Module 2

Pre-reqs: You should have completed Module 1

Synopsis

In Module 2, we will learn:

• how to write our own functions
• how to inspect and manipulate strings
• how to accept user input as "command line arguments"
• learn about some new data types like char and array

These skills will eventually allow us to do some real cryptography (the art of writing or solving secret codes) -- we'll use code to become codebreakers!

By the end of this module you will have completed Problem Set 2.
