The Almanac subdirectory CLASSIC contains files associated with the book "Classic Data Structures in C++" by Timothy A. Budd (Addison-Wesley, 1994) To obtain a particular file, send e-mail to almanac@cs.orst.edu and include a line with the following format: send classic topic where ``topic'' is one of the commands listed below. Questions regarding the use of the almanac mail server should be directed to almanac-bugs@cs.orst.edu Questions regarding the text should be directed to the author at budd@cs.orst.edu These files are also available via anonymous ftp from ftp.cs.orst.edu, directory users/b/budd/classic. ------ send classic catalog This command instructs the almanac system to send this file. ------ send classic solutions Solutions to exercises are not available on-line (for obvious reasons -- many students know more about using the network than their professors!). However, a solution manual can be obtained by contacting your local Addison-Wesley representative. ------ send classic errata Send a list of known typos, errors, and bugs in the text. If you discover an error, write directly to the author at the address given above. Give the page and line number of the error, and if possible indicate the correction. The errata list will be periodically updated. Please check the errata list before submitting an error report in order to insure you don't submit a duplicate entry. ------ send classic manuscript contents.ps send classic manuscript chapter1.ps send classic manuscript chapter2.ps Use this service to obtain selection portions of the manuscript, distributed in postscript form. The postscript files containing the sources are quite large. These will be automatically broken into many small pieces for mailing. As this causes are large amount of mail traffic, and also requires the receiver to put the pieces back together again, it may be preferable to use anonymous ftp to retrieve these files, if possible. See the beginning of this document for the anonymous ftp directory. ------ send classic glossary.ps Use this service to obtain a postscript file containing a glossary of various C++ terms used in the text. ------ send classic ds Use this service to obtain the sources for the data structures described in the text. Sources are distributed in shell archive format, which can be unbundled by stripping off the mail header and running through the Unix shell command. (Can also be unbundled manually using a text editor). The shell archive file containing the sources is quite large. This will be automatically broken into many small pieces for mailing. As this causes are large amount of mail traffic, and also requires the receiver to put the pieces back together again, it may be preferable to use anonymous ftp to retrieve this files, if possible. See the beginning of this document for the anonymous ftp directory. ------ send classic lafcode Use this service to obtain the sources for the little application framework, a simple application framework for Borland C++. ------ send classic laftext Use this service to obtain a manual for use with the little application framework (see previous command). ------ send classic tests Use this service to obtain a source code for most of the case studies examined in the book ------ send classic slides chapter1.ps send classic slides chapter2.ps send classic slides chapter3.ps, etc Use this service to obtain postscript copies of overhead slides that can be used with the indicated chapters. (Note, there are no slides associated with chapter 5). It is advised that these commands be given one at a time, as they can generate a huge amount of mail traffic. The postscript files containing the slides are quite large. These will be automatically broken into many small pieces for mailing. As this causes are large amount of mail traffic, and also requires the receiver to put the pieces back together again, it may be preferable to use anonymous ftp to retrieve these files, if possible.
