Course Contract

This course proposes a series of teorical lectures and practical exercises. Modules are divided in weeks, each in a different folder, and you will find the theory and practice in that folder. To pass this course you will need to:

• pass the exams (see Calendar.md)
• make a presentation (see Calendar.md)
• do at minimum all the homework in the exercises (file Exercises.md in each folder) => Each week will feature mini quizzes about the homework of the past week
• watch all the videos of the lectures not done during the lectures (yes there are videos for 99% of the support)
• write (short) weekly reports to tell us your activity. Remember, focus on the important things, and show us that you are learning.

Make a group

Some of the activities during the course require group organization. For example, this is the case for reporting and presentations.

Make your groups and create a folder inside the Groups directory. Choose a name for your group and use that as folder name. Put inside your group folder

• a file with your full names and emails
• all your activity and reports

make recurrent pull requests to update it.

For example, imagine that Jeanne D'arc and Tintin LeBelge are together in a group called RevolutionX. They create a directory RevolutionX

Groups
    - RevolutionX
        - members.md (names and emails)>
        - report-week01.md (one section for Jeanne, one for Tintin)
        - report-week02.md (one section for Jeanne, one for Tintin)

FAQ

Solving SSH problems in Git/Github

Make sure you have correct configured you authentication setup

• If you want to use SSH authentication
  • set up your SSH keys with a recent encryption, check github's instructions
• upload your public keys to github
  • If you want to use HTTPS authentication (or not do the SSH setup)
  • change Icebergs setting, "Metacello Integration" with the value HTTPS
  • create an access token to be able to push (and make sure of giving it permissions by ticking the check boxes)
