Calendar

A calendar of the course is here.

Grading

The course will involve three forms of evaluation: quizzes / in class programming assignments, homework and projects.

The final grade will be the average of the project, in class quiz / programming grades and homework weighted equally.

The quiz / in class programming assignment percentage will be calculated as:

(X1 + ... + Xk) / (P1 + ... + PK)

where the Xi and Pi are the student points and possible points on assessment i respectively.

The homework grade will be calculated in the same way.
