Assignments:

• Assignment Description
• Assignment Submission Web Service (for Assignments #3 and #4 only)
• Late assignments will NOT be accepted unless there is a documented medical reason or some extenuating circumstances. The instructor will be the judge as to whether circumstances are extenuating.
• On both assignments and exams, clarity, simplicity, and organization will be taken into consideration when grading, as well as correctness.
• Students may discuss programming assignments with other students, but the work they submit must be their own. As a rule of thumb, a student should not leave a discussion with anything in writing. Any notes that are taken while talking to other people should be thrown away, since knowledge learned is in the head, and not on the paper.
• The university may use, or require students to submit assignments to, an automated service that will check for plagiarism.
