How to Commit:
-
Place all source files in the source/ dir
-
In general, keep functions pertaining to different effects in different files
-
Name variables descriptively. If a variable pertains to a common physics term or symbol, place that symbol in a nearby comment
-
Comment functions explaining the math in use
-
Add any new effect into this README
General Git Etiquette:
-
DO NOT commit executables (.out files by default)
-
DO NOT make dated folders in any directory except output/
-
In general, avoid committing output files - the output directory is a compromise between programming convention and needs of professors and students in class. Remember - you can always store your outputs in the Google Drive or on iGroups.
-
That said, DO NOT commit output files unless:
-
You have a good reason to track the output (IE, showing new functionality)
-
You have placed the output in a dated directory within the output/ dir
