Turning in Assignments
All assignments should be turned in via LearningSuite. In general, your submission should only consist of a single source code file. In the case that multiple source code files are needed, please turn them in as a single ZIP file (please don't use gzipped tar files, RAR files, 7zip files, etc.!).
For each assignment, the corresponding docker container will contain an automatic grading harness with a few test cases. You should make sure that your submission passes those test cases! We do not provide tests for everything that your code should do, and we do not provide tests for all possible ways your code could be wrong. You are strongly encouraged to write your own test cases. The test cases we provide are mostly to ensure that your code compiles and can be interpreted in our environment, and that IO/formatting issues are resolved.
Docker
Throughout the class, we will be using Docker, a virtualization technology that allows us to provide a standardized execution environment. Hopefully, this will help simplify the installation of software, and will eliminate issues related to different computing environments / software versions.
Please take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the basics of Docker.
