Submitting

Submit your program by creating a zip file with your last name as the file name and include only the Java files that you wrote. Email the zip file to lqiu@oswego.edu with "CSC535 Assignment 2 - your name" as the subject.

When I extract your zip file, your file should create a directory with your last name and all the code should be in that directory. Do not send your source code directly as attachment to your email because some email program may add line-ending characters to your code which makes it fail to compile on my machine.
