Submission

Required file naming:

Lab3-lastname.xlsx

Submit this file on Brightspace as an excel spreadsheet. Do NOT submit as a pdf!

Note: It is a good idea to submit early (you are allowed extra submits). It seems the

network goes down right about the time of the deadline. The network going down is not an excuse for not submitting your lab on-time.

All labs must be submitted through Brightspace. If a lab is not submitted properly, it will not be graded. Emailing your lab to the professor does NOT count has properly submitting your lab.

NOTE: You may submit as many times as you like until the deadline. We will only review your final submission. If you submit during the late period, your assignment is late and will lose 10% as a penalty.

Guidelines and Policies

This is an individual lab assignment. You must do most of the work on your own. It is permissible to consult with classmates to ask general questions about the assignment, to help discover and fix specific bugs, and to talk about high level approaches in general terms. It is not permissible to give or receive answers or solution details from fellow students.

You may research online for additional resources; however, you may not use material that was written specifically to solve the problem you have been given, and you may not have anyone else help you write the material or solve the problem. You may use resources found online, providing that they are appropriately and clearly cited, within your submission.

By submitting this assignment, you agree that you have followed the above guidelines regarding collaboration and research.
