Submitting Work:
You should submit your work through the Blackboard course
website. Your submission should be plain text (ASCII), a Microsoft
Word file, or a PDF file. Any other format will not be accepted, unless
you arrange for
an exception ahead of time due to special circumstances.
Homework assignments will be graded primarily for completeness
and correctness.
No late hand-in homework will be accepted. Exceptions will only be
granted if an extenuating circumstance can be proven to the
instructors satisfaction.
Collaboration / Academic Honesty:
All graded work is expected to be your own, unless the instructor
has authorized collaboration in writing. In particular, you are not
allowed to ask anyone but the instructor or TA for help with your
homework or programming assignments. However, you are free to
discuss the topics and concepts of the course with your classmates,
as long as you do not discuss the specifics of any assignment. Any
violation of this policy could result in failure of the course.
