Computers:
It does not matter what machine you use to implement your assignments. However, your code must be passed off on a Windows PC. Java is supposedly portable but is actually not in subtle ways. DO NOT WAIT until the last minute to make certain your code runs under Windows.
Passoff
All programs are turned in through Blackboard. There is a mechanism to upload files attached to each assignment. You must submit a zip file containing the source code, the compiled class files and any other files necessary to run your program. Your zip file should be named [programnumber][lastname][firstinitial].zip. All submissions should contain a README.TXT file that contains: your name, your email address and the command line to run your program from your root directory.
Late Policy
Programs are due 1/2 hour before class starts on the day the assignment is due. Program loose 10% per week up to a maximum of 40%. There is no way to pass the class by putting everything off until the end. Employers want to know that you can get stuff done on time. Your grade will reflect that.
- ALL PROGRAMS ARE DUE BY NOON ON THE LAST DAY OF CLASS. No late submissions after that time.
Cheating Policy
All programming assignments (unless specifically indicated otherwise) are individual projects. They are designed to test your individual mastery of the material.
Students are encouraged to talk to each other, to the TAs, to the instructor or to search online for ideas and understanding that will help solve the programming assignment. However, the code should be your own. Copying from anyone else or from the internet is a violation of the Honor Code and will be dealt with as such. |
