    Honor code:

    In computer science courses, it is usually appropriate to ask others - TAs, instructors, or other students-for hints and debugging help or to talk generally about problem-solving strategies and program structure. In fact, we strongly encourage you to seek such assistance when you need it. Discuss ideas together, but do the coding on your own. You are permitted to used online resources to help you solve the assignments, but please include references in the code.

    Late assignments:

    Each student will have a total of four free late (calendar) days to use for homeworks. Once these late days are exhausted, any assignments turned in late will be penalized 20% per late day. However, no assignment will be accepted more than two days after its due date, and late days cannot be used for the final project. Each 24 hours or part thereof that a homework is late uses up one full late day.
