Your source code files should follow a specific format and you will e-mail 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.

Your source files.

Your solution for an assignment will usually consist of a few source code files and/or a document file (e.g., a Word, PDF, or TeX document). At the very beginning of each file that you turn in there should be a comment containing the course number, your name, and the assignment number. What I want you to turn in to me is a zip file containing all of the 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 CS316Ass0Surname.zip. The number between Ass 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.

E-mailing your assignments.

When you are finished with an assignment, e-mail me your source code in the zip file. Attach the zip file to your e-mail message. In the body of the e-mail message put your name, the course number, and the assignment number. The subject of the e-mail message should be the name of your zip file, i.e., CS316Ass0Surname.zip.

If your assignment is not finished yet but you want to send it to me in order to ask a question about it, then use the following procedure. Put both your question and your source code in the body of the mail message. The subject of the e-mail message should be of the form "Question: CS316Ass0Surname".
