This assignment serves two purposes. First it gets your account set up, second it forces you to figure out how to compile code linked against OpenGL. I suggest that you not wait until the last minute to get this done. The chances are that you’ll encounter some minor snafu such as problems linking against OpenGL or trouble figuring out the turnin program. Whatever the problem is, it will probably be something minor but figuring it out will take some time. 1. In your CS-184 class account home directory, create a sub-directory named public_html. In this directory place an HTML page named index.html. This web page should contain: • Your name• Your preferred e-mail address• A photo of yourself• Any other information about yourself that you think is interesting and would like to share• A place where you will later add links to pages where you will post your assignment results2. Feel free to customize this page and make it something that represents you. Keep it read-able and make sure we can easily locate the above required items. Do use any auto-playing music because that’s tacky and Prof. O’Brien finds it irritating.3. The files referenced by the above mentioned web page should all be contained in the pub-lic_html directory or a subdirectory of that directory.4. The directory, public_html, and the files in it should be world readable. Your home directory should be world searchable but not world readable. To test, try loading the URL for your class account which will be something like http://inst.cs.berkeley.edu/~CS184-xx5. Optional, but suggested: Create a file named .forward in your CS-184 class account home directory that contains a single line of text. This line of text should be the e-mail address that you check most regularly. This file will cause any e-mail sent to your cs184 account to for-ward to whatever address you put in the file. (Check that the forwarding works by sending your cs184 account e-mail and see if it shows up in your regular e-mail.) 6. Go to the class web page and in the resources section you will find example code #1. Com-pile the code and run the resulting executable. You should see a window open up with a red rectangle and orange triangle.7. Modify the example code so that it draws “something interesting” using 2D polygons. Some suggested examples: write out your name, draw a maze, make a picture of some sort. Be creative. OpenGL can handle a lot of polygons and you know how to program loops... per-haps you could write code to generate an interesting pattern. Feel free to do more than one thing and cycle through them when the spacebar is pressed.8. Take a screen shot of the program running after you have modified it, make a web page that shows off your image, and link this “Assignment 1” page from your CS-184 home page.9. Use the submit program to submit a directory containing the following:CS 184: Foundations of Computer Graphics page 1 of 2Fall 2009Prof. James O’BrienAssignment #1Point Value: 20 pointsDue Date: Sept 5th, 11pm• a single text file with your name, student ID number, CS-184 account username• a JPEG image with a picture of yourself• the code you modified from the OpenGL example The text file must be named “info.txt” and items should appear in the order given above with each item on a separate line. The image file must be named “photo.jpg” and it should have a clear picture of yourself that would allow someone to recognize you. Note that including the photo of yourself is not optional. If you have a privacy concern regard-ing posting a picture of yourself on the web, then please contact the professor prior to the dead-line for this assignment.Do not put your student ID on your webpage.This assignment must be followed exactly. If you don’t then the scripts that process the sub-mission won’t work, the TA will have to do extra work, and you will lose an easy 20 points.
