Udacity Linux Workspace

Udacity provides a browser-based Linux Workspace for students.

You are welcome to develop this project on your local machine, and you are not required to use the Udacity Workspace. However, the Workspace provides a convenient and consistent Linux development environment we encourage you to try.

ncurses

ncurses is a library that facilitates text-based graphical output in the terminal. This project relies on ncurses for display output.

Within the Udacity Workspace, .student_bashrc automatically installs ncurses every time you launch the Workspace.

If you are not using the Workspace, install ncurses within your own Linux environment: sudo apt install libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev

Make

This project uses Make . The Makefile has four targets:

  • build compiles the source code and generates an executable
  • format applies ClangFormat to style the source code
  • debug compiles the source code and generates an executable, including debugging symbols
  • clean deletes the build/ directory, including all of the build artifacts

Rubric
