Homework Instructions
As per the syllabus, homework assignments are due on Tuesday's at 3:55pm before class.
Theoretical Questions
For answers to theoretical questions, please either:
- handwrite your answers neatly, with complete sentences, and with sufficiently dark pencil or pen, or
- type your answers with complete sentences and valid mathematical notation.
Please print your answers to the theoretical questions and physically turn them in to the professor on the due date.
Programming Questions
The programming questions should be answered by filling in the provided template notebooks, either in Google Colab or in an offline Jupyter Notebook. You may use alternative programming languages, and you may use an alternative to an interactive notebook to compute your answers. However, please note the following.
- You must submit the output of your code, and you must submit your discussion as required by the programming questions. I will not compile or run any source code that you send me. No output means no answer.
- The output of your code should be in the same format as provided by the code template. If you are missing output, you will not gain those points.
- I will only help you debug your code if you use the provided template, or if your implementation is sufficiently close to the one in the template.
- The discussions should be short: no more than a few sentences per question. They will be graded for completion. The code output will be graded for correctness.
For the programming questions, please print out and submit your source code, output, and discussions alongside your answers to the theoretical questions. If you use a Python notebook, I find that Vertopal does a pretty good job at converting your notebook to a printable PDF.
Late Work
Also, as per the syllabus, you may submit homework up to 48 hours late, i.e. by Thursday 3:55pm before class. There is an automatic 10% deduction for late work. You must speak with the professor if you need to submit late work past 48 hours. I cannot grant extensions. Any work turned in after the extension period will receive a 0.
Late answers to the may be physically submitted to me on Wednesdays during lab or office hours, or to the professor on Thursdays before class.
