Naming LICENSE file for Lab

Open baron-zeng opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Hi Mike,

In the lab instructions, you asked us to create a file called LICENSE, which contains the open source permission. However, for GNU General Public License, they said to create a file called COPYING. Does it matter if my file is called LICENSE or COPYING?

Thanks, Baron

Either filename is fine. LICENSE has become more standard than COPYING, so you will usually see people use that name now.
