Today we

  1. reviewed the template of a webpage. There is a page summarizing it here
  2. talked about an old model of home computer the Sinclair Spectrum ZX.
    3. defined and started our homework for tomorrow (see below; it shouldn't take more than 10-15min).

HOMEWORK:

  1. Go to Wikipedia and read about the story of Sinclair Z80 and the Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Both were little computers manufactured by Sinclair Ltd..
  2. Write a web page with a litle summary (No more than 5 sentences. E.g., when did they come out? how much RAM did they have?) of the history of the Sinclair ZX80 and ZX Spectrum as a web page. Save it on a file called "sinclair.html".

Hint:Take the hello world example and substitute the body content with your summary. Use a heading "Sinclair ZX80" and another "Sinclair ZX Spectrum". Simply copy&paste from the wikipedia page.

Goal:The goal of the exercise is to showcase what we learned so far: how to write headings, paragraphs, and how to use boldface, italics, etc. to structure the content of our web page.
