Grading system for Lab Exercise #2

Students in my lab should demonstrate the exercise to me before the end of the 3rd lab. I have a preference to not receive lab exercise #2 programs via email. Following a demonstration, if the program does not have the appropriate level of polish, students can revise the program and re-demonstrate it.

The following checklist will be observed in order to pass the demo:

• unused descriptors should be closed
• the parent must fork off a child for each input line it receives
• no extra processes should be running afterwards: each child should exit after processing a line of input
• the child should manipulate the text in some way
• the child must link it's stdout to the pipe that is read by the parent
• answers to the exercise questions should be known
