Missing homework assignment may result in
failure of this course. Late homework will not be accepted after
the due late date except by prior permission (by TA). See
details
on submitting homework. Note students are expected to put
in
12.5 hours a week for a 4
credit course. This includes 4.5 hours of class and lab
time and 8 hours for reading and homework assignments.
If you can not complete an homework assignment or lab assignment -- TURN
IN WHAT YOU HAVE DONE. TURNING IN NOTHING FOR AN ASSIGNMENT WILL RESULT
IN A NEGATIVE GRADE. YOU SHOULD TURN in ALL ASSIGNMENTS EVEN
IF IT IS PAST THE DUE DATE otherwise you may not be
illegible
to take the exams.
Labs: 2%
Lab
attendance is mandatory. There will be quizzes so come
on time.
Written assignments are to be typed and
turned in by the due date on blackboard (tar or zip multipule
files). You may research solutions to all homework problems
(programming and written). ALL HELP/HINTS/SOLUTIONS must
credited, otherwise it is considered cheating. Remember the goal
is to learn. Remember you are responsible for the correctness of
everything you write. Failure to credit other students or
sources can result in a zero on the homework.
(TBA) Late homework may not be graded after the due date except by
permission. Upload all assignments even if they are late --
missing homeworks may result in you being banned from taking the
test. You are responsible for the correctness of your answers.
You must attempt all homework assignments, failure to do so may result
in zero for all homework and/or zero for quizzes. On some (noted)
assignments you may work in teams of 2, in which case you should turn
on ONE copy of the assignment with both names and include both names
in a comment when you upload your assignment to blackboard.
Understand ability of the solutions is as necessary as correctness.
Expect to lose points if you provide a badly written “correct”
solution. You are allowed to consult other books on homework,
but you must cite your sources and write up your answers in such a way
as to demonstrate that you understand the published solutions.
If you do not turn in homework
assignments you may not be allowed to take the in class tests.
Haskell and Prolog Programming
Assignments:
14%
All programs are an individual
effort. YOU MAY share code with other classmates ONLY AFTER
assignments are turned in . It is better to receive help with
debugging code from the instructor or ta/ca. You can not pass
this course if you don't learn to program simple algorithms using the
different languages paradigms presented in class.
You may discuss homework problems, general strategies or algorithms
with other students in the course, but you may not collaborate in the
development of detail or actual writing of program, e.g. you may NOT
work from written notes developed collaboratively. Students may not
look at other students code for programs to be turned in. If you run
into a programming problem PLEASE keep a balance between receiving
help in debugging and doing your work. It is your own
responsibility to protect your work from unauthorized access. THE GOAL
is for YOU to LEARN how to program.
If you do not turn in your assignments
you may not be allowed to take the in class tests.
NOTE:
Late HOMEWORK -- TBA --10% penalty each day from the due date until
the score reaches 0. Upload all
assignments even if they are late -- missing homeworks may result in
you being band from taking the test.
Presentation and presentation
Attendance:
(3%)
Students will select a
topic
to research and form teams of 2-4 students. Each team will make a
presentation starting the 4rd or 5th week of classes.
Presentations should be between 20-40 minutes. Each team will
submit a 1-2 page abstraction of presentation, references to all
material used, and any presentation material. Each team
members should have limited experience with the topic.
Attendence at all presentations is required. Any unexcused absence
from any presentation can result in a negative grade.
You
must make a presentation to pass this course.
There will be 3 or 4 tests. There
will be a test during finals week. Exact dates of exams will be
announced in class.
Academic dishonesty has no place in a
university: It wastes our time and yours, and is unfair to the
majority of students. Any violation of this code will be penalized and
can lead to failure in the course. When in doubt, ask beforehand!
Copying solutions without rewording and citing IS a violation of
Binghamton
University's Academic Honesty Code and can result in
a zero for the assignment. Repeated offenses will be handle as
detailed in the Student Academic Honesty Code.
