Or, if you're not working on CSE, you can download the provided code as a zip file or a tar file.


There is a template file named dictionary_answers.txt which you must use to enter the answers for this exercise.
Download dictionary_answers.txt, or copy it to your CSE account using the following command:
$ cp -n /web/cs2041/20T2/activities/dictionary/dictionary_answers.txt .
