Also, totally confused by the various due dates.  Isn't problem set one due tomorrow?

What is the first problem set?

anonymous · Answer

The first and last name problem is the first problem set.  I got the code to work, but could not find a clean way to add the comments at the beginning.  Copy and paste was clunky but worked.  Editing functions of delete/cut don't work yet...or I have not figured out how to use them as expected.  Btw, I sent email via main Open Courseware contact tab asking where to submit this, too.

Did you start the comments with the # symbol and comments cannot be made within a within a string literal.

anonymous · Answer

I did the # first, yes.  Of course I did not quite get this in the right order on my first time.  (Tried code first...then added name/time/etc; copy and paste into right order)  

I still am unsure where to submit this.  Bah.  Gotta get to bed.  Feel free to post and I will check ASAP in the morning.

Occam's razor moment:  thought I had logged in!!  Turns out I was merely looking at old MIT OpenCourseware videos/problem sets last night.  I am, thankfully, TRULY caught up and "checked"/submitted now.  (*feeling foolish*)

Glad to hear :)
