If

command, ask for a lab assistant to help you!

systems, which catches most viruses, but we make no guarantees!

is a computer dedicated to log in. Log in is regulated on a class by class
basis. If you are required to log in, your teacher will provide you with
a log in number during class. Some classes, such as CS101L, do not require
