Policies for this Course
- All assignments for this course must be completed individually.
- All assignments should be turned in on time. For late projects,
there will be a 15% deduction for each 15 minute period after the due
date.
- You are responsible for keeping a backup of your projects on a
university machine (i.e., gusun or cssun).
- If you use code from sources other than the lecture notes and the
text book, you must acknowledge this use by citing the source in comments
above the function or code segment.
- Students bringing cell phones to class must either set the phone to
vibrate, turn the ringer volume off, or turn the phone off completely.
If your cell phone rings audibly during class, then I'll simply ask you
to gather your belongings and leave for the day.
