## Lab Work
The week 1 lab report assignment is now available on Gradescope and is due Tuesday evening.
The only work you need to submit for this week is `partC.c` from the C basics lab.
Make sure you add your lab partner(s) when you submit so everyone receives credit.

We will discuss code style soon, but for now just make sure the code you write inside of curly braces is indented one level deeper than the outside the braces.

## Git Setup
Make sure you complete the `git` setup lab on your own account;
every student will need to do this to be ready for Tuesday.
