  abstract =     "This paper addresses the problem of introducing the
                 UNIX operating system and the C language to
                 professional programmers and system analysts who have
                 had little or no experience with either UNIX or C.
                 Workshops given to industrial employees ordinarily last
                 for no more than a few consecutive days and offer no
                 college credit. In contrast, the course described in
                 this paper required approximately nine days, spread
                 over a three week period, and the students earned three
                 hours of undergraduate credit towards a degree in
                 computer science. A detailed breakdown of the contents
                 of the lectures is given, and examples of the
                 programming exercises done in the laboratory component
                 of the course are presented. Observations on the
                 effectiveness of the approach and suggestions for
                 future improvements in the course are offered in the
                 final section of the paper.",
