Both endgame evaluators are now extra credit

It has been brought to our attention that there was a misprint in the starter code of the TestedEvaluator, which incorrectly labeled the EndgameEvaluator as extra credit. Because of this, both parts of the EndgameEvaluator (endgameEvaluatorTest0 and endgameEvaluatorExtraCreditTest) are now extra credit. The assignment docs will NOT be updated to reflect this due to Frontdesk limitations. I personally apologize for the misprint.

My office hour today(4/28) is moved

I'm moving my office hour today to 2:00-3:00 on this Thursday instead of the usual time. It will be still in the west wing cluster. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Chess assignment released

The chess assignment is now released on FrontDesk. Please read the assignment documentation carefully before starting--consider printing a copy so that you can easily make notes. As mentioned in the docs, each student can register for a chess server account at http://www.link.cs.cmu.edu/211/sign-up.html. Please do NOT use a password that you use anywhere else, as the passwords are stored in plaintext.
