Lab #3 - Introduction to Hadoop
Due: Tuesday, April 6, 2010 at 11:59PM

Overview

The purpose of this assignment is just to get you set up with the tools of the trade. You are asked to work your way through the Hadoop tutorial and to perform some basic tasks. Project #4 will involve a much more extravagent application of Hadoop.

No Partners

As the only goal of this assignment is to "Turn a very small wheel once", you are asked to do it by yourself. You'll have trouble contributing as an equal partner in the next lab, unless you can do something small-ish by yourself, to be sure.
