Assignment 1 results

The results for assignment 1 were posted in the grade register.
Some of the homeworks are suspected of cheating. According to the rules we can give these homeworks -15 points. We decided that if the students come clean and explain, we will give full points to the source and 0 points to the person who copied.

For any grading related problem, including cheating, you can contact me at constantin.tudorica@cti.pub.ro.

Assignment 2

Latest Update: 31.12.2015 We made 3 more sample tests available for the second problem.

The second assignment has been published here.

You are now able to upload the archive with your solution, for automatic judging on vmchecker. You can log in on it using your moodle accounts.

Sample tests for the two problems: sample_tests (these are some of the tests actually used for evaluating your solution)

If you choose to implement in Java, the archive must contain:

• Forest.java
• Wrob.java
• Readme

Important! The java files must not have any package declaration in it. If it has, then remove it before uploading the archive. Otherwise, only if you want to use a different structure, you will need to provide a Makefile.

If you implement in C/C++, you need to provide a Makefile with at least these 3 rules:

• build – a rule to build the binary files
• run-p1 – a rule that runs the binary for the first problem
• run-p2 – a rule that runs the binary for the second problem

Makefile examples:

• Makefile for C++
• Makefile for Java

Remember to describe in the Readme file the algorithm used in your solution, and its complexity.

Coding style suggestions.

The deadline for the assignment is 03.01.2016 23:59.

Any questions can be addressed as comments on this post.

Note: If you wish to solve the assignment in a different programming language (Python, Matlab, etc.) send us an email with the name of the chosen programming language and the compiler/interpreter that you plan to use. Also, don’t hesitate to contact us if you have a question related to the programming language that you’ve chosen.

VmChecker

We will only accept homeworks submitted on the vmchecker platform.

If you have problems with accessing it (no moodle account, moodle account not working) you can email me at constantin.tudorica [at] cti.pub.ro and I’ll fix them as soon as possible.

For any other vmchecker related problems you can post comments to this post.

FAQ

1. Can I submit a homework after the deadline on Vmchecker?
   Yes you can, vmchecker automatically applies deadline penalties.
2. No make rule found although I added one?
   The archive should contain the Makefile in it’s root.
