Test your code on UF's remote server

In data structures, we need to test our C++ code on a Linux machine before submission. There are two ways: (1) virtual machine and (2) ssh into our school server.

Method 0

Don't use C++. I wish... Read this and be entertained.

Method 1

Get Virtualbox.

Get Ubuntu.

Install Ubuntu in Virtualbox.

Done.

Method 2

Open up Terminal.

~$ ssh user@thunder.cise.ufl.edu
    
user@thunder.cise.ufl.edu's password:
    
Last login: Tue Jan 19 17:38:37 2016 from xx.xxx.xx.xxx
    
thunderx:1%
    

Grab your code using git clone:

thunderx:1% git clone https://github.com/username/project_name
    

Or wget, whatever floats your boat. Get your code to the server somehow.

thunderx:n% cd project_name
    

Compile with g++:

thunderx:n% g++ foo.cpp -o foo
    
thunderx:n% ./foo
    

Compile with gcc (if you're nuts):

thunderx:n% gcc -Wall -o foo foo.cpp -lstdc++
    
thunderx:n% ./foo
