Course policies

My general course policies apply to this course.

For this course, all lab projects are to be your own work. You may discuss ideas and approaches with other students and faculty, but you may not share source code for all or part of a lab project. In particular, you should never be in possession of a copy (in any form) of all or part of another student's source code, including students from other sections and students who previously took this course. If you have any questions about the interpretation of this policy, please discuss them with the instructor.

Grading algorithm

Lab projects 50%
Mid-term exam 25%
Final exam (comprehensive) 25%

Note that this algorithm indicates how a grade will be determined for students who have successfully demonstrated mastery of the course objectives. An acceptable level of success in meeting all course objectives is a prerequisite for a passing grade in the course.
