Thanks, I hope it was useful! The printing thing is an interesting point, because I hear from older people that everyone used to have to type up and turn in their assignments printed out, and handwritten items were refused.
For a long time now, they don't want typed and printed assignments; in fact some of my instructors in primary school would actually look upon these suspiciously - the default assumption is that if you are printing it out you are trying to bypass the anti-plagiarism system. That's also partially why every assignment is turned in online: your writing is run through one or more anti-plagiarism systems (and saved for later use against yourself and others).

Electronic anything, of course, was unheard of; back then the only computer was the big IBM in the computing center and computer science was a subgroup of the math department. Nowadays the most common use for my printer at home is making Amazon return labels.
