Assignment 4 (1.1)

The spec can be found here large print is here.
Do not attempt the assignment until you have done the following:

1. Checked out a working copy of /ass4/trunk - if you are working on your own machine then checkout there. Tutors will not help with anything else until this is done.
2. Written test programs which communicate over TCP (and exchange at least three lines of text.
3. Written a test program which uses pthreads. (Keep these programs separate so you can use them for sanity checks later).
4. Familiarised yourself with netcat (nc) in both client and server modes.
5. Familiarised yourself with the debugging cheatsheet from the main page.
6. Decided on an architecture (there are a number of valid ways to do the assignment but switching between them once you have started may be hard):
   • Client heavy - Most of the game logic is in the clients and the server simply passes messages between them.
   • Server heavy - Clients pass inputs to the server (possibly after doing some simple validation) and server does all the work.
   • Some combination of the two.
   When making this decision you need to think about what messages will be passed between clients and server.
