Homework and Project
Homework Assignments
Homework Policies
Submission
Homework is due at 11:59 PM Central Time on the due date. Homework must be
submitted using the handin directory on the biostat server and cannot be
emailed to the instructor or TA. Solutions to written problems must be typed.
Late Homework
Each student is allowed five free late
days to be used on homeworks throughout the semester.
These late days are provided in order to provide flexibility in case
of illness, travel, paper deadlines, etc. so plan accordingly.
There is no limit on the number late days that may be used on any
particular assignment. Only business days are considered
(e.g., homework due on Thursday and turned in the following Monday
is 2 days late). After all late days are exhausted, the maximum possible
homework grade will be reduced by 10% per day. Homework will not be
accepted more than one week past the due date.
Programming Policies
Programming assignments must be completed using Python. Students are responsible
for ensuring that their code runs in the Python environment on the Linux
biostat server. This environment contains Python 3.6 and the following packages:
- matplotlib
- networkx
- numpy
- pandas
- pytest
- scipy
- seaborn
- weblogo
Additional Python packages may be requested on the Piazza forum. This file
can be used to create a conda environment
that matches the Python on the biostat server.
