Grading
Turning in work and late policy
Late work will receive no credit. However, you have one free "late day" that you can use at anytime during the quarter on a homework assignment. A late day gives you one extra day to turn in your homework without penalty. The purpose of this late day is to help you deal with unexpected events, including getting sick, going to the doctor, or any other events that might cause you to turn in your homework late.If you'd like to use a late day, please email the professor and the TA to let us know.
You will turn in project milestones and homework via Github.
Cheating policy
I have a no tolerance policy on cheating, which includes copying from friends and plagarism. If you get caught cheating, you will get an F in this class and I will turn you into the univerisity's academic integrity group.
