Submitting your assignments:

  • Each assignment specifies a due date and submission method.

  • No late work will be accepted except for serious illness or similar emergencies (notify and work with the Dean of Students and the instructor on these occassions).

  • The code in the files you submit must compile and run without errors. No partial credit will be given for a submission that does not compile.

  • Sumitting material

    All material for your submission must be packaged in a folder named LASTNAME_ASSIGNMENT#. For example, the folder for my first assignment would be called "Kauchak_1". Failure to follow this convention leads to headaches for all and loss of points. When you are ready to submit your assignment, you must drop this folder into the course dropbox.

  • What if I need to upload a newer version BEFORE the due date/time?

    Copy a new folder in, but add a revision number: LASTNAME_ASSIGNMENT#.REVISION#, for example "Kauchak_1.2".

  • How do you drop this folder in the dropbox?

    If you're on a CS lab machine:
         Browse to and drop (or copy) your submission folder into /common/cs/cs160/dropbox/.

    else:
         Complete the following steps:

          Copy your folder to vpn.cs.pomona.edu using the following command
            "scp -r LASTNAME_ASSIGNMENT# USERID@vpn.cs.pomona.edu:/common/cs/cs160/dropbox/"

  • What if I have problems?

    If it's early enough, talk to the professor. If you've waited until the last minute and are having issues, tar AND gzip everything up (alternatively zip everything) and e-mail it to the professor as an attachment. This should only be used as a last resort and we'll need to sit down after and sort out why it didn't work.
