The newsgroups are a forum for discussion. As such, rude and irrelevant posting is not allowed. Everyone is to do their own work. Programming Assignments Programming assignments will make up the bulk portion of the work in this class. As this is a programming language course, the importance of these assignments cannot be stressed enough.
Collaboration is encouraged within the context of discussing algorithms and general approaches.
Students can assist each other in debugging their programs as well. On-line notes may also be helpful. However, the code for each assignment must be written individually by each student. This also excludes the usage of outside libraries downloaded off the Internet or accessed by other means. To do this properly requires the use of documentation.
