Working in the computer science labs

Working in the ANU computer science labs is the default option and everything will be pre-installed for you there. Please also load and read a copy of the User guide for the student computing environment.

Setup hints for your own computer

The basic setup for Ada programming can be installed easily (or it might even be already pre-installed on your machine): The GNAT GPL version provides you with an Ada compiler and a development environment. Besides the version which runs natively on your computer, you should also get a copy of for ARM processors (hosted on your favourite platform or virtual machine).

Details on how to install the graphics packages required for the main assignment will come a little later in the course.
