There is no required lab for this course, but there will be an option drop-in lab on Friday at 1pm.
Reading will be assigned on a weekly basis. The laboratory portion of your grade will be based on exercises assigned during the class period and due on most Fridays. Attendance and participation are required and laboratory exercises cannot be submitted late without a doctor's note.
The exam portion of your grade will be based on two exams administered throughout the semester and one exam administered during the final exam period. You are responsible for being in class on the day of the exam. Make-up exams will be given only in the case of a medical emergency verified by a doctor's note.
The project portion of your grade will be based on seven substantial programming projects assigned throughout the semester. In most cases, your project grade will be based on the code you submit as well as an oral explanation and demonstration of the project on the day the project is due. A project assignment submitted on time is eligible for full credit. A project assignment submitted late by 24 hours or less is eligible for a maximum of 50%. A project assignment submitted more than 24 hours late is not eligible for credit. Extensions will be granted only in the case of a medical emergency verified by a doctor's note.
ALL assignments are to be completed individually unless specified, in writing, on the assignment. Academic dishonesty will NOT be tolerated. This is your warning! Students are encouraged to meet with me if they have questions regarding assignments or this policy. Students caught cheating will face severe penalty.
