Important Instructions for Repository Setup

Written on 01.12.2022 15:13 by Sven Rahmann

Dear all,

we have tried to extract your personal information from the gitlab repositories and decided that we must take a more formal approach; currently it is impossible to parse the README files consistently. Here are detailed instructions. Please follow them carefully.

1. Make sure you have forked the following repository: https://gitlab.com/lamdv1/programming-with-python-2022 (click on the "Fork" button somewhere in the upper right area)

2. Make sure you set the repository to "private", but give at least "reporter" access to us (guest access is not sufficient). Our usernames and detailed instructions can be found in a slide set (Materials) of week 03.

3. Now edit the README.md file as follows to insert your personal details as follows at the very top (before the heading) of the file.

---
name: Jens Zentgraf
mat: 1234567
aocname: Jens Zentgraf
aocnumber: 654321
---

# Programming with Python template


Here, "name" refers to your real name (as it appears in official university transcripts), "mat" is your matriculation number, "aocname" is the name you use in AoC (as shown in the private Leaderboard) and "aocnumber" is your AoC user number. You can find it in AoC by clicking on "Settings". You can show yourself by name (even with a picture) or as "(anonymous user #654321)". This number (here shown as 654321) is your user number in AoC.

Please make sure that there is no empty line before this header,  and the first line is exactly three (3) dashes (---).
Please make also sure that the header ends with the same three dashes (---) and that there is an empty line after it. The next line after the empty line should be the original heading (# Programming with Python template).

4. Please note that in the original README.md, some wrong information was given. Here is the correct information, and you can edit the file to reflect these corrections. We apologize for the confusion.

  • Input data files from AoC should be saved as day01.txt (not .inp)
  • Final deadline is 31.01.2023 !

If there are any remaining questions, please use the forum or ask the tutors in your tutorial.
