[CSC 335] So many questions...

[Andrew J. Pounds]

So I got home from a meeting last night to find that my e-mail had blown 
up with requests for help on the project.  Questions related to filters, 
how to fit splines, how to implement root finding with splines, how to 
format the output, etc.  I am very reluctant to extend the deadline 
because I know of at least two students that are about 95% done with the 
project - but I also don't want everyone else to get a poor grade since 
project 2 depends on project 1 working.

I cannot emphasize enough how many of the questions I got last night 
should have come to me WEEKS ago. It's a lot to ask of me, at 11 pm on 
the night before the project is due, to dive into multiple projects 
using multiple languages with hundreds of lines of code to fix problems 
with nebulous questions like "I'm now getting a seg fault -- can you fix 
it for me."   I have and will continue to help you work on your code, I 
enjoy this, but please try to give me a little more guidance and time to 
help address your questions.  I REALLY appreciate one of your colleagues 
that sent in images and plots on Anvil to help clarify their questions.

*I will extend to project 1 deadline to MONDAY NIGHT at midnight.  The 
CANVAS dropbox will also lock at that time.*

If you do have code questions, please push your code to Anvil and raise 
an issue for me to look at it with a clear description of what you think 
the problem is and where you think it is occurring in your code.
