* construct two chucku's, according to the following specifications:
+
** like a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haiku haiku], a ''chucku'' should contain exactly 3 lines of code (each less than 80 characters)
+
** each chucku should generate sound
+
** 5/7/5 pattern optional, but try to make the code "pretty"
+
** check out [http://electro-music.com/forum/topic-13512.html one line chuck crazy] to see similarly compact examples
+
** the chucku's should be standalone (i.e., no external audio or chuck files)
+
** (thanks to Chris + kijjaz for the idea)

Deliverables

turn in all files by putting them in your Library/Web/154/hw1/ directory, and concise online documentation + readme

  • 1) source code to the project (*.h, *.cpp, *.c makefile, etc.)
  • 2) online page for your project (should be viewable at http://ccrma.stanford.edu/~YOURID/154/hw1/). It should include:
  • links to your files of various kinds
  • instructions on building the project
  • a short README that
    • conveys your ideas/comments in constructing each program
    • describes any difficulties you encountered in the process
