Programming assignment policies:
- C, C++, Java, Perl and Python are the preferred programming
languages for the homework assignments. If you want to use R or
Matlab, make sure that the TA can run your code on the biostat
servers.
- No third-party libraries may be used. Only the standard library
for the chosen language may be used.
- Code must compile and run on the biostat servers (Linux).
Written assignment policies:
- Written assignments and problems are also to be submitted electronically in the appropriate "handin" directory.
- We strongly recommend that written problems be written up in a word processing program and graphics be created by computer.
Homework submission policies:
- Homeworks are due at midnight on the due date.
- Homeworks should not be emailed to the instructor.
- Each student has five free late days to use during the semester.
Once these are exhausted, late homeworks will be penalized 10 points per
day.
- Each day counts as a late day (e.g., if the HW is
due on Friday and you turn it in the following Monday, it is 3 days late).
- Issues related to homework/grades must be resolved within 1 week of distribution of grades.
- No homeworks will be accepted more than five days late.
Academic Misconduct:
All examinations, programming assignments, and written homeworks must
be done individually. Cheating and
plagiarism will be dealt with in accordance with University
procedures (see the
Academic Misconduct Guide for Students).
Hence, for example, code for programming assignments must not
be developed in groups, nor should code be shared. You are
encouraged to discuss with your peers, the TAs or
the instructor ideas, approaches and techniques broadly, but not at a level
of detail where specific implementation issues are described by anyone.
If you have any questions on this, please ask the instructor before you act.
