  3. (10 pts) List at least two times that you and your pair programming partner can get together between now and next Thursday at 11AM, for at least 1-2 hours.

    Preferably, this time should be during the times that CSIL is open.During Summer 2009, CSIL is open Monday-Friday from 8:30am to 5:30pm.

    If you can't find a time to get together when CSIL is open, be sure that at least one of you has a laptop that is set up to work with Python and the cTurtle module, that has good wireless access, and that you have a place you can work together with a good wireless connection.

    NOTE: If you cannot find any such times, you may need to switch partners—if so talk to your TA. But before you do that, I want to encourage you to reallly try hard to find two such times.





















  4. (6 pts) Please email the times you listed in item 3 to each other
