This is a good idea that someone in the class recommended.

You might want to tell people to try:

url = new URL(getDocumentBase(), "input.txt");

this way that you do not need to be concerned about the correct directory
name as long as the files are in the same directory.

Subject: program output

Basic Algorithms class:

Some students are having a problem in that the output gets messed up
when you scroll down in the browser.  This problem should be solved by
having the entire process of creating the heap, reading the file,
etc., happen in (or be called from) the paint() method in the applet
(as I recommended in recitation, and in a previous email, I think).
