Something to hand in

1.
Use either emacs or vi to compose answers to question 2.9 from the textbook. Your answer should be within a factor of two of 250 words.

This is not just an exercise in using emacs, it is also a chance to think about some of the issues in the chapter and practice technical writing. Grammar and spelling count, but clarity and conciseness are critical. Think carefully about what you want to say before you write.

Please print your answer, make sure your name is on it, staple the pages together, and hand them in.
