Your source code files should follow a specific format and you will submit them to me in a specific way. These rules make it easier for me to automate the collecting and compiling of your homework assignments, so it is important that you follow them carefully.
Format for your source files.
- At the very beginning of each of your source files there should be a C-style comment containing the course number, your name, and the assignment number. An example below shows how you are to format this. After this comment are your import statements. After the import statements are your class definitions. Right after the closing brace of a class (or method) definition there should be a C++ style comment containing the name of the class (or method). Here is an example of how a source file should look.
/*
Course: CS 27500
Name: Jean Shepherd
Assignment: 0
Any other comments that you want to make...
*/
import java.awt.*;
public class CS275HW0Shepherd
{
public static void main( String[] args )
{
// put code here
}//main
}//CS275HW0Shepherd

Your solution for an assignment will probably make use of a few source files. What I want you to turn in is a zip file containing all of the source files for your solution. I want you to follow a very strict rule for naming your zip file. The name of your zip file should be of the form CS275HW0Surname.zip . The number between HW and Surname is the number of the homework assignment. And Surname is of course your last name. If your surname has more than one part, concatenate the parts together so that the file name does not have any spaces in it.
Submitting your assignments.
When you are finished with your assignment, submit your solution using the Blackboard "Assignments" tool for this course. When you are on the "Edit Submission" page for an assignment, click on the "Add Attachments" button. In the popup window, click on the "My Computer" icon, which brings up a Windows file chooser dialog. Use the dialog box to navigate to your assignment zip file that you want to submit. After you click on the "Open" button from this dialog box, you will be back to the Blackboard "Edit Submission" page. Click on the "Submit" button at the bottom of this page. After you have submitted an assignment, it will move from your "In" box to your "Submitted" box. If you should need to re-submit the assignment, you can move the assignment back to your "In" box.
If your assignment is not finished but you want to e-mail it to me in order to ask a question about it, then use the following procedure. Put your question in the body of the mail message and either attach your source code or put it in the body of the mail message, whichever you think is more appropriate. The subject of the e-mail message should be of the form "Question: CS275HW0Surname".
