CS 4500 Assignment #10.
Assigned: Tuesday, 1 April 2014
Due: Tuesday, 15 April 2014

Working in an instructor-approved team of four students
(except for a few smaller teams approved by the instructor),
complete the semester project as specified by the students'
consensus design (as revised).

Your project's source code must be written entirely by
your team.  Your team may not use source code written by
other students, source code obtained from the World-Wide
Web or other sources, and it may not use software packages
that are not already installed on the CCIS Linux machines.

In exceptional circumstances, you may ask the instructor
for permission to use third party source code.  You should
not assume that permission will be granted.

Your prototype must include a README file (which *must* be
in UTF-8 plain text, and must be named README) that

1.  lists all members of your team,
2.  gives the preferred email address(es) for contacting
    your team,
3.  tells the grader(s) how your team's rapid prototype
    can be compiled and run on any CCIS Linux machine in
    the main lab,
4.  acknowledges any third party software used (by permission!)
    in your submitted software.

All of the files necessary to construct and to run your
prototype must be combined into a gzip'ed tar file whose
name ends in tar.gz.  Submit that gzip'ed tar file before
10pm on the date it is due using the submit script that's
described at the course assignments page:

    http://www.ccs.neu.edu/course/cs4500sp14/assignments.html

Your prototype will be graded on these criteria:

1.  the quality of the instructions and documentation
    in your README file,
2.  the ease of constructing and running your prototype
    on CCIS Linux machines,
3.  your program's correctness with respect to
        parsing correct command lines
        sending correct messages
        not sending extraneous messages
        not sending messages too early
        not attempting to create files
4.  your program's record when pitted against other game-playing
    programs in a tournament conducted by the instructor and
    graders,
5.  and the readability of your source code.

Your software's build process must result in software that
can be invoked by cd'ing to the directory containing your
software's executable and executing a command of the following
form:

    ./play4500

New versions of the referee program will be placed within

    /course/cs4500sp14/Assignments/A10
