Zen

Give yourself peace of mind.

What is Zen?

Zen is a tool I built to help give me peace of mind when it comes to my CS labs. This semester, for my first lab at least, I was given an example executable of the working lab. After finishing the lab, I figured I could use these provided examples to create a test program that compares my lab binary to the correct one. If I know my program gives a pretty similar (if not the same) output, I can rest easy knowing I'll get an A on my lab :]

Linux Installation (UTK Lab Machines)

The installation process is pretty easy. First, download the binary from the releases page, and put it into a new folder in your home directory called bin (mkdir ~/bin). Next, run vim ~/.zshrc to open your zsh config and add the following line: alias zen=$HOME/bin/zen

And that's it! Now just use zen in the terminal.

How it works

Basically, after installing just run zen [correct lab binary path] [your lab binary path] [options that need to be passed to each program] (IN THAT ORDER) and then go through the lab program like you would if you were using it. Then, when you're finished, exit the program and watch the differences roll in.
