There will be about 13 assignments or small projects. Each assignment may consist of up to one or two programs to write. Assignments will be posted on the course web site and mentioned in the class. Usually they will be due by e- mail on Thursdays by 11:59pm. Keep your homework and a copy of the sent email in your mailbox until the grade is posted. Keep the received back email with grade until the end of the semester. To avoid delays follow the advised subject line and do not use that subject for asking questions.
Late submission: submitted later than at 11:59pm the day it is due will be penalized 10% per each started day until 50% is reached. Late submission penalty may be waived for homework received before instructor starts grading the particular assignment; no credit if submitted after the corresponding exam or after the last day of lectures, or if a sample solution is posted.
There are no exams in Spring 2002. Grade will be based only on the homework programs and projects.
Your final grade: A, B, C, D and F will be determined by your total amount of points earned during the course using: 90%, 80%, 70% and 60% limits. Improvement in work and submission of all homework assignments will be used to determine the borderline cases. Students registered for some sections may be able to check progress in building their grade on-line using GradeWatch at any time.
