Application: Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition 2nd Profile
Category: Internet
Description: This app allows you to setup a second profile for Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition. Just install it to the same parent directory as Firefox Portable (usually X:\PortableApps\ where you'll then have FirefoxPortable and FirefoxPortable2ndProfile directories) and run it. You can install multiple copies of this app to get a 3rd, 4th, etc profile as well. The app is independent of the version of Firefox Portable installed.Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition 2nd Profile 1.0 Beta 1

- fullpage.sty is part of the other recommended latex package but it's not in mine and CTAN doesn't have it. You can download it from various sites or you can just add the content of it to your doc
Right before \begin{document} add this:
\marginparwidth 0pt
\oddsidemargin 0pt
\evensidemargin 0pt
\marginparsep 0pt
\topmargin 0pt
\textwidth 6.5in
\textheight 8.5 in

Of all the things in latex, this is the one that drives me nuts the most. Maria has instructions on this at the end of http://www-users.itlabs.umn.edu/classes/Spring-2010/csci4511/writenotes.html#tex which includes a link to a bibtex tutorial at http://www.andy-roberts.net/misc/latex/latextutorial3.html
The basic process:
You have a big bibliography file filled with every paper you know of.
You write your paper.
You cite a few of those papers in your paper.
You compile.
Latex can't find the people you cite and adds little questions marks (to the aux file maybe?)
You run bibtex.
Bibtex looks at the little question marks and finds the matches.
Bibtex writes the matches to a file
You run latex again (time #2).
Now latex can find the matching file and adds some of the entries. But not all.
You run latex yet again (time #3).
Now you have a DVI file with all the bibliography stuff in it
Convert to PDF, print, turn in, go out and celebrate
The command line looks something like this:
vi myfile.tex (or whatever; write your doc here)
latex myfile
bibtex myfile
latex myfile
latex myfile
dvips -tletter myfile -o myfile.ps
ps2pdf myfile.ps
- Several questions in HW 2 require you to give concrete examples, emphasis on concrete. i want to make sure everyone understands what that means. Here are some examples:
Bad:
"This won't work on a graph that has loops"
[a scribble with a couple of random nodes and ..., etc. all over the place]
"A tree that is infinitely deep"
"Domains with symmetric, equal cost paths"
"A map with some kind of obstacle in it you have to walk around"
"A domain where time is important"
Good:
[draw a map showing a maze, horseshoe, covered with patches of swamp, etc.]
"trying to get from the front left seat to the rear right seat in our class"
"trying to catch a baseball"
It has been argued that one of the signs of expertise is the ability to take all that academic knowledge in your head and apply it to a real world problem. It also turns out to be a lot harder than most people think. The first set of examples might or might not be correct, but either way, it doesn't prove you actually understand the material and it doesn't prove you can use this information at some future job that will pay you lots of money. If you can actually think of a real-world example of some concept, then that's a pretty good sign that you truly understand it (even better is if you can think of two different types of examples). For this homework, i'd like to see lots of concrete, specific, real-world examples
