Labs

All labs are due by midnight on the date indicated on the assignment. The first 1 day late is free, every day after that costs 5 points. After 5 calendar days, it is still worth turning in but it will only be worth at most half points. Warn me ahead of time of events that will cause you to miss due dates.

Course Topics

There will be quizzes and tests. There will be considerable code development.

Grading Policy

Final letter grades are determined by the total points you get. I will be using the usual grading scale listed below. I will round up on partial points. If you are within 2 points of the next highest grade, I will move you up. If you are 3 or more points away, I won't. If you are concerned about your performance, contact me at once. After the final, it is too late.

Range (percent)	Letter Grade
90-100	A
80-89.9	B
70-79.9	C
60-69.9	D
0-59.9	F
