CS310: Problem Solving Using Computers
HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENTS - Lec 1, Spring 2013

Policies

All homework assignments are to be completed individually.
Homework solutions must be submitted for grading as described in the homework write-up.
Include your Name and Lab number at the top of each file.
Code and the output produced by it must be printed out from MATLAB or Maple unless otherwise specified by the homework. Check your printouts carefully to make sure that everything is printed as desired (e.g., no lines of code were cut off by the edge of the paper).
Some homework assignments are to be submitted electronically by uploading to your Learn@UW Dropbox. Be sure to click Submit and wait to complete the dropbox submission process.
Sign in to Piazza to ask and view responses to homework questions.

Late Policy

Homework assignments are accepted up to 24 hours late with a 10% penalty.

An Important Note About Output

You will usually be required to turn in output (results from running your code) along with the commands or code you have written in MATLAB or Maple. Any output that you turn in must come from your code. Turning in output that was not produced by your code is academic misconduct. You should turn in the output for your code even if you know it is incorrect or produces an error message. When the homework is graded, it is the commands and results that are graded for correctness. Output that contains incorrect information or error messages help the graders understand your code so that they can assign partial credit and give you useful feedback.

Collect any printout from public printers as soon as possible and document when and where any printouts were unable to be found.

Academic Misconduct

There is no collaboration allowed on homework problems!

Submitting someone else's work as your own is academic misconduct. Do your work yourself using only the code and instruction we provide. Do not search the internet or view your friends work from current or previous semesters. Submitting work that was written (in full or partially) by someone other than yourself (or us) is Academic Misconduct. Academic Misconduct includes (but is not limited to):

viewing, discussing, copying, rewriting, etc. previous semester's solutions
viewing, discussing, copying, rewriting, etc. other students' printouts

Do not "check" your answers with your friends or classmates before submitting your work. This is academic misconduct.

Cheating and plagiarism will result in a zero on the assignment and potentially other penalties if University Academic Misconduct rules are violated (see the Academic Misconduct Guide for Students).

Questions?

Every semester there are students who have to face the consequences of violating the course policies. These consequences have included lowered scores, lowered final grades, failing grades, and letters to the Dean's Office as well as in their permanent academic files. It is your responsibility to make sure that you understand and follow the course policies for CS 310 as well as University rules regarding academic misconduct (see the Academic Misconduct Guide for Students).

If you have any questions about the course policies, please do not hesitate to contact the Course Coordinator (Beck Hasti).
