Problem Sets and Lab Report Submission guidelines

  1. Plain text or pdf are preferred. MS-Office doc(x) and xls(x) files are strongly discouraged since they are not portable, and are prone to corruption.
  2. Attach a single file containing your submission to an email message. If you need to send more than one file, please zip them together. Tar.gz files are also acceptable. Rar files have historically been filtered at the college's email servers, so do not use the .rar file format. If you need to submit source code, place the source files in their own folder, and include them in the single compressed file.
    The name of the compressed file must be:
    XX_YY_ZZ.zip or XX_YY_ZZ.tar.gz
    where
    XX = Your Last Name(s) / team name (for labs)
    YY = Assignment/Lab number
    ZZ = Question Number (if applicable)

    E.g.:
    Cassola_Lab9_Q3.zip
    Cassola_PS1.tar.gz
  3. Include the string CS4740 or CS6740 in the message subject so it will be sorted into the correct email folder automatically. If you do not do this, your message may get lost in my email heap.
  4. You must email them the TA by the due date:
