/etc/policy
The grade will be based on programming and homework assignments and
three tests. Each assignment must be meticulously documented and clearly
identify its purpose, author, and date. The distribution of grades will
be as follows:
| Programming Assignments |
40% |
| Three tests |
20% each |
Anyone desiring an EXC grade after October 29, 1999 must be passing the
course at that point to get EXC.
Old tests are available here
/etc/exam_dates
| Test 1 |
September 22, 1999 |
| Test 2 |
October 27, 1999 |
| Test 3 |
December 8, 1999 (will be non-comprehensive final) |
/etc
Failure to hand in any assignment will result in an automatic zero for
that assignment. If some student is unable to hand in an assignment by
the deadline, he/she must discuss it with me before the deadline.
/etc/note
You have an account on one of the Unix machines on campus and you should
use it for all assignments. Any assignment that fails to run on the Unix
machines automatically gets a zero. You can communicate with all the students
in the class using the email alias cs275-E01@lists.umsl.edu. Any message sent to
this list will automatically go to all the students in the class. It may be a
good idea to print the class notes before you come to class.
