For questions regarding homework, we encourage you to use piazza to raise discussion and we will answer ASAP. If necessary you can email instructor and TAs. For on-campus students, we will schedule TA office hours.

As a practical class, we will have a lot of programming questions. Please strictly follow submission instructions in each homework, especially naming and structure of submission. It's your responsibility to make sure your submission is compilable and runnable in standard teaching environment with provided code skeleton. Non-runnable code will directly lead to 0 score. You are not allowed to change any existing function or class names from provided skeleton code unless got permission from instructor or TA. Otherwise, your submission may fail our tests and got penalty in your score.

COLLABORATION & GROUP WORK

Homework assignments are strictly individual efforts, while final projects can be done by small groups (3 people or less) or individuals. You can discuss high level concepts regarding to lectures or homework on the piazza but you shouldn't share your own (or others') solution and code with other students (either on piazza or through other means).
