

After these steps you are ready to start the Exercise 1 Assignment below.

Exercise 1 - Start your assignment

You can start working on your personal (private) copy of Exercise 1 by:

• accepting the GitHub Classroom assignment.

Notice that if you are using GitHub Classroom for the first time, it might ask from you a permission to verify your GitHub identity. In such case, choose “Authorize GitHub Classroom”.

You can also take a look at the open course copy of Exercise 1 in the course GitHub repository (does not require logging in). Note that you should not try to make changes to this copy of the exercise, but rather only to the copy available via GitHub Classroom.
