CSE142 Homework Submission Policy

These policies generally apply to all programming parts of homework assignments. However, particular assignments may have specific instructions, which take precedence over these. Deadlines and procedures for other parts of homework assignments or other (non-programming) assignments will be announced as necessary.

Web submission cut-offs are given in the instructions for each homework.

Submission of submission receipts and other written/printed material should be at the beginning of lecture on the morning of the due date (or the morning before, if the due date is not a lecture day). Written and printed material may, if necessary alternatively be submitted by 1:00 p.m. on the due date in the drop box on the first floor of Sieg Hall. Papers submitted to the drop box must be sealed in an envelope large enough to hold papers without folding. Whether submitted to the drop box or at lecture, all papers must be stapled neatly. To ensure prompt grading, clearly label the envelope (or first page for lecture submission) with the following information in really, really big print:

• course title ("CSE 142")
• name
• student number
• homework number (e.g. "Homework 2, Problem 1 or Part A")
• TA's name (very important!)
• quiz section (usually two letters)

You may lose points if you do not follow these instructions.

Barring exceptional circumstances, web submission of homework will not be accepted after the cut-off time specified in the instructions for the homework.  Web submissions will be accepted but marked as late for a short period of time after the due time, but will stop working altogether after about 20 minutes. You are encouraged, however, to complete all assignments and ask your TA if s/he has time to discuss them with you, even if you cannot receive credit.

Explanation of Turn-In Mechanism

When you submit your program using the turn-in mechanism, we immediately compile it using Sun's JDK 1.3 compiler.  The compiler warnings and errors, if any, are copied into the "receipt" page we return to you.  If you see compiler errors, your program did not compile with our compiler.  It is your responsibility to figure out why, to fix your program so that it will compile, and to go through the turn-in procedure again.

Your program is not run at the time you turn it in.  Instead, we may run it later, while grading it.
