inverse_clex's Issues

Repository layout

Congrats! Your first repository. A couple things that we should keep in mind:

1. We don't want to store binary executable files in the repository. Look up how to use '.gitignore' files to avoid commiting files like the 'inverse_clex' executable.
2. It's typical to store c++ header and source files separately. A typical project structure might have a '/h' or '/include' directory where the header files (files containing class and function declarations) are stored, a '/src' directory where the source files (containing function definitions) are stored, and a '/bin' directory where the executables are stored after compilation and linking
3. It's nice to have a 'Makefile' which compiles the code for the user and puts executables in the '/bin', so that they don't have to remember any options needed for the compiler. This is not so important yet since we aren't linking to anything, but still nice to have.

Try taking a look at other open source c++ projects on github and see how they have set up their repositories.

Stop adding executables!

Hi guys,

Stop adding executables to the repository! Please check 'git status' before doing a commit. If there are any binary files that would be added, stop and remove them and add them to the .gitignore files. Please remove the ones already in the repository.

The repository should only contain our source code, test input files, and the like. Do not put binary files, executables, or test output files in the repository.

Thanks!
