Assignments: There will be a programming assignment on most weeks. Many of the assignments will build on previous assignments, so it is important that you don't skip any assignment. Limted extra credit will be awarded for extending programs beyond what is required in the assignment.

There are a number of expectations that apply to any programs turned in:

Late Assignments: Assignments are due at the beginning of lecture. Late assignments will not be accepted without a very good excuse. All programs that are turned in must run. Programs that run, but only meet some of the assignment's criteria, will earn partial credit. Turning in a program that does not run will not earn any credit.

Exams: There will be two midterms and a comprehensive final.
