Assignment 4

is here. It is due on Dec 3.

Some Comments on the Project

Your project mark will be given on three factors:

- Overall design and difficulty of the project (70% of grade);
- Project report (20% of grade); and
- Oral presentation (10% of grade).

Your project report should be a relatively brief document (no more than 10 pages double spaced), describing the following:

- Your project's objectives and application;
- How the program is organized and designed; and
- A user manual for any user of the project.

The oral presentations will take place in class on Dec 3, and your project reports and project Java code are due on the same day. You are encouraged to submit both your report and your Java code by e-mail; if this is impossible please contact the instructor to make another arrangement.

The order of presentations on Dec 3 will be determined at random. Please respect your classmates by attending all of the project presentations on Dec 3.

Extension on Assignment 3

Apparently not everyone has seen my update, instructing you to write your own sorting routine. As a result I am granting a short extension on assignment 3, to Friday, November 23, which will give me a chance to announce the restriction in class.
