Welcome to the second Machine Problem!

DUE DATE: Tu May 4, 11:59pm

MP4 is a two-part assignment. Detailed instructions for each of the two
parts of MP4 are included in commentary at the top of the files mp4-part1.cu
and mp4-part2.cu. When compiled out of the box, each of these parts should
report an error and exit immediately. Your task is to correctly implement
sections marked TODO: in each part, causing the main() functions of each to
return normally.


SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
=========================

You can submit an assignment from any of the cluster machines by using
our submit script. Th submit script bundles the entire current directory into
a submission. Thus, you use it by CDing to a the directory for your assignment,
and running:

  > cd *some directory*
  > /usr/class/cs193g/bin/submit mp4

This will submit the current directory as your assignment. You can submit
as many times as you want, and we will use your last submission.


1) RUNNING ON PUPS USING OUR MAKEFILE:
======================================

To compile the three problems (part1 and part2), run:
   > make all

To run any of the problems, you can also use the makefile, like so:
   > make run1
   > make run2


2) RUNNING ON YOUR OWN MACHINE USING OUR MAKEFILE:
==================================================

part2 of MP4 requires GPU support for double precision (64b) floating point
arithmetic. The GPUs in the pups cluster support double precision, but your development
machine may not. This is fine -- you can develop in single precision, but you should
verify that your code compiles and runs in double precision on the pups cluster machines.

In order to develop in single precision, you should modify the Makefile by following the
instructions therein.
