Policies

The homework assignments and projects that you turn in are intended to represent just your own work. We encourage you to work together in terms of understanding problems, finding programming errors, and helping each other learn the material. The actual calculations and/or programming, however, should be your work alone.  Since a primary way of student assessment and learning this subject is by individual computer work, no homework or project code or spreadsheets may be exchanged among students.

Late homework assignments may be penalized. Once a homework assignment has been graded and returned, no further submittals will be accepted for that assignment.  Homework must be neat; illegible or incoherent papers will be returned ungraded and no credit given.
 

There will be one mid-term exam and a comprehensive final (120 minutes long). The exams will be closed book and closed notes.

Prior to the end of an exam the time remaining will be announced. You should be prepared to submit your exam paper at the end of that time. At the end of the exam period the instructor or proctor will leave the room with all submitted exam material. Absolutely no exam material of any kind will be accepted by the instructor or proctor after leaving the exam room.

The basis of grading for this course will consist of the following components with the indicated weights:
