Subject: including .c files in other .c files

(This message is being sent to CPSC 215 Students and TA's)

This is such a bad practice that unfortunately it never
pops into my mind to tell you DON'T DO IT. (This reminds me of
the book Coach Hatfield allegedly gave to the football players
in which he attempted to enumerate all the things they weren't
supposed to do. Rumor had it that it grew to over 400 pages but
that he gave up after two players, who were apparently quite
diligent students in CPSC 120 back when we taught how to use
scanners and color printers, started printing their own money,
were arrested for counterfeiting, and then pointed out:
"but Coach... it wasn't in the book!".

Anyhow, its in the book now. DON"T INCLUDE .c files in
other .c files.  I will compile your submission using
the command shown in the previous e-mail and if you
include the .c files in each other, THAT WON"T WORK.
