AssignmentsThere will be approximately five programming assignments. Late assignments will not be accepted. The assignments will demonstrate concepts learned in class. The assignments will be handed-in by posting to Blackboard.
Exams
A mid-term and a final
Project
Each student completes an individual final project. This project should not necessarily be the most challenging (i.e. the final project is weighted the same as the other four assignments). The topic of the final project is entirely up to the student. You should discuss the project with the instructor.
Grades
Based on the following weighting:
- Assignments50%
- Midterm exam20%
- Final exam30%
Grading is on a curve, modified to account for overall class quality.
MISSED EXAM: By prior arrangement only, or due to an immediate personal emergency.
Cooperation
It is reasonable for you to discuss approaches to problem solutions with each other. It is unreasonable to collaboratively work out a detailed solution, to copy a solution, or to give away a solution.
