The project percentages reflect the difficulty of the projects. In addition, Project 2 will build on Project 1 and Project 3 will build on Projects 1 and 2. If your design for Project 1 is poor then Project 2 and Project 3 will be next to impossible to receive credit.
All projects will be written in C++ and will run under UNIX.
If the design is not turned in, you will lose 10% of the project grade.
A -- 90% - 100%
B -- 80% - 89.99%
C -- 70% - 79.99%
D -- 60% - 69.99%
How to achieve success in this course:
Come to all classes. YOU are responsible for all information provided in class.
If you have a question, come and receive an answer from me. I promise to be receptive to all questions.
Contrary to popular belief, I will not write your programs or give you a design for your programs.
This course is time intensive. If you do not start on the project immediately, you will not finish it. They can not be done in one day.
Homework will be suggested (almost everyday). DO IT!! Grades may be given for homework.
