| Assignment 1 appeals | Appeals about assignment 1 should be scheduled individually with Neta.
Legitimate reasons for appeals:
- You have a small mistake in your code, which you think caused you to fail many tests. In that case, you could schedule an appeal and fix it.
- The files you submitted were old, but you have newer version on your t2 account, with timestamps that date before submission day.
- ...
Non-legitimate reasons for appeals:
- 'I think you shouldn't have deducted so many points over this small test.'
- 'I worked really hard on this assignment' - we grade the assignments according to tests passed, and the manual inspection of the code, not according to how much work you've put into it.
- ...

| Important announcement regarding HW2 | Due to the latest update in the FAQ relating inner order amongst collections and order,
and the fact it has come less than a week until HW2 deadline.
The following instruction applies to all students:
Collection and Order inner item order is as written in the FAQ.
This order relates to printing and purchasing these objects when necessary.
However, students who will not change their program to suit that requirement, will not suffer any point deduction (relating to inner ordering only)
Students that have changed or will change their program to fit the mentioned above will receive a suitable bonus to their assignment grade.
Please note that these changes might not be as significant to modify even if you haven't done it so far, depending of course on proper modular design. |

| Exercise 1 deadlines and extensions due to 'מועדי ב | since some of you have to study for exams during the timeframe of the exercise, you might need extension. Therefore, extensions will be given by the following rules:
- 3 days extension, if you & your partner have taken two exams. (Could be the same exam by both of you, one of you taking two exams, or each of you taking a different exam)
- 6 days extension, if you & your partner have taken three exams or more. (Again, any distribution of the three exams among you counts. And if you both took the same exam it counts as two)
To receive this extension, send by mail to Alex a scan of the exams (once they're available). The deadline for sending these scans is May 10th.
Note that only exams that took place after the exercise was published (21/3) count.
Saturday doesn't count when counting extension days.
Students who get 3 days extension will need to submit until 18/4 at 18:00.
Students who get 6 days extension will need to submit until 22/4 at 18:00.
Lastly, students who attended Matam moed B exam of last semester and are retaking the course,
will get an extension for exercise 1 until 22/4 at 18:00.
Contact Alex if you are retaking the course.
Good luck! |
