Grading:

The final grade for the course will be determined as follows:

Homeworks: 35%
Midterm: 25% (Nov. 3rd, 7:30-9:00PM, UP B17)
Final: 40% (scheduled for Dec. 17th, 2:00-4:30pm, Ives 305)

You will be able to track your homework/exam scores throughout the semester via the CMS website.

Homework:

There will be roughly 6-8 homework assignments spaced out over the course of the semester, all of equal weight. The lowest homework score will be dropped prior to calculating your final grade.

Late Homework Policy:

Homeworks must be turned in in class on the day that they are due. Late homework submissions will be penalized 20% for each day late.

Academic Integrity:

It's OK to discuss the problems with others, but you MUST write up solutions on your own, and understand what you are writing. You may not copy any part of someone else's code or written homework. To do so is a violation of the Academic Integrity Code.
