Exercise repo

There are some empty repos that you can use for exercises and write your own sample code. Use them to store all your example programs during the course.

This is how to get going with cloning the exercise repos.

Get the repo

The repo is created in your student area of the course.

You have three exercise repos that you can use as you wish, they are named:

• exercises
• exercisesa
• exercisesb

Clone the repos like this, the example shows how to clone the repo named exercises. Replace xxx with your student acronym.

Go into the repo and see what it contains.

Add a README.md, or make some update to it if the file already exists.

Then commit your changes and check that you can upload them back to GitLab.

Do check that GitLab has the latest version of your files, including your update. Check it by browsing to the webpage hosting it.

Now you are ready to start working in your exercise repo.
